The trial of Florence Maybrick in 1889 was a sensational affair. The beautiful widow was alleged to have poisoned her husband James with arsenic. What took place in the courtroom of St
George's Hall in Liverpool helped to secure rights for the accused that we take for granted today. In this Age to Age special,
Christopher Cook and David Foster recall the case of Florence Maybrick , which was responsible for the setting up of the Court of Criminal Appeal.
