Twenty-two-year-old Elma Sands is found murdered in a Manhattan well on January 2nd, 1800. Her lover, wealthy and well-connected Levi Weeks, is accused of the barbaric offense. Weeks brings in the nation’s best legal defense team – none other than Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr – to clear his name while a pandemic-stricken New York City buzzes with scandal.

This six-episode true story unfolds over the unbelievable two-day trial that laid the sexist roots of today’s justice system. Through flashbacks & testimony recreated in modernized language and narrated by Allison Flom, Erased: The Murder of Elma Sands investigates history’s chronic erasure of women and highlights the toils of Catherine Ring, a 27-year-old Quaker woman who took on the nation’s best legal team to preserve her cousin Elma’s name. Starring & Executive Produced by Allison Williams ("Get Out", "Girls") as Catherine Ring, Tony Goldwyn ("Scandal," "Ghost") as Alexander Hamilton, Barry Scheck (Innocence Project Founder) as Aaron Burr, and Jason Flom (Wrongful Conviction) as Judge John Lansing.

Created & Narrated by Allison Flom.

  • Introducing - Bone Valley Season 3 | Graves County: Preview
    Sep 17 2025

    In Bone Valley Season 3 | GRAVES COUNTY, Maggie Freleng takes us to a small town in Graves County, Kentucky, where a terrible discovery on the front lawn of a middle school invites a string of amateur and professional investigators to try to solve a murder. Maggie is the latest investigator to get pulled in. And she’ll take all of us along as she teases out this complicated web of rumors and lies, and perhaps even the truth.

    In this special preview of Episode 1, we hear from Victoria Caldwell. Her account of the killing of Jessica Currin would become the driving force in the conviction of Quincy Cross and others for the murder of Jessica Currin.

Amazing that no one knows that bit of history, especially since it was the first trial of that kind.

I can’t wait for her to do another true story!

Excellent

I was transported back in time!

I would love of these please!!! Anxiously waiting for the next “erased “piece of history .

I loved the feeling of being in the theater listening to a play.

This performance details a different side of Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. It's the slimy side of politicians. The story was interesting. I'd like more details in the process. The reenactments made use of modern speech patterns and slang. That was the least likeable part for me. I'm not sure I'd listen to another podcast by the same person.

Not a good look for Hamilton
