Sidney Colbourne lived in Oak Bay, Victoria and frequently beat up his wife Vera and their five-year-old daughter. One night, the gun that Sid bought to keep Vera in line, went off and shot him in the head. It was 1938. Vera was arrested for murder, and Inspector Vance was asked to investigate.

This podcast is based on original research from a chapter in my book Blood, Sweat, and Fear: The Story of Inspector Vance.
