In Part 2 of the thrilling case of Emma Ledoux and Albert McVicar, we focus on the excitement surrounding her trial and delve deep into the publicity at the time.  The world was ready to convict her on the first day but 112 years later we search through the information and try to decide if we agree. Join us as we discuss the trial, alternate theories, and the rest of her life.  Join us for Part 2 of The Man in the Trunk.

Emma Ledoux was convicted of murdering Albert McVIcar in Stockton, CA in 1906 and sentenced to hang at San Quentin.  In this episode we cover his murder, the ensuing publicity, the search by police for evidence and the trial of the century, all of which leads us to even more questions. Is Emma Ledoux really guilty or was Albert McVicar never even murdered? And did a District Attorney, with little evidence, use the media and its stereotypes to railroad an innocent woman?  Join us for Part 1 of this case and judge for yourself.
