The infamous Dr Crippen innocent?

[cam elle toe]

DNA testing has shown the body in the cellar to be a male.

He still could have killed his wife.....but should he have been convicted?

I didnt realise that 1. he was a homoeopath and 2. they called us "doctors" back then.

Interesting read.

crippen always fascinated me because there was no reason why he would have done what he was supposed to have done

I only have a vague idea who Crippen is.

To wikipedia to educate myself!

Was it okay for women though? Apparently his wife had numerous affairs too, quite openly. Maybe he got bored of it.
