Perfect, just before bed.

[@juliam7056]

Good story.

[@pamelasago9628]

The fact that such a large number of innocent people were executed on the basis of circumstantial, ridiculously flimsy evidence is astounding. Great story, though.

The killer actually got away with it but still didn’t enjoy it

Spoiler alert (skip this if you haven't heard the whole episode yet): Danny Kaye might not have been plausible in the role of an ordinary killer but as a guy who's so innately decent he even tries to turn himself in, and whose conscience will never leave him alone, he's believable.

In 1949 Danny Kaye starred in _The Inspector General_ which was originally to be entitled _Happy Times_. (See the Wikipedia article for "Happy Times" song.)

The trial is completely circumstantial, she never ought to be sentenced by these meager evidence. But for the sake of the story let's say this was a proper verdict. 28:11 - what was this little laugh?

This doesn't work if you knew Danny Kaye. He was one of the nicest guys ever. This is out of character for him, both as an actor and as a man.
