 Preceding the end credits: "In the hours following Honoras murder, a   police search of the Rieper house unearthed Paulines diaries. This   resulted in her immediate arrest for the murder of her mother. Juliet   was arrested and charged with murder the following day. After Paulines   arrest it was discovered that Honora and Herbert Rieper had never   married. Pauline was therefore charged under her mothers maiden name of   Parker. In August 1954, a plea of insanity was rejected by the jury in   the Christchurch Supreme Court trial, and Pauline Parker and Juliet   Hulme were found guilty of murder. Too young for the death penalty, they   were sent to separate prisons to be Detained at Her Majestys   Pleasure. Juliet was released in November, 1959 and immediately left   New Zealand to join her mother overseas. Pauline was released two weeks   later but remained in New Zealand on parole until 1965. It was a   condition of their release that they never meet again."
