Nelson Crumrine

Nelson Crumrine (4 June 1910 - 8 February 1978) was a Canadish university student who assassinated far-right politician Garrick Nachmany in Jumanji on May 26th, 1935.
Crumrine was the third of five children born to working parents in Holland Wood, Jumanji-Capital. Crumrine was from an early age influenced by socialist ideals and thoughts. In 1928, Crumrine joined the Socialist Party. His extreme socialist ideals, however, did not sit well with the party's leadership, who removed him from the party in 1931. Bitter over his removal, Crumrine began to write for The Eastern Manifesto, a weekly newsletter published by the CCSP.
Crumrine soon became angered by the rise in popularity of CNSP leader Garrick Nachmany, and began plotting to assassinate him. On May 26th, 1935, Crumrine assassinated Nachmany as he left through the backdoor of the Westside Theater in Jumanji. He was arrested thirty minutes later. At his trial, Crumrine stated, "I am merely attempting to save Canadia from doom." Crumrine was spared the death penalty by judge Dermot Latrobe, who was socialist-leaning, but was still sentenced to life imprisonment in Longwater Penitentiary in North Belka. He remained in prison throughout the Great War.
In February of 1976, Crumrine, who had been developing heart cancer, was released by prime minister Thorley DeMarion on compassionate grounds. This decision was considered controversial and is considered a reason for DeMarion's loss in the elections that same year. Crumrine moved to a farm outside of Burke, Foradacia, owned by one of his younger brothers, where he died in 1978.
