Actress Gay Gibson met a mysterious death on an ocean liner in 1947

In 1947 actress Gay Gibson disappeared from her cabin on an ocean liner off the coast of West Africa. The deck steward, James Camb, admitted to pushing her body out a porthole, but insisted she had died of natural causes and not in a sexual assault. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll review the curious case of the porthole murder, which is still raising doubts today.
We'll also explore another fraudulent utopia and puzzle over a pedestrian's victory.
