Gertrude Hullett : ウィキペディア英語版 | Death of Gertrude Hullett
Gertrude "Bobby" Hullett (1906 – 23 July 1956), a resident of Eastbourne, East Sussex, England, was a patient of the suspected serial killer Dr John Bodkin Adams, who was charged with her murder but never tried for it. Adams was tried in 1957 for the murder of Edith Alice Morrell and the Hullett charge was meant to follow the Morrell case. The Morrell trial featured in headlines around the world〔(Not Guilty ), ''Time'', 22 April 1957.〕 and was described at the time as "one of the greatest murder trials of all time"〔(Law and Literature, ed. Brook Thomas, p. 149 – quoting Rupert Furneaux )〕 and "murder trial of the century".〔Times, 11 June 1985, p. 10〕 However, the Hullett charge was dropped by the Attorney General after Adams was acquitted of murdering Morrell - a move that was later described by the presiding judge as "an abuse of process".〔 ==Jack Hullett== On 14 March 1956, her husband Alfred John (Jack) Hullett died at age 71. He had been treated by John Bodkin Adams, and shortly after his death, Adams went to a chemist's shop to get a 10-cc hypodermic morphine solution in the name of Mr Hullett (containing 5 grains of morphine), and asked for the prescription to be back-dated to the previous day.〔Cullen, Pamela V., "A Stranger in Blood: The Case Files on Dr John Bodkin Adams", London, Elliott & Thompson, 2006, ISBN 1-904027-19-9〕 When the police investigated the case, they presumed the purpose of the ruse was to cover up morphine that Adams had given Hullett from his own private supplies. Mr Hullett left Adams £500 in his will.
