The Blackpool Poisoner / Sarah Ann Ricketts / Louisa Merrifield - Part 3

The Blackpool Poisoner / Sarah Ann Ricketts / Louisa Merrifield - Part 3

Louisa and Alfred Merrifield were jointly accused of murdering their landlady and employer, Sarah Ann Ricketts. Yet, as the trial unfolded—and Alfred took the stand after his wife—it became clear that they were not being treated equally. In this third and final instalment, we delve into the stark divide in how their stories ended: one concluded in the courtroom, while the other’s life was hanging in the balance… (Part 3 of 3).
