    "Informing her that her husband had a mistress who was a very intelligent, interesting, and attractive woman."
    ... I see Cordelia wasn't lacking in confidence, then.

      She also described herself as an English woman by birth. A century ago that meant you were high class.

      I suppose that if you are confident, it shaves at least 20 lb's off your frame and makes you look better to a sucker. Harsh how chatting with a person about how your X woman loved chocolates can cause this mailing of poison chocolates. Lord have mercy.

      She might have looked better before child. He might have been ugly. BUT yes, attractive women were not skinny, but rubenesque (what we think chubby). Being a bit chubby meant genetically could bear many children (healthy with ability to fed unborn child). Skinny meant sickly, trouble in childbirth and if illness hit, had no reserves to live off of to survive. Chubby also meant more than enough resources (food) - not struggling to hand to mouth so more wealthy.

      Beverley was a man's name long before it was ever a woman's name. The same applies to lots of women's names today. Many of them are stolen men's names. Women are now being called Parker, Harper, Avery, Madison, Riley, Quinn, Peyton, Ashley, Taylor, Bailey, Emerson, Charlie, Morgan, Sydney - all men's names.

      What if the kid's eat the chocolates and die of poisoning.
      Knowing that she still didn't it anyway.
      So I don't feel bad for her either.
      If u ask me the law failed back then.
      The fact the she poisoned the kids to but they didn't die.

      She had a way less merciful time as she survived all her loved ones... Sometimes, sentence to live can be way harsher.

    I do feel kind of bad for her son. Born to a selfish, narcissistic mother, an absent father, mother imprisoned, and then dying young. Must have been a difficult life for him. (Not to mention being named Beverly, but maybe that was a common man's name back then.)

    Wow!!! BC this was awesome!!! She absolutely had to have gotten the idea from the past case. This was identical in every way. It amazes me that someone will copy a past crime thinking they can do it better and get away with it. The police did a great job figuring both of these cases out and bringing the culprit to justice. Your work is fantastic and I just love your channel. Keep up the awesome work. Thank you it's very much appreciated.🕵🏻🕵🏻💼💼💖💖
