has abstract	The Coffin affair was an event in Canadian history in which a man named Wilbert Coffin was hanged for the murder of three men. The affair started in June 1953 in Gaspésie when three men from Pennsylvania were reported missing. Their bodies were found a month later deep in the woods 60 km (37 mi) from the nearest town. (en) L'affaire Coffin qui s'est déroulée au Québec dans les années 1950 est l'une des affaires judiciaires les plus célèbres au Canada. Par ses répercussions dans les médias, son impact politique et ses conséquences sur le système de justice, notamment sa contribution essentielle dans l'abolition de la peine de mort au Canada, elle est un exemple significatif des abus de pouvoir et de la fragilité des systèmes judiciaires. Encore aujourd'hui, l'opinion publique est très divisée sur la culpabilité de l'accusé, le prospecteur gaspésien Wilbert Coffin qui a été pendu le 10 février 1956 pour le meurtre de trois chasseurs américains.
