In 1889 Florence Elizabeth Maybrick 1862-1941 a American-born socialite was convicted for fatally poisoning her husband James Maybrick a Liverpool cotton merchant with a history of drug abuse. Despite scanty evidence pointing to her guilt and several procedural irregularities she was sentenced to death. Public outrage led the Home Office to commute her sentence to life in prison. She was released 15 years later. This case attracted a great deal of attention and generated a large bibliography. Densmore a medical doctor believed Maybrick was innocent and deserved a retrial. Written while Maybrick was in prison her study argues that Mr. Maybrick poisoned himself.
