Woman to be hanged after Kentucky feud murders
Sarah Jane Whiteling, accused poisoner of her family, was sentenced to death by Judge Allison. A Kentucky feud has claimed thirteen victims in two years and a prior Nebraska connection links the case to an inheritance motive and a will leaving one third of a $10,000 farm to the accused. The revelation ties the crime to life insurance and a long pursuit of Whiteling’s true identity.
