Causes célèbres du Québec : les grands procès de l'histoire du Québec
|
| Abstract |
Includes an examination of the trial of Wilbert Coffin (1915-1956), who was hanged for the 1953 murder of three American hunters in the Gaspé region of Quebec. The case is a cause-celebre because some people believe that the Anglophone Coffin was a scapegoat used by Quebec Premier Maurice Duplessis who feared the impact of the murders of three foreigners on the tourism industry in the province.
