Victim of bizarre murder appears to help him solve the case
Back in 1897, there was an Asian woman named Elva Shu in West Virginia, who was the wife of blacksmith Edward Shu. One day, a neighbor found Elva dead. She was lying at the foot of the stairs in an awkward position. This case was initially judged to be a natural death after a brief examination by a local doctor. Why was it said to be minor? At that time, her husband Edward gently picked up the body and protected her head and neck. He did not want anyone to touch his dead wife. He even helped her change into high-collar clothes and scarf, and only allowed others to check the condition of the body. If this situation happened in modern times, everyone would immediately think that it was Edward who committed the murder and made these suspicious actions. However, some people in that era were less serious about women and were not very particular about investigative actions. The doctor believed that Edward’s behavior was not the focus of the case, and directly ruled that Elva died due to complications from the pregnancy. He also said that she had suffered a permanent fainting, and then dismissed the matter hastily.
At the time, Elva’s mother, Mary Jane Hester, believed that Edward had killed her daughter, but the circumstances were such that it was difficult to convict without evidence, and she could only pray that the truth would somehow be revealed. Discover. Unexpectedly, Mary began to have the same dream in succession. Her daughter Elva appeared in the dream and pointed out that Edward had broken her neck simply because he did not like the dinner at that time.

Mary approached local lawyer John Preston. After hearing the situation, he chose to help the mother who had lost her daughter. He ordered Elva’s body to be exhumed from the grave for inspection, and found out that Elva was indeed killed by Edward. The truth about the killing. The case later went to court, and Mary testified on her daughter’s behalf. Although these ghost-related claims may have been considered crazy nonsense, she maintained her position with a firm attitude and ultimately convinced the jury of her story. encounter, accepting these supernatural evidences. After the trial, the case was dubbed by some as “the only known case in which ghost testimony helped convict the killer” and was even engraved on a plaque commemorating Elva’s memory telling her story of pulling her killer from the grave.
