Erased: The Murder of Elma Sands

De: Lava for Good Podcasts
  • Resumen

  • Twenty-two-year-old Elma Sands is found murdered in a Manhattan well on January 2nd, 1800. Her lover, wealthy and well-connected Levi Weeks, is accused of the barbaric offense. Weeks brings in the nation’s best legal defense team – none other than Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr – to clear his name while a pandemic-stricken New York City buzzes with scandal.

    This six-episode true story unfolds over the unbelievable two-day trial that laid the sexist roots of today’s justice system. Through flashbacks & testimony recreated in modernized language and narrated by Allison Flom, Erased: The Murder of Elma Sands investigates history’s chronic erasure of women and highlights the toils of Catherine Ring, a 27-year-old Quaker woman who took on the nation’s best legal team to preserve her cousin Elma’s name. Starring & Executive Produced by Allison Williams ("Get Out", "Girls") as Catherine Ring, Tony Goldwyn ("Scandal," "Ghost") as Alexander Hamilton, Barry Scheck (Innocence Project Founder) as Aaron Burr, and Jason Flom (Wrongful Conviction) as Judge John Lansing.

    Created & Narrated by Allison Flom.

Excellent

Amazing that no one knows that bit of history, especially since it was the first trial of that kind.

I can’t wait for her to do another true story!

Not a good look for Hamilton

This performance details a different side of Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. It's the slimy side of politicians. The story was interesting. I'd like more details in the process. The reenactments made use of modern speech patterns and slang. That was the least likeable part for me. I'm not sure I'd listen to another podcast by the same person.
