In the early 1790s Richard Randolph was accused of fathering a
child by his sister-in-law, Nancy, and murdering the baby shortly
after its birth. Rumors about the incident, which occurred during a
visit to the plantation of close family friends, spread like
wildfire. Randolph found himself on trial for the crime largely
because of the public outrage fueled by these rumors. The rest of
the household suffered too, and only Nancy, who later married the
esteemed New York statesman Gouverneur Morris, would find any
degree of happiness. A tale of family passion, betrayal, and
deception, Scandal at Bizarre is a fascinating historical portrait
of the social and political realities of a world long vanished.
