Forensic Firearms Analysis: The Beginning

This week Ruby Wilde will bring you a solo episode about the history of forensic firearms analysis through the cases that established what can be done. 

You will hear about the murder of Mrs. Maxwell which is the first documented forensic firearms case that was solved by Bow Street Runner Henry Goddard. You will hear about the murders of Charles B. Phelps and Margaret Wolcott and the long path Charles Stielow and Nelson Green had to walk in the aftermath. And finally, the murder of John Orner that took 40 years to solve, but was it really solved? You dear listeners will need to be the judge.
