Step into 1537 Bildeston, where rumor spreads faster than truth and justice is whatever the loudest villager insists it is. In this darkly humorous and chilling episode, J’Lynn unravels the wrongful execution of Philip Witherick — a man condemned for murdering his lodger, Ambrose Letyce… who wasn’t even dead.

Follow the twisting path of suspicion, panic, and Tudor‑style “investigation,” featuring:
• A tailor who vanishes without his tools
• A bailiff who digs up bones and plants teeth
• A terrified child bribed into storytelling
• A mother coerced after five denials
• And a village that invents a crime out of thin air

With Josephine off time‑traveling for research on another case, J’Lynn guides you through one of history’s most absurd miscarriages of justice — a murder solved before anyone checked whether the victim was alive.

A missing man who wasn’t missing.
A crime that never happened.
And a community determined to punish someone anyway.

Pour your tea.
Brace yourself.
This is Tea & Treachery.
