One-Off: John Hubbard - The Bones in the Basement
In a chilling one-off episode of Foul Play: Crime Series, "John Hubbard – The Bones in the Basement," Shane takes listeners on a journey into a dark chapter of Wabash, Indiana's history. The episode unfolds with a startling discovery made in the basement of the Wabash County Historical Museum, where an unassuming box reveals the remains of John Hubbard, a mid-19th-century serial killer.
The narrative begins as Shane, exploring the old museum, stumbles upon this eerie relic and seeks to unravel the story behind it. He sits down with a local historian to delve into the sinister tale of John Hubbard, who, in a macabre twist of fate, murdered the French family and then audaciously took over their home and possessions.
The episode vividly recounts the events leading up to the discovery of the French family's bodies, hidden beneath the floorboards of their own house. As the historian guides Shane through the grim details of the case, they discuss Hubbard's motivations and the methods he used to commit such heinous crimes in an era long before modern forensic science.
Listeners are taken through the aftermath of the murders, including the investigation, Hubbard's eventual capture, and the trial that followed. The episode also explores the broader social and historical context of the 1850s in Indiana, providing insights into how such a crime could have unfolded and been resolved during that period.
This episode is not just a recounting of a forgotten crime; it's a deep dive into the psyche of a serial killer and a reflection on the evolution of criminal investigation techniques.
