I tell the story of Frederick Baker and Fanny Adams in this episode.
Frederick abducted 8-year-old Fanny Adams on August 24, 1867, before murdering her and cutting her body into several pieces, with some parts never being found.
Frederick was the last person to be hanged in public at Winchester Jail, with his execution taking place on December 24, 1867.
