The Christmas Murder That Took the Jury Just 3 Minutes to Decide

On Christmas Day, 1909, in the struggling port town of Holyhead, Wales, a woman named Gwen Ellen Jones disappeared into the night. Within hours, a man calmly walked through the streets confessing to her murder.

This video examines the true historical case of William Murphy, a former soldier whose jealousy, obsession, and violence culminated in one of the most disturbing Christmas Day murders in British history. Drawing on inquest records, court testimony, and contemporary newspaper reports, we reconstruct the final days of Gwen Ellen Jones and the swift trial that followed.

But questions remain.

Was justice truly served when the jury reached a verdict in just three minutes?
Did poverty, reputation, and moral judgment shape the outcome more than evidence?
