Dr Robert Clements - (or) why marriage can be hazardous to your health

This week we are heading to my hometown of Southport to discuss Dr Robert Clements. A man who saw marriage as a means of improving his bank balance, and who was willing to 'divest' himself of his wife as soon as the money ran out.While you would think that this would arouse suspicion, Dr Clements was able to point to the death certificates, which stated that his wives just kept dying of obscure medical conditions, as proof that he was just unlucky in love... Of course he did sign those death certificates himself, but that is beside the point.So join us for a tale of greed, abuse of power and murder most foul from the first half of the 20th century.Guest Host (and Southport resident): Jack HeathcoteJack also has a book out: INKLING, which can be found here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4335276473/inkling-collectors-1st-edition-bundle Hosted on Acast.
