Murrell, Hilda (c. 1906–1984)
English anti-nuclear activist. Born c. 1906 in UK; died Mar 21, 1984.
Well-known activist, was found dead near her ransacked home in Shrewsbury (Mar 24, 1984), just before she was to present a paper on the hazards of nuclear waste to the Sizewell-B nuclear power station inquiry. Though a laborer from Shrewsbury (Andrew George) was given a life sentence for the murder (May 6, 2005), there are still those who strongly believe in a conspiracy.
