Murder of Pamela Werner

Unsolved murder of young Englishwoman in 1937 Beijing

On the morning of 8 January 1937, the severely mutilated body of Pamela Werner was found near the Fox Tower in Beijing, China, just outside the city's Legation Quarter. The only child of sinologist and retired British diplomat E. T. C. Werner, Pamela had last been seen by acquaintances just before leaving a skating rink the previous night. No one was ever charged in the case.
