About
Jump to
Isabel LeBourdais, née Erichsen-Brown (15 April 1909 – 2003) was a Canadian journalist and author. She is best known as the author of the 1966 book The Trial of Steven Truscott, the first major work to argue that Steven Truscott had been wrongfully convicted of murder. LeBourdais's book was instrumental in pushing the Federal Government to ask the Supreme Court to review the trial in 1966. Eventually, in August 2007, after many years of legal proceedings, the Ontario Court of Appeal overturned the conviction stating it was a "miscarriage of justice" that "must be quashed."
