Episode 3 | James Gordon Wolcott
Cecilia’s story about navigating life with schizophrenia
James St. James was enjoying a quiet life as a university professor in Illinois until a reporter from Texas decided to look into the life of a family annihilator who had been released from a state mental institution decades prior. The reporter had been looking for a grisly murderer named James Gordon Wolcott, but what she found instead was a well-adjusted member of society who had dedicated his life to improving the lives of his students.
