Episode: Pint O' Comics Episode 298 w/ Andrew Noone - The Tale of Bathsheba Spooner

 How big a sensation would a conspiratorial murder of a married man by his wife and three men be in today's news media? Well, imagine that in 1778 at the height of the American Revolution. Toss in a teenager, sex, and a detailed court case, and you have all the pinnings of a movie-of-the-week on every network. Bathsheba Spooner was a well-off married mother with a heavy pedigree, so the bizarre circumstances in the death of her husband has become New England legend. Andrew Noone's new book BATHSHEBA SPOONER: A REVOLUTIONARY MURDER CONSPIRACY is available now, and we discuss it in detail on this episode. Enjoy!
