Ephraim Littlefield
So convinced of Webster's guilt, Littlefield chiselled through a stone wall to unearth Dr. Parkman's bones from under Webster's privey. As the janitor of the Medical College, Littlefield was aware of what went on in the building and followed his suspicions into it's foundation. Some speculate that Littlefield framed Webster and was himself Parkman's killer. Since then, most historians have concluded that Webster was guilty, even if the trial was flawed.
