The American-born Crippen prescribed an overdose
of hyoscine, a drug used to lessen the sex drive, to kill his vain, nymphomanic
wife, who was a music hall artist. He then dismembered her body
and hid parts of it in his cellar, where there were discovered. He
sailed for Canada with his young mistress, Ethel Le Neve, whome he hoped
to marry. She was disguised as a boy. In the first such use
of wireless telegraphy, Crippen was identified while aboard ship and arreseted
upon landing in Quebec. He was convicted and hanged in England.
Le Neve was acquitted of complicity.
