Murder on Pitcairn Island Shocks Longtime Murrow
A New York Press report says Pitcairn Island for the first time in its 119 year history records a murder. Harry A Christian, descendant of mutineers, killed a woman and her child in a forest, then attempted to wed another woman. The case drew royal involvement, with British authorities sending a judicial commissioner to try him. The island’s parliament and people, descendants of the Bounty mutineers, maintain religious discipline and isolation under Queen Victoria’s outline.
