From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jerome Caminada (1844 – March 1914) was a 19th-century police officer in Manchester, England. Caminada served with the police between 1868 and 1899, and has been called Manchester's Sherlock Holmes.[1] In 1897 he became the city's first CID superintendent. His most famous case was the Manchester Cab Murder[2] of 1889, in which he discovered and brought the initially unknown perpetrator to trial and conviction only three weeks after the murder.[3]
