@@BriefCaseOfficial You're welcome. It's interesting having one of your videos to enjoy. A Monday treat! 🧁

@@thamadtroll9981i see this channel as doing a great job of giving recognition and a place to people who have suffered injustice and always we get a great history lesson. True history and social change...these things are never pretty, but having it all exposed well is a invaluable. I hope I said that good BC. 😂❤

And has much changed since then?

Unfortunately, that path still occurs now when a conviction is appealed. Lawyers know this. Appeals and retrials ALWAYS favour the convicted. This is where money counts. Wealthy people can appeal many, many times. As many times as it takes. Many convicts are successful in walking free as a result of turning the tables when having retrials.

Justice has been compromised and corrupted.

WAH! Spare us the feminist garbage.

Wow, thats some story, thankyou so much for sharing it

That poor lady....I can't imagine the pain she must have gone through. I'm so glad to hear she did well for herself in the end.

And yet the practice is done many times a day, over the world. I agree with you.

It was the times.

And 😂

@@sarge4455just saying.

poor and female were both faults people brought on themselves I think, to their minds.

Imagine that.

I thought so also. I would be nice to know if they did it out of kindness or if they did it because they didn’t want her wickedness in their community. We want to think it was out of kindness. But it may not have been 🤔

Nice story, thankyou for sharing it :)

It is terrible to think about, but children were often on their own at age 12, my own grandmother being one of them too. She was fortunate to be taken in as a sort of nurses aid for an elderly man by his family. The family also allowed her to attend school for 2 hours a day at "The Living Well School'. Which she did until age 15. Her sisters continued to educate themselves, and all determined that their children would go to college, and so they all did! They took care of each other and all married young, and had children as people of that time did.

@@primesspct2 I admire young people like your grandmother. Thank you for sharing a bit of her story-what a good feeling I felt reading it.

What part of England? I had a family connection end up in Lowell Mass, they moved from Rochdale in Lancashire, cotton mill central. Have you looked into the records?

@nicolad8822 Manchester, England. She was born 1888. I have done some genealogy on that side and know that my grandmother's family was in Manchester for a couple of generations. My mother told me that Lowell, MA, was talked about by her mother and father. I visited Lawrence, MA, back in 1998 and was taken back by what an important and massive industry it all was. Now, just relics of the past.

Thankyou so much

Thanks Scott :)

😢 This true story has very upset me too

He's a "doctor", a term that was (and even still can be) utilized pretty freely when people wanted to use it to sell their services. He was a doctor of botanical medicine, wasn't he? But you're absolutely right; regardless of his credentials, he was really, really bad at being a criminal.

Murderers aren't too bright. They think they are, but they really aren't. They get so caught up with the crime that after it's done, their confidence is pushed aside. They get sloppy and careless, they make panic / rushed decisions, leave evidence behind, etc. They assume they have all their bases covered prior, which they hardly ever do and eventually get caught, almost always from their own doing. A good example, the Oklahoma (USA) tragedy. Assuming they'd never get caught, that with the bodies, they buried evidence that connected them to the crime. Along with cellphone data from their own phones that they had with them during the act, lead authorities to the exact location of the burial. Can't get much dumber than those suspects. Again, it's the carelessness of the guilty parties that get themselves caught.

I’m surprised he just didn’t have her body cremated!!

@@toddabowden I have a feeling this was the first time something had gone wrong. I think there were more women previous who went to him in a time of trouble. The botanicals didn't work with her, so he botched an abortion. Actually, judging from how it all ended up, he could have just alerted authorities when she died. They would have looked down on her for going to see him in the first place. And he would have said that he tried and failed.

Thanks Cheryl

Yeah, he seems like a real stand up guy that would make a great husband. Married under duress. What could go wrong?

Happy Birthday Vicki, Today is the 6th Birthday of Brief Case :)

Yes, but if you watch true crime there are still many women murdered because they got pregnant and the father wanted nothing to do with it. Things do not change so much.

Happy Birthday you are still young! I entered my 70's

Happy late bday

And Happy bday to Brief case channel

Thanks for listening Emma

Thanks Holly

Berengera was the name of Richard the Lionhearted,s wife Berengera of Navarre, a small kingdom near the Spanish border.

@@hildahilpert5018 oh cool! It's royal too!

Probably a family name.

Yep. It’s just as cold hearted now as it ever was.

I'm not sure he never intended on marrying her. When he lost his job he lost his financial stability and probably couldn't afford to marry her anymore, nor raise a child.

Thanks Aurora, I have not forgotten about the case from Finland :)

We are judged as immoral for wearing yoga pants in 2024. Things have not changed as much as we might have hoped.

@@avenginggoddess I’m sorry that happened to you! Don’t let them affect your good vibes! You are worthy of feeling good at all times! 🌟

@reneedennis2011 Agree, very, very disgusting😖

@@gailmiller6333 Yup. Exactly.

I'm just starting my Monday, 4am, California. Excited to see this upload with my morning coffee.

Wow Tokyo in the evening, its just gone 5am here

@@BriefCaseOfficial wow! Up all night or up very early to give us our Weekly Brief Case! Either way, thank you for your dedication!

Thanks Kerry

Honestly I'm not even sure if he should have been charged with manslaughter. Because someone died in surgery doesn't necessarily mean gross negligence occurred, there are unavoidable risks, particularly back then. I mean we almost never prosecute malpractice as manslaughter now. Realistically the only really proveable crime was concealing the death and hiding the body.

Medics and hospitals, surgeries and prescription drugs cause death all the time, every day, but doctors don't go to prison for anything. Most don't even get a malpractice suit against them...

Hi Cadillac :)

South Jersey

Happy Birthday Betty, Today is also the 6th Birthday of Brief Case

@@BriefCaseOfficial Oh thank you! And Happy 6th Birthday to Brief Case!! Blessings always! ❤️🙏😊

Thankyou for staying with me for so long, it is much appreciated :)

Me too, cup of coffee and B.C.

Yes, it appears the US has not progressed all that much since the mid 19th century. Well, we did, but we were just kidding and turned back the clock. It's great. We're great.

Yes I had to look this up as even in the newspapers I read she was reffered to as Berengera

I went to Thornton. Did the pronunciation of Saco drive you nuts, lol?

Hi Janet

Thanks :)

Thanks Marianne

Hi Dee

Good morning!

Um...1849?

What ARE you babbling on about?

Thanks

Thankyou

Thank you!

Gods not real

@@sarge4455 the first one every atheist calls for when the chips fall…

And imagine lying there for days in desperate pain with an infection of the uterus probably knowing you were dying and not able to get any proper medical help.

At least we're only stupid in times of great pain...not ALL of our lives 😂​@@loriegosnell9355
