S18 Ep128: Broadway Butterfly: Murder, Conspiracy. & Cover-Up in New York w/ Sara DiVello
True Crime Tuesday presents Broadway Butterfly: Murder, Conspiracy. & Cover-Up in New York with Podcaster/Researcher/Author, Sara DiVello!
When Manhattan It Girl, Dot King, was found murdered in her apartment on West 57th Street in 1923, the case became a public sensation—dominating the headlines in every major newspaper across the country and enthralling readers with the sordid, juicy details as they debated “whodunnit.” Dot had been the mistress of a very wealthy member of high society—as well as the lover of a shady character who became the primary suspect but avoided arrest—and her list of acquaintances spanned the gamut from the underbelly of Broadway to the halls of power and prestige.
The shocking ramifications rippled from the gangster underworld all the way to the White House, and some of the nation’s most powerful men insured that the case was closed before the murderer could be brought to justice. Now, a century later, this remarkable story is brought to life through the meticulous research, dogged curiosity, and vibrant imagination of Sara DiVello, who has been consumed by the case and its fascinating cast of characters for close to a decade. The result is BROADWAY BUTTERFLY, DiVello’s true crime historical thriller! Sara joins TCT today to talk about the characters in the book, her inspirations behind it, and what makes Sara tick!
