https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janet_Smith_case
>The Janet Smith case concerns the murder of 22-year-old nursemaid Janet Kennedy Smith in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on 26 July 1924, and the ensuing suspicions of a coverup.
>Janet Smith was born in Perth, Scotland, on 25 June 1902 to railway fireman Arthur Mitchell Tooner Smith and Joanna Benzies.[1] The family moved to London when she was aged 11. In January 1923, Smith obtained a position taking care of the newborn daughter of Frederick and Doreen Baker. Frederick Baker ran an import-export business. When the family moved, first to Paris in April, then in October back to Vancouver, Smith accompanied them.
>A Chinese houseboy, Wong Foon Sing, between 25 and 27 years of age (who had arrived in Canada in 1913, leaving his family in Hong Kong), soon became infatuated with Smith and gave her presents, such as a silk nightdress. Smith's friends later testified she had feared him.
>On 26 July 1924, Point Grey Police Constable James Green was called to the house. Wong claimed he had heard a sound that resembled a car backfiring, and then found Smith's body in the basement. The police inspected Smith's body and found a bullet wound in her temple. A .45 caliber revolver lay near her right hand.
