Bruised Witness: Bernard Spilsbury and the Performance of Early Twentieth-Century English Forensic Pathology
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by PubMed Central Medical History, 2011, 55: 41–60 Bruised Witness: Bernard Spilsbury and the Performance of Early Twentieth-Century English Forensic Pathology IAN BURNEY and NEIL PEMBERTON* Abstract: This article explores the status, apparatus and character of forensic pathology in the inter-war period, with a special emphasis on the ‘people’s pathologist’, Bernard Spilsbury. The broad expert and pub- lic profile of forensic pathology, of which Spilsbury was the most promi- nent contemporary representative, will be outlined and discussed. In so doing, close attention will be paid to the courtroom strategies by which he and other experts translated their isolated post-mortem encounters with the dead body into effective testimony. Pathologists built a high-profile practice that transfixed the popular, legal and scientific imagination, and this article also explores, through the celebrated 1925 murder trial of Norman Thorne, how Spilsbury’s courtroom performance focused critical attention on the practices of pathology itself, which threatened to destabilise the status of forensic pathology. In particular, the Thorne case raised questions about the inter- relation between bruising and putrefaction as sources of interpretative anxiety. Here, the question of practice is vital, especially in understand- ing how Spilsbury’s findings clashed with those of rival pathologists whose autopsies centred on a corpse that had undergone further putrefac- tive changes and that had thereby mutated as an evidentiary object. Examining how pathologists dealt with interpretative problems raised by the instability of their core investigative object enables an analysis of the ways in which pathological investigation of homicide was inflected with a series of conceptual, professional and cultural difficul- ties stemming in significant ways from the materiality of the corpse itself. -

Inst. Crim. L. & Criminology 5 (1930-1931) This Article is brought to you for free and open access by Northwestern University School of Law Scholarly Commons. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology by an authorized editor of Northwestern University School of Law Scholarly Commons. TBE LIFE OF AN ENGLISH CRIMINAL LAWYER FRANCIS FIsHER KANE' No one can read the delightfully interesting book on the life of Sir Edward Marshall Hall2 without being continually impressed by the wide difference in social standing between the barrister accustomed to trying cases in the English criminal courts and the criminal lawyer in the United States. The Englishman may go daily into the criminal courts, and take the most unsavory of briefs; he may represent de- fendants for whom the public has not a particle of sympathy, defend- ants against whom a violent public sentiment exists, and yet, if he be an able and honorable man, he may do all this without the slightest loss of social prestige. He may live and die an honored member of the Bar, with the respect of the bench, and indeed of the entire community. The division of the profession into barristers and solici- tors no doubt helps to make this possible, for it separates the barrister from his clients and keeps him from coming into contact with them except as may be necessary in the preparation of cases for trial. -

Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} the Magnificent Spilsbury
Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Magnificent Spilsbury and the Case of the Brides In the Bath by Jane Robins The Magnificent Spilsbury And The Brides In The Bath: Jane Robins. Or so it seemed until a newspaper report linking two of the deaths aroused suspicion and a police investigation revealed that all three men were one and the same, a self-important fellow named George Joseph Smith who admitted bigamy and deception but denied murder. Thereafter, at Smith’s trial for the murder of one of the women, the young forensic scientist Bernard Spilsbury was called as an expert witness and jousted with Edward Marshall Hall, the pre-eminent jury advocate in capital cases. The author and publishers are plainly hoping to emulate the success of Kate Summerscale’s 2008 bestseller The Suspicions Of Mr Whicher: Or The Murder At Road Hill House. While that book linked a sensational murder case from the 1860s with the genesis of detective fiction, Robins links these three murders with the genesis of forensic science in Britain and the man who was to become its legendary exemplar for over 30 years, Bernard (later Sir Bernard) Spilsbury. She also locates these crimes against women in the context of the social and sexual mores of the 1910s. The story is not just a compelling read but is also an intriguing slice of social history. Smith had been preying on women since 1898, usually plain respectable girls of meek dispositions, who were approaching the age when permanent spinsterhood beckoned. Posing as a small businessman he insured the lives of his three victims and ensured they made their wills. -
