Tools As Weapons: The Case of Charles Walton - Part 1

After a few episodes away from the usual stuff, we're back this week with yet another true crime mystery! Like most of the interesting cases out there, this one takes place in the past, in 1945 to be exact and involves an Englishman by the name of Charles Walton. The thing that makes this case interesting is that some believe it to have some witchcraft involved. While we don't explore that aspect in this episode, it will show up next week. However, the details of this case are also quite gruesome, in fact, it seems like it's been ripped from a horror movie. The story goes that Walton, a 75 year old man, was working on a farm he'd worked at for the better part of a year when his niece discovered he hadn't come home that evening. He wasn't a party animal, and had very few friends, so him going out seemed unlikely. A small search party formed, and eventually his body was found in the field he'd last been seen working in. It was a devastating affair, especially for his niece, naturally. It was such a big case for the area that Scotland Yard got involved and a number of suspects began to prop up. But, for all the gory details, you'll just have to listen to the whole episode.
