| | Crippen |
 | | Crippen's remuneration from Munyon's patent medicine company had been transferred from salary to commission only, and he was therefore likely to have been in financial difficulty, especially as he had been entertaining his mistress and typist, Ethel le Neve, in hotels. |
 | | Crippen moved Ethel into the house, and she began to wear his wife's clothing and jewellery. |
 | | Dr Bernard Spilsbury, later to become the famous pathologist, identified the remains as that of Mrs Crippen from a piece of abdominal scar tissue, and found that there were traces of a poison hyoscene in the body. |
