Derek Curtis-Bennett
Frederick Henry Derek Curtis-Bennett Q.C. (29 February 1904 - July 1956) was a British barrister who defended some of the most notorious characters in British legal history, but whose career was cut short by alcoholism. His father was Sir Henry Curtis-Bennett K.C., whose biography he wrote with Roland Wild.
==Early life and career==
Curtis-Bennett was educated at Radley College and Trinity College, University of Cambridge. He was called to the bar in 1926 and specialised in criminal defence. He became a Recorder of Guildford in 1942 and a King's Council the following year.〔"Mr. D. Curtis-Bennett." ''The Times'', 24 July 1956, p. 12.〕 Among those that Curtis-Bennett defended were William Joyce (Lord Haw Haw), serial killer John Christie (1953), Sergeant Frederick Emmett-Dunne, and atom spy Klaus Fuchs. Curtis-Bennett pursued the truth in the Christie case as his client admitted more and more murders, despite it being injurious to his defence.〔"Letters: New light on Christie's mental state." Jack A. Hobson, ''The Times'', 17 April 1971, p. 15.〕
