My aunt’s scones don’t contain thallium but they’re just as deadly.

NEVER, EVER, tell relatives if they are named in your "LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT".

Laughing during trial? That will surely annoy the jury

Carrie Grills was my grandmother's sister on my moms side. My mother was able to get a box load of old newspapers, photos, and whatever (I never really looked) from relatives, but I think my mom sent the box back to them upon request after giving up on writing a book about her. Kind of weird having an evil sadistic serial killer in the family! Thanks for the video!

You have to wonder how many Caroline Grills there are out there who got away with it because they stopped after the first few victims.

“Aunt Thally”... Yikes!

I'm not sure what's the scarier nightmare scenario: a crazy person chasing me with a hatchet or an Auntie Carrie smiling as she brought tea, cakes and biscuits. 🤔

Very informative with no fluff. It is great to see cases that I've never heard of instead of watching multiple versions done over and over. Brief Case you ROCK!!

Your background music is super scary 😁. Yeah, back in the day, poisoning was very common. One lady even boiled off the arsenic from fly paper to kill with. Evil was as rampant then, as it is today. Thank you for the video.

She thoroughly enjoyed the suffering she caused ,so much EVIL in one person

"The Giggling Granny" was how I heard about her. Your description, however, showed a more accurate timeline than what I remember. Thanks for another great case.

She pushed death to far what a cruel woman thank you BC for another awesome video .

Cakes, Biscuits, & Pies...Oh my! Shame on you, Aunt Carrie.😖😖

CAUTION : Aunty Carrie's Tea , Cakes and Biscuits are hazardous to your health. " Oh fancy that "

Thallium was used pretty often for murders, like Martha Marek (you covered the case once, Brief Case) and Leopoldine Lichtenstein did, too... Thank you for a new interesting case, BC 👏🏻!

In prison Carolyn's nic name was Auntie Thally. She was not put to work in the kitchen. When a journalist asked her her views on the case she replied "Oh it's the fun of the world!" She is generally thought to have been batshit crazy.

I also wonder if Agatha Christie read about this? "The Pale Horse" comes to mind.

I first heard of her story on "Deadly Women". "Auntie Thallie" was deadly indeed! 💀☠💀

Which shows that even elderly grandma's aren't necessarily the nice people we generally believe them to be. Caroline premeditated her murders and poisonings, there was nothing spontaneous about them and was lucky to have avoided the death penalty. What a story ! Well researched and presented, as always by "Brief Case" !

Imagine this..That nice old lady (that almost all of us have in our family) whether it be an aunt or grandma, poisoning people. It scares the shit out of you. I know noone in my family is like that, but I'm sure these people thought the same thing about loving, sweet and caring aunt carrie.

Granny you eat first

I am surprised her psychopathic behavior did not come to the surface earlier. Attempt to kill your own daughter and the husband supported her through the trail and after her conviction. wow.

I always love your background music BC! Including the "DUN" sounds! LOL! Another great case on this Monday morning!

Mrs Grills; she does make exceedingly poisonous cakes.

I absolutely love cakes biscuits all lovely treats and my aunties are lovely - wee coincidence there! But thanks from Glasgow love your channel x

Let's get BC to 100k, best channel around!!

Seems like it was just way too easy to poison someone back then

Is that a permanent smirk on Caroline face evil eyes 😳🙄

My favorite channel. Thank you for finding these old or forgotten cases! Keep them coming! Cheers!

Caroline Gyrlls looks like an evil Mrs. Goggins from Postman Pat mixed with elements of Supergran

Thank you once again. Look forward to more of these grim but fascinating cases.

Really enjoy this going to listen to more thank you ! She looks way older than 63

Yay!!! Another vid from one of my favorite youtubers. And it's on a holiday-thanks B.C. for "making" me sit relax and watch a new show from you!!

Yay missed your uploads I'm out of school now and I'll have more time to watch so exited🦋

Absolutely grand to wake up to a Brief Case notification! Thank you, another great video.

Waiting every week for the latest from Brief Case. Thanks!

Always great content!

I stumbled across your channel about 1.5 months ago, BC. But, I've been on a binge watch ever since. I truly enjoy your videos, thank you so much for posting. I've always been a huge true crime fan, but you have elevated this art form like no other. It looks like I've been changed most of your library by now. Thanks again!

Good morning B. C. As usual another great video. The 12 minutes it took to deliberate, has to be a record. Thanks for the upload. 😍💕😘💞

You likely only need a few minutes' deliberation after hearing so many gruesome teatime recipes + the cook tittering away during the trial... 🍰🍪☕🤔

Wow! Another great story! Thanks. Only 12 minutes for the jury decision!

Excellent research and narration, hooked to the last word. Just love these old crime tales and cannot wait for the next! Thank you.

Love your videos and narration, so glad I discovered this channel. Cheers from an Australian watcher 🍻

Thanks for another interesting and informative video. You keep them coming and I'll keep on watching. 😘💓💕

Female serial killers are rare. Thank you for telling us about this one. Interesting!

Very interesting! Love your videos and channel. Well done as always.

thanks for doing the research, and bringing these interesting stories to the net

Leura is pronounced like "Lure"+"rah". One of my favourite true crime cases from my favourite place to visit!

Thank you for another historical crime. I remembered reading about "Aunt Thally." Like Hercule Poirot said, murder becomes a habit. It's nice to read about less well known crimes like this.

Tyvm...good story & always such research you do!

I sooo look forward to your videos!!! I can get so much work done around the house I especially love the details of each persons early life. It’s so important 👍

Yay! What a great way to wake up with my coffee! 😃🥰

Yesssss! Brief Case is one of my favorite channels!! :))

I Love that your fascinating cases are previously undiscovered gems from all over the world, giving us a peek into the darker side of life from these unusual people. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos, we truly appreciate it!!!

Terror of the Tealady

A wonderful video with gruesome aspects. Thank you BC!

Good on you brief case. We'll done as always. Thank you. 🐝

Brilliant as usual! It was terrible having to wait so long to watch😊 busy working 😐

Thanks for download enjoyed it .

Another well told presentation B. C. Keep up the great work.

Arsenic and old lace

I just love your channel!!!

Tea anyone? Superb work as usual. One of the most interesting channels out there!!!

The elderly can be murdered, too.

Some people are like rattlesnakes... Beedy dark eyes, cold conscience and a cold dark heart! Oh, fancy that!

Yay! Monday complete....nap time! Thanks bc 😘❤️

Thank you BC FOR ANOTHER INTERESTING CASE.

I just found this channel. It is awesome! I love true crime stories.

Fascinating story! Make you wonder about "family"...Great job as usual!

wow wee! since I've started listening to your shows and those of obsolete oddities, and a few others, it really brings to light of the true evil that has been in men and women for all of human històry. It's one thing to know it exists, and another to listen to it all being told in detail. It makes a person think twice when meeting someone new!

I'm in Australia so this is a fairly known tale, thank you...you always have that bit more to a tale. The comments are hilarious 😂... Your fans may like these murder/crime stories,. but geez! we have a good sense of humour.!

Thanks BC. Another shocking and sad case well presented.💔🤔💼

First upload on 3 pt miniseries now! I promised I'd tell you when my new channel started uploading, so welcome to first post under new channel. Excellent job as always!

Love these stories..Thank you

Ah, Aunt Thally! Again covered by the ID discovery show Deadly Women I'm familiar with this case. However once again you strike my fascination with your ability to find interesting details about the case that were not mentioned in that T.V presentation ^_^ Kudos to you. Love your uploads and looking forward to the next brief💼case!👍

Another awesome story Brief Case!!

love your work!!

Auntie's cakes are to die for. haha

Whoa, 12 minutes has to be the shortest jury deliberation I have ever heard of.

It's bad enough when they can't remember things and yell for no reason, or they soil themselves, but when you have to scold them and take away their poisons, that might be the last straw.

Thank you for a good case again. Still love how you tell the stories. Poison seemed to be a thing back then.

I know it was the 1950s, but I think that if I was on that jury I would have spun it out for a bit longer than 12mins- at least make it look as though you've engaged in serious deliberations. Give it a couple of hours at least. 12mins just looks dodgy, and could give ammunition to a future appeal hearing...

Job Well Done Sir!!! Keep Up The Awsome Work!!👍😎

Love your channel. Just subscribed.

Thank you....that was really creepy.

Excellent, as usual!

Perfect timing, I needed a video to fall asleep to

YR PLAYLIST IS VERY ENLIGHTENING AND GOOD TO LISTEN TO TY FOR UPLOADING THE REALISM OF TRUTH IN DEATH AND THE REASONS BEHIND THE ACT - IT MAKES ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY INTERESTING TO FATHOM THE DEEP MINDSETS OF HUMAN BEHAVIOUR.

This is a great story. There seems to be countless tales of women like _Caroline Grills_ from the mid 19th to mid 20th century that offed people in their role as kindly mother, granny, nurse or "baby farmer". Poisons were relatively easy to come by but I have to wonder if contemporary women in these or similar roles, are killing at a same _per capita_ rate?

Thanks BC as always.

Great story. Thank you, BC.

Ty for this video sweetie 🙂

1056 views, Im the 135th like. Just got notification on my phone. Hell ya I am gonna watch! I enjoy your vids, and the way you present them. Great work! Love watching them, just hope I dont see my grandparents or ancestors in your vids!

I love your voice and the narration is extremely soothing

Stories like this always make me wonder which is scarier, someone who kills for some kind of gain or advantage in life (politically, financially or romantically motivated killings), some kill not really wanting to but coming into a situation where having the person around as a witness would be an issue (tying up a loose end as it were), or those who like Caroline, seem to kill just to kill, just to watch the suffering not necessarily out of malice or hatred of those individuals, but a lack of empathy for their pain. As humans we always try to attribute meaning in actions and logic in thoughts but sometimes really there isn't anything to rationalize. Nothing to be gained or achieved, just habitual. It seems foolish to think of "which is worse" but it's just so terrifying to think, that some people just cause suffering because they can and for no other benefit.

Love your vids🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😊interesting. Well researched. Love the narrator ✝️✝️🇺🇸🇺🇸✌️✌️

yes , sitting back and listening. No kids tonight so a glass of wine and listening to some BRIEF CASES in the bath. new subscriber ; )

I can't believe I just found this channel.. Keep up the good work.

Great story telling!🍷

As ever you are my lovely relater keep up I'm a fan and you are spot on
