Merry Black Widows



Welcome back to Cherry Avenue True Crime Podcast.

 I have two new movies for you, in this continued series, Based on a True Story; a true crime story that is.  

Both are about black widows who chose poison.  Interestingly, they were both southern women and were operating around the same time period.  One in North Carolina and one in Alabama.

The Black Widow Murders: The Blanche Taylor Moore Story (1993)

and

Wife, Mother, Murderer (1991)

We cover the movies and go behind the movies for the true story it was based on.

Two main features this week:

Also, the mysterious case of a War Hero, Robert Nichols, who took the identity of a young boy who died in 1945.  Robert Nichols was found dead, having committed suicide.  He was found under the name of Joseph Chandler III. The story of how they solved the case of his real identity and the questions of why?  Why did he leave his family and why did he hide his identity?

As always, there are some historical newspaper clippings at the end about cousins shooting cousins.
