Reconstructions of famous trials chosen by Lord Birkett who contributes a postscript
11-The Stockwell Murder
The Old Bailey-January, 1872
The Rev. John Selby Watson , a retired schoolmaster, was tried on a charge of murdering his wife. The facts of the murder were not in dispute -but no obvious motive emerged in evidence and the defence stood on the ground of insanity. Watson was found guilty, but such was the doubt surrounding the case that the death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment and he died in Parkhurst Prison some twelve years later at the age of seventy-nine.
In his postscript Lord Birkett discusses
Insanity and the Law, with especial reference to the recent Podola case.
