When Minahan Met Mary - Sex, Corruption And Scandal In 1880s London

This event has finished Took place on: Wednesday, 16th Mar 2016

 Free

One summer night in 1882, Inspector Minahan encountered Mary Jeffries, the most infamous brothel-keeper in London. Jeffries' clients included politicians, peers and princes. She also trafficked girls overseas in a flourishing trade that exploited Britain’s lax legislation.

Demoted for reporting Jeffries’ operation, Minahan pursued his own investigation, and his findings sparked national outrage: riots, arrests, a tabloid war and a sensational trial. Join auther Bridget O'Donnell to hear more.
