Judith Anderson's accusation of Murder (spoiler)

This one was pretty ridiculous. A cold aunt talks her sister into sending her juvenile delinquent son to a reformatory and he commits suicide there - therefore she's guilty of his murder??? WTF??? She may have been one frosty, judgemental bitch but how could anyone remotely consider her a murderer, even "U. K. Nown". Anderson is terrific in this film though.

Well, they couldn't use the original crime in the 1940s--she fires a pregnant servant girl and the girl subsequently kills herself.

Even so, she did not kill her and many in the same situation have not killed themselves.
