In this week's thrilling episode of "Matcha, Masala, and Murder," we uncover the extraordinary saga of Lavinia Fisher, hailed as America's first female serial killer. Hosts Sharmane Fury and Rhia Maîr Kaur unravel a narrative that transcends the conventional true crime story, where the accused serial killer never actually took a life. Falsely implicated in highway robbery and ensnared in a plot to seize her property for a naval hospital, Fisher's tale unfolds as a haunting blend of deception and government intrigue. But the story doesn't end there. Legends abound of Fisher's ghostly presence, scratching people during tours at the old city jail and haunting a cemetery where she was never buried. Join your co-hosts on a journey through the murky corridors of history, where the line between fact and supernatural fiction becomes increasingly blurred, much like the inspiring tale of Phoolan Devi: The Bandit Queen of India that left us fired up with a newfound appreciation for stories of female empowerment.
