Episode 483: Crime Classics: The Seven Layered Cake Of Madame LaFarge

This week, we are serving up another dainty confection from Crime Classics. John Tefteller, along with researcher Karl Schadow and Bernard Herrmann expert Steven C. Smith, takes a closer look at this 1953 episode, based on the real-life case of a Frenchwoman accused of poisoning her husband with arsenic… hidden in a homemade cake. Like all Crime Classics episodes, it’s told with rye dialogue and narration, and Herrmann’s subtle musical score.
