Episode 24: Betty Lou Beets and Jane Andrews

First, Lynn tells us about Betty Lou Beets. Betty Lou had a rough childhood. She lost her hearing at a young age and was forced to care for her very young siblings when she was just 12. She married at the age of 15 and spent the rest of her free life in abusive relationships. She was convicted of murdering her fifth husband and was the second woman since the civil war to be put to death in Texas.

Then Rose tells us about Jane Andrews who was a dresser for Sarah the Duchess of York. After growing up poor, Jane wanted so bad to be a wealthy socialite that when her boyfriend refused to marry her, she murdered him!
