In this episode of Crime Capsule, we kick off our fourth season with a chilling tale from Erie, Pennsylvania. Join host Benjamin Morris and Justin Dombrowski as he recounts the shocking events of February 8, 1911, when Amelia Hertwig stumbled upon the desecration of the Scott Mausoleum. This famed structure, built in 1889 for a prominent family, became the site of a horrifying discovery as its doors were found ajar, and one of the bodies inside had been disturbed. Justin discusses the uniqueness of this crime in Erie's history and paints a vivid picture of the mausoleum's impressive architecture. Tune in for a deep dive into a crime that was both sensational and bizarre, marking a dark moment in the city’s past.
