In a time when Ireland was ravaged by famine and desperation, O’Grady’s murders of his wife and servant girl raised darker questions about what it means to be sane when the mind is clouded by paranoia.You’ll discover how a man’s twisted beliefs about the women in his household led to a brutal double murder, and how the legal system struggled to decide if his mind was genuinely sick or simply pretending. We break down the clues in his confusing confessions, the medical debates that followed in a case, and the impact of Ireland’s harsh social climate on the case.A massive thank you to our sponsor, Revive Active, for supporting this episode.
