The bucolic image of central Massachusetts belies a dark and sometimes deadly past. Grisly crimes and grim misdeeds reach back to colonial settlement in Worcester County; from an escaped slave hanged for rape in 1768 at the Worcester jail to the Sutton choir singer convicted of drowning his wife in 1935. Henry Hammond�s 1899 suicide and the others that followed shook Spencer residents to their cores. Some crimes still grip the imaginations of residents; while others have faded from collective memory. Author Rachel Faugno investigates this sinister history.
