Police Museum Collections Curator Jessica Aitken recounts how white supremacist and murderer Lionel Terry began drawing the detective he obsessed over, Edward Eade.
It’s a strange collection of items in the cabinet as you walk through the front doors of the New Zealand Police Museum in Porirua. A caricature, an artwork and a sword. At first glance, nothing connects them. But together they are reminders of Detective Edward Eade, the murderer who became obsessed with him and the Chinese man who was shot in the street.
