In the wake of a two-year love affair, just before Easter
in 1962, Edmonton golf pro Frank Willey went missing. Neither he, nor his
body, were ever found.
Despite the victim’s absence, a trial held at Edmonton’s
Supreme Court ended in the conviction of two men, Raymond Daniel Workman and
William Huculak, who were each found guilty of capital murder and sentenced to hang
until death.
An unusual case (given the lack of a body), the Workman
Huculak trial was a prime example of how guilt can be proven without
standard, and one might say obligatory evidence. While the murderers managed
to hide Frank Willey, they were unable to erase the complicated and bloody
trail that ultimately led prosecutors to discover and prove their guilt.
