Ben Franklin’s Bones (S14E01)

S14E01

In November 1997, police made a shocking discovery when they found the skeletal remains of at least 28 individuals in the cellar of a stately townhouse, initially suspecting a serial killer at work. However, further investigation revealed that the bones dated back to the mid-1700s, leading to even more astonishing implications. The site, 36 Craven Street, was once home to one of America's most significant historical figures, Benjamin Franklin. This revelation raised an unsettling question: could Franklin himself have had a connection, however indirect, to the remains hidden beneath his residence?
