The Glensheen murders were the murders of Elisabeth Mannering Congdon and her night nurse Velma Pietila on June 27, 1977, in Duluth, Minnesota, USA, at the Glensheen Historic Estate.[1]
The motive was initially thought to be robbery, but soon the authorities began to suspect Congdon's son-in-law Roger Caldwell and adopted daughter Marjorie Congdon.[2] Eventually he would be convicted and she would be acquitted.[2] Later she would be found guilty of arson and fraud, crimes for which she served prison time.[3]
