The cruelty of New Orleans’s dark socialite

The cruelty of New Orleans's dark socialite
Socialite who was to have tortured and murdered
Slaves in her embrace
In her embrace
The cruelty of New Orleans's dark socialite
Socialite who was to have tortured and murdered
Slaves in her embrace
Feeding her morbid taste for suffering and agony
From others
Discovered bound slaves in her attic who showed evidence of cruel
And violent abuse over a long period
Singularly haggard and wretched
Kept her cook starved and chained to the kitchen stove
Beating her daughters when they attempted to feed themselves
Or others
The cruelty of New Orleans's dark socialite
Socialite who was to have tortured and murdered
Slaves in her embrace
In her embrace
The cruelty of New Orleans's dark socialite
Socialite who was to have tortured and murdered
Slaves in her embrace
The cook later said that she had set the fire as a Suicide Attempt
Because she feared being punished
Stating that slaves taken to the uppermost room never came back
When the discovery of the abused slaves became widely known
A mob of local citizens attacked the Royal Street mansion and demolished and destroyed everything upon which they could lay their hands
Bound in restrictive postures
And wore spiked iron collars which kept their heads in static positions
Discovered the abused slaves became widely known
A mob of local citizens attacked the Royal Street mansion and demolished and destroyed everything upon which they could
The cruelty of New Orleans's dark socialite
Socialite who was to have tortured and murdered slaves
In her embrace
In her embrace
