Bigger than all of California, half of Nevada and a slice of Oregon combined, Canada’s westernmost province British Columbia was mostly uninhabited and unexplored, a century ago. But thanks to an effective justice system and a good working relationship with bordering Washington, most murder cases were solved and resolved with a trial, conviction and punishment. (Chief Justice Matthew B. Begbie is still remembered as the ‘hanging judge’.) There were exceptions, of course, and Capital Crime covers both solved and unsolved true crimes.
