In 1935, a young schoolteacher named Edith Maxwell went out dancing. When she
came back to her family's home in Pound, Virginia, the trouble started. By the
next day, her father Trigg was dead. But was Edith a murderer, or a victim? And
how did relentless media coverage poison the public's understanding of the case.
In this episode, we'll speak to author and journalist Sharon Hatfield about her
book on the case.
