Eva Curry was born on the 17th June 1889 in Haliburton, Canada. She moved to New York State in 1921 after marrying her husband William Coo.In New York, Eva was running a brothel, when she was entrusted with the care of one of her employees, a handyman with learning difficulties named Henry Wright. After the death of Wright’s mother, Coo embezzled his inheritance and burned his house for the insurance. She then conspired with another employee, Martha Clift, to murder him. On the 14th June 1934, the two women drove Wright to a remote location outside Oneonta, New York, where Eva hit Wright with a mallet and Martha ran him over with a car. They then dumped Wright’s body beside the road to simulate a hit-and-run accident.Coo was executed on the 27th June 1935 in the Electric Chair at Sing Sing Prison.
