Marks Unexplained World Episode 103: The Evil Delusions of Eleanor Williams
Listeners Discretion is Advised
Eleanor Williams is an English criminal who made false claims of multiple serious crimes, including accusations of trafficking, rape, blackmail, and physical violence, none of which were found to have occurred.
Following her 2022 trial, Williams was found guilty on nine counts of perverting the course of justice, contrary to English common law.
She was sentenced to eight and a half years in prison.
The fictitious claims spread by Williams on the internet had lasting impacts, including multiple attempted suicides, a rise in racially motivated violence, and the creation of the Online Safety Act 2023, which criminalises the spread of false, harmful information online.
