Murder
On January 21, 1985, Eaton was stabbed twenty-one times and then raped in her Farnham Street apartment [1] in Toronto. An acquaintance of Eaton's, Ernest John Andrew Leyshon-Hughes,[2] also known as Andrew Leyshon-Hughes, who was himself a member of the prominent Canadian Osler family, admitted to murdering her, but was found not guilty by reason of insanity. He was indefinitely remanded to the custody of The Ontario Review Board.[3] In February 2001, Leyshon-Hughes was living at the Royal Ottawa Hospital and was a student at Algonquin College.[4] In 2005, Leyshon-Hughes was discharged from the psychiatric hospital into the community.[2]
In popular culture
