On June 22, 1954, Pauline Parker, 16, murdered her mother, 45 year old Honorah Parker, with the assistance of her friend, 15-year-old Juliet Hulme, in Christchurch, New Zealand. After serving their sentences, the pair re-entered society with new identities, which were ultimately uncovered around the release of a 1994 film based on the crime, Peter Jackson’s ‘Heavenly Creatures’.
