About this listen
After Burke's arrest, confessions revealed 16 murders. Yet only Burke faced execution. The trial captivated Britain with systematic murders by suffocation. Hanged before 25,000, his body was dissected. But the anatomist who orchestrated the sales escaped justice. This historic true crime case led directly to the Anatomy Act of 1832… (Part 2 of 2).
