Crime Classics
The Crime of Bathsheba Spooner
by
Crime Classics presents dramatized accounts of notorious crimes, drawing on historical cases and the people caught up in them. Each broadcast turns a real criminal episode into a radio story, with narration and performances that guide listeners through the events and their consequences.
The series blends crime drama with documentary-style context, giving attention to the circumstances surrounding each case as well as the investigation and its outcome. Its subject matter ranges across different periods and places, offering a succession of self-contained stories rather than one continuing cast or plot.
The result is a measured, often unsettling listening experience: part historical reconstruction, part mystery, and part portrait of human behavior under pressure. This episode is titled “The Crime of Bathsheba Spooner.”
This recording is part of the Old Time Radio collection.
