His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid.

Trigger warning - This episode touches on the topic of child rape and murder, so listener discretion is advised.
In this episode, host Dawn takes listeners back to 1868 in Dumfriesshire, recounting the tragic case of nine-year-old Thomasina Scott's murder. The narrative begins with the chilling events leading to Thomasina's disappearance, intertwined with the attempted murder of Jane Crichton by the same assailant, Robert Smith. Dawn details the investigation that ensued, highlighting the swift capture of Robert Smith and the evidence that led to his arrest, including blood-stained clothing and a noosed bootlace.
Listeners are taken through the courtroom drama as Robert Smith faces trial, where he pleads guilty to multiple charges, including rape and murder. Dawn provides a vivid account of the societal and legal context of the time, shedding light on the public's reaction to Robert Smith's crimes and his eventual execution, which marked the last public hanging in Scotland.
The episode also explores historical nuances, such as geographical discrepancies in records and the societal norms of the 19th century, offering a rich tapestry of historical insights. Through a blend of storytelling and historical analysis, Dawn paints a poignant picture of a dark chapter in Scotland's history, inviting listeners to reflect on the relentless pursuit of justice for victims like Thomasina.
