Grief, Suspicion and Murder - June 19 2025

December 25th: Delia Green Killed (1900) There is nothing more dangerous than an embarrassed man. It’s a saying heard time and time again and one that has become very familiar amongst women. On December 25th 1900 a young girl, so young she was barely a teenager, lost her life at the hands of a boy whom she embarrassed. A girl whose story, though changed overtime, became the subject of many a song.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delia_Green, https://heathermonroe.medium.com/the-poetic-death-of-delia-green-2b5d9cd800dc, https://www.savannahnow.com/news/20200307/savannahs-blues-muse-delia-green-gets-headstone-120-years-after-her-murder, https://hauntedsavannahtours.com/delias-gone/, https://dylanchords.info/36_wgw/ballad_of_delia_green.htm, https://www.countrythangdaily.com/johnny-cash-delia-gone/, https://www.countrythangdaily.com/johnny-cash-delias-gone/, http://kzfr.org/broadcasts/490 Learn more about your ad choices.

December 24th: Lois Petrie Killed (1972) Just because someone looks like a kindly stranger, doesn’t mean that they are safe. On December 24th 1972 a woman was seen for what would be the last time. A woman whose life was tragically ended by a man who just so happened to look like jolly old St. Nicholas but, in reality, was about to start a deadly career in serial killing.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolph_Laudenberg#Murders, https://woman.forumdaily.com/en/santa-dushitel-neprazdnichnaya-istoriya-sedovlasogo-manyaka-iz-kalifornii/, https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/72135904/lois-gwendeen-petrie, https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sdut-octogenarian-convicted-of-womans-christmas-eve-2006nov21-story.html, , https://medium.com/crimebeat/the-santa-strangler-was-caught-almost-30-years-after-his-murders-c6cf08100a3dhttps://www.lapdonline.org/central_news/news_view/20983, https://www.nbcnews.com/id/wbna25142725, https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2006-nov-21-me-killer21-story.html Learn more about your ad choices.
