70 years ago

Honorah Mary Rieper is beaten to death by murderess Pauline Parker aka Heavenly Creature at the age of 45 in Victoria Park, Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand.

Parker was involved in a lesbian relationship with 15-year-old Juliet Hulme. It is believed that the two girls killed Rieper because Hulme and her father were leaving shortly for South Africa and though Parker wanted to accompany them, her mother forbade it.
