- Tales of Assassination of the Aged
News of the Times Episode 347 | 1893 & 1897
Today we look at two cases where the intended victim was of more senior years.
The first case from 1893 is a terrible crime using an axe on the woman running the shop. The police took the case very seriously and managed to trace the suspect to Belgium and extradite him - a feat rather more difficult in Victorian Times. The police and Home Office were unswerving.
The second case from 1897 Ireland caught our attention right away. Seventy some Dennis Kelly is still happily running his farm of 6 acres and lives in his house with his son. The father has taken on some domestic help as his wife has died and he needs help. The son suspects that there is a relationship between the two and that they are planning to cut him out of his inheritance. A highly cruel and torturous murder of a son on his father occurs due to jealous suspicions.
Two Tales of assassination of the aged is today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.
Hosted by Robin Coles.

Thank you. 😊
The son, in the second story, got his just deserts. I can't imagine killing a parent or anyone for money. How evil can one get. You did a great job relating the story. Thank you for sharing.
In the second story in same ways it amazes me. On one hand justice in the UK can sometimes be mind numbing harsh and awful but in this case it was far too lenient for these terrible men. Of course to be fair, the judiciary over here has now become quite fascist so there is no telling what horrors they have in store for this country. Insanity reigns supreme!! Thank you for another well researched story, much appreciated.
The first story broke my heart. Glad justice was served!!.. Great job Robin and team. Your work on the cases is truly appreciated. Praying for a million subs for your channels, your content and presentation beats network TV
It appears the unfortunate Mrs Pearcey was murdered for her money and goods in her shop!! What a HORRIBLE way to die!!
Awful crimes. Terrible.
Excellent as always. Love the output. Always excited for each new episode
That 2nd story is nuts. What a horrible way to die. But it was wild that he had a crowd following and harassing him and he just ignored them.
A Good Presentation as usual 👋
Wow! That second story. Not only his own son, but other people he knew. His horrific. They sounded like mad animals.
Carrickmacross isn’t far from me so I found this story so sad and interesting , the poor father but how strange to murder him with so many people involved and presume you’d get away with it perhaps he wasn’t the full shilling as my father used to say
I've just realised you posted this and then the same day there was the assassination attempt on Trump!
