Ashley tells us all about Lavinia Fisher, America's first female serial killer. She was married to John Fisher, and both were convicted of highway robbery—a capital offense at the time—not murder. She was, however, an active member of a large gang of highwaymen who operated out of two houses in the backcountry near Charleston, the Five Mile House and the Six Mile House.
