What is Parker - Hulme Murder Case?
1.
In 1954 Honora Parker was murdered by her daughter Pauline Parker, then aged 16, and Pauline’s friend and probable lover, Juliet Hulme, aged 15.
The two girls killed Honora because Juliet and her father were leaving shortly for South Africa. Pauline wanted to travel there, too, but her mother forbade it.
The girls beat Mrs. Parker on the head with a half brick concealed in a stocking, and when the body was found they claimed that the woman had 'slipped and fell', though this was not in accordance with the forty-five wounds on the woman's head. The bloody stocking with the brick in it was found nearby.
The Parker - Hulme Murder Case was very odd.
