Norman Thorne
Murderer
About
Jump to
Norman Thorne (ca 1900 – 22 April 1925) was an English chicken farmer and murderer. He strangled his mistress Elsie Cameron on 5 December 1924 after she claimed he had made her pregnant, and later dismembered the body. Suspicion fell on him when he claimed the girl had hanged herself in the barn but it was discovered that the beam in his barn was covered in a thick layer of dust. This made his story of discovering her lifeless body and cutting her down seem improbable. Police also discovered newspaper cuttings about a murder that had occurred in 1924, one committed by Patrick Mahon, who had also dismembered the corpse of his victim. This finding hinted at pre-mediation on the part of Thorne and he was quickly arrested.
