  • The Stanfield Hall Murders
    News of the Times Episode 53 | 1840
    In 1848 a horrific two slayings, with two attempted slayings, took place in beautiful 13th century Stanfield Hall in Norfolk,
    The killer, waiting for his moments in the grounds and dressed in cape and mask, methodically went through the house attempting to annihilate the entire family.
    This case was considered tremendously shocking as a new type of crime - the systematic attempt to slay a whole family without emotion.
    We take a look at this shocking case: the background, the crime and the capture of the Stanfield Hall murderer in today’s episode of Sinister Saturdays.
    Hosted by Robin Coles.

      Thank you - really glad you liked it! We do love the older stories, but the language can sometimes be a bit awkward. It is hard to imagine the utter panic having a man striding about your house with a gun, cape and mask on, just shooting anyone in his way. 😱

    This was truly a heartbreaking story about the horrific murders of father and son plus two attempted murders of one household. Rush, had a grievance against the Jeremy's father and son about finances and property but it was absolutely no cause for him to try to kill the entire Jeremy family, period! I'm thrilled that he received the ultimate price for his heinous acts. Was Rush mentally insane when he committed these murders and attempted murders? Do you know whatever happened to the nine children of Rush? Great investigation, presentation, backstory, illustrations, photos, and videos, too. Take care 🦋

    • @newsofthetimes

      Yes, he was certainly a shady charachter! His agreement had been with the father of the two Jermy's - a reverend. But, what was found out when he died and Jermy snr took over (who was a recorder, so he had a good knowledge of the law) was that his father had been being cheated by Rush. Therefor a new agreement was made which was at higher rates and that is what seems ot have really bitten Rush and started the poor relations! And all of his shady deals were coming due at the same time - financially he was practically bankrupt.
      No sorry - we do not know what happened with his nine children. Pre about 1860 papers tended more towards the short and sweet news articles - there would almost never be any follow up. Thank you, as always, for your unswerving support!🙏🙌🌟

    The interior of Stanfield Hall looks VERY posh indeed!! I love the grand piano!!
    Rush sounded like a dodgy character!! Mind you, I doubt the Jermys were squeaky clean either, especially Jermy Jr!!
    I do think that trying to murder a WHOLE FAMILY AND their servants was a bit of an overkill (pardon the irony)!! I could understand him wanting the two Mr Jermys dead, but not the others!!
    Well, Rush paid the ultimate penalty for his crimes, and I'm glad of that!! I wonder what happened to his nine children though!!
    Thanks for telling this INTRIGUING tale, Robin!! 💕❤💞👍👏🤗

      Thank you - it was fairly shocking in its day! We do not know what happened with his children. His supposed intention was that the blame would be placed on the remote family member contesting the ownership basicallly leaving the place with no owner at all! Shady charachter indeed...🤨

    • @newsofthetimes
      @newsofthetimes  18 днів тому +2

      Thank you! We are not sure what the name of them would be in the states? The recorder manages the court cases - allocates which court case goes to which judge and which court case happens when - so quite an important role. In some of the way way way out in the woods places in earlier times, if there was no proper judge about the recorder would act as judge. We have done one case where that is what happened (but sorry, do not remember which one!). Thank you so much for your kind support! We love to hear from our American cousins across the pond!🙌✨

      Yes Calcraft - who really enjoyed his job! Calcraft would also have collected any of his possessions and sold them to Mdm Tussaud's and keep whatever he took a fancy to after a long and painful death. The number of spectators of the execution was said to exceed 15,000. Thank you so very much for your kind comment and support!🙏🙌
