Femme Fatale Evelyn Dick

What Happens in the Woods

We’re ringing in the new year with a bonus episode!
This sordid tale comes to us from the Eastern side of Canada in the 1940s. It’s a captivating story that to this day is still talked about.
When the torso of a man was found by a group of children on a mountainside, one suspect quickly emerged. John Dick and his wife of only 6 months had a very short and volatile relationship. So when his body was identified by family members, police went in search of the estranged Mrs. Dick.
Evelyn MacLean Dick was a beautiful young woman who was accustomed to having the best. She was wildly sought after by influential and powerful men in the town of Hamilton, Ontario for her company. She led a very comfortable life, able to have anything her heart desired. When what she wanted was to marry blue-collar immigrant John Dick, her parents were less than pleased.
After being held on suspicion of murdering John, her wild tales and outrageous statements would lead police to a former lover, a hired mafia hitman, and her own father. It also led them to a sad discovery in her very own attic.
The notorious Mr. Evelyn Dick has taken her secrets to the grave and the world will forever wonder what exactly happened all those years ago to her poor husband. But that hasn’t stopped people from speculating about her and her life.
