Abstract
are the reports of the psychiatrists called for the Crown and for the defence.The book is concluded with a summary of the Scott-Heftderson enquiry into the death of Mrs. Evans.A series of appendices give fuller details of material used in the text.The case, with its sexual background, is remarkable for the number of women murdered in the same house and the repeated use of carbon mon- oxide as a preliminary to strangling.Although the description of such crimes must of necessity be horrible, the importance of this publication to those engaged in medico-legal work is very great.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
