Five Million Pounds Trial Ends in Guilty Verdict
The dramatic court scene centers on Miss Daisy Brancliffe as witnesses including Dr Carrick and Mr Mauleverer’s household reveal a history of poisons. The jury convicts Daisy of murder by strychnia, despite defense arguing possible accidental death or doctor’s error. The judge’s summing up seals the fate and the record closes as the narrator endures a chilling wake.
