Scotland Yard Casebook: The Wimbledon Murderer
News of the Times Episode 340 | 1881
In this episode it is 1881 London, and Dr Lamson’s life is spinning out of control.
Pursued by creditors and in desperation having just committed cheque fraud, he had days before the fraud would be discovered. He has gone through all of the money of his wealthy wife and is running out of options, In his wife’s family, if any of the siblings die, their money is split between the remining siblings. Lamson comes up with a desperate plan involving his wife’s younger brother, physically disabled Percy.
This interesting case was pursued relentlessly by Scotland Yard who, despite Lamson’s planned perfect crime, unpicked the twisting case worthy of a Sherlock Holmes novel.
We take a look at the background, the crime, and the outcome of the Wimbledon murderer in today’s episode of Murderous Mondays
Hosted by Robin Coles.
