John and Sarah Makin - Baby Farmers

Join your host Belinda over a beverage or two as she discusses baby farmers John and Sarah Makin and yes, it is as bad as it sounds. 

In 1893, married couple John and Sarah Makin were trusted and paid for to care for infants by desperate, often destitute, parents, a practice known as baby farming, which was not uncommon in those times, but horrifically, they did anything but, with a blocked pipe in a backyard bringing their heinous crimes to light.
