Trials: Evidence of the Past

from On the Record at The National Archives · host The National Archives

In the final episode of this series on our most intriguing and significant trial records, we're taking a closer look at the evidence. First, we examine pieces of courtroom evidence like a red suit seized from a LGBTQ+ space in the 1930s and the calling card that led to Oscar Wilde's downfall. Then, we explore how our trial records preserve evidence of everyday life in the past that would otherwise be lost to history.  For a transcript and information about the documents used in this episode visit our show notes: https://bit.ly/TNAtrials3 Listeners, we need your help to make this podcast better!
