Justice Served - Gauvreau of Dominion Police during Crippen Case
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this striking photograph taken in 1910 by George Grantham Bain, a member of the Dominion police force is seen standing proudly outside the court where Hawley Harvey Crippen's trial took place. The case was one that captivated the nation and international attention, as it marked the first time a suspect had been caught using forensic science to evade capture.
The officer in question, Gauvreau, stands tall with his coat buttoned up and hat firmly planted on his head. His well-groomed moustache adds a touch of dignity to an already imposing figure. The photograph captures the gravity of the situation as Crippen's fate was being decided.
The Crippen case was a landmark moment in forensic history, marking one of the first times that science played such a crucial role in solving a crime. This image serves as a testament to Gauvreau's dedication to justice and his commitment to upholding the law during this pivotal time. The photograph is now part of Heritage Images' extensive collection, offering us a glimpse into an era where technology was rapidly changing the way crimes were solved.
