Evelyn Dick
Evelyn Dick (née MacLean: born October 13, 1920) is a Canadian convicted murderer. Her trials remain one of the most sensationalized events in Canadian criminal history. ==Background and case== Dick was born in Beamsville, Ontario to Donald and Alexandra MacLean. She was arrested for murder after local children in Hamilton, Ontario found the torso of her missing estranged husband, John Dick. His head and limbs had been sawn from his body and evidence that they had been burned in the furnace of her home at 32 Carrick Avenue, later surfaced. She was defended in her first murder trial in 1946 by J.J. Sullivan, convicted and sentenced to hang. Lawyer J.J. Robinette, however, appealed her case and won an eventual acquittal. In the meantime, however, a partly mummified body of a male infant was found in her attic, encased in cement in an old suitcase. The infant was identified as her son Peter David White. She was tried again for murder in 1947 and sentenced to life in prison, but was paroled in 1958 after serving eleven years in the Prison for Women in Kingston, and eventually disappeared from public view.
