6/9 The Congdon Legacy: Elizabeth Congdon

Elizabeth Congdon’s life on the shore of Lake Superior, how she lived and who she was - as a Duluthian, a mother, a grandmother and the last Congdon resident at Glensheen, has long been overshadowed by her untimely death in 1977. 

In the second installment of "The Congdon Legacy" we get a glimpse of Elizabeth's life as well as how the high profile jury trials of her murder impacted future criminal investigations in Minnesota.
