Description
The Killing of Julia Wallace by Jonathan Goodman In 1931, the brutal murder of Julia Wallace in Liverpool sent shockwaves through the community. The case remains one of Britain's most infamous unsolved murders, with many questions still unanswered to this day. A devoted couple, William Herbert Wallace and his wife Julia, were found to be a quiet and unassuming pair. However, their lives took a devastating turn when Julia was discovered bludgeoned to death in their home. The police investigation that followed led to Wallace's conviction for the crime, despite many believing he was wrongly accused. Using original sources, Jonathan Goodman meticulously reconstructs the trial, revealing a web of errors and omissions by the police and medical examiner. A key piece of evidence was ignored, pointing to a likely suspect who had been dismissed due to his family connections. This book sheds new light on one of Britain's most enduring mysteries.
