Summary

When a body is found in a trashcan by workers of the Canton Parks Department, it doesn't matter that the park is called City Field Park.  For decades City Field Park was known as "Mother Goose Land" so when the workers call 911 to report a dead body in a trashcan, they tell 911 to send help to Mother Goose Land. Joseph Scott Morgan will turn the pages of his own storybook to find out how a simple "wellness check" turns so evil, so fast. How did a 24-year-old woman wind up dead and thrown away like garbage and who is responsible for such a horrible murder.

Mary Mary, quite contrary.

How does your garden grow with silver bells and cocked shells and pretty mates all in a row.

0:30.0

I think we probably all recognize that nursery rite, because that's what it is.

0:35.7

I mean, kids for ages have used that over and over again. I remember, though it was many, many moons ago, being in

0:42.3

nursery school is what they used to call it. And we used all of these. I think that teachers,

0:48.3

and I know nothing about teaching small children, but they use these repetitive rhymes in order to form language

0:57.6

and get into rhythm, if you will. But you know, these nursery rhymes have dark origins. I think that

many of you have heard that. With Mary Mary

1:13.6

quite contrary, its origin is said to go back to Bloody Mary, who was Queen Mary

1:20.6

the First of England. And it has to do with her execution of hundreds of Protestants over a very dark period in British history.

1:34.4

And if you didn't know, some scholars believe that silver bells and cockle shells are actually references to not things that might adorn your garden,

1:51.0

but actually they're tied back to torture devices that were used in dungeons back during those days.

2:32.6

I'm Joseph Scott Morgan, and this is Bodybacks.

2:38.8

Joe, before we dig into the fairy tale part of this, I had no idea that there were little

2:44.8

parks all over America that had names like Storytime Park or Mother Gooseland until I saw the headline in this story.

2:52.4

It says Mother Gooseland murder, Canton, Ohio.
