The Parker–Hulme murder case was the murder of Honorah Mary Rieper (also known as Honorah Mary Parker) in Christchurch, New Zealand, on 22 June 1954. The perpetrators were Rieper's teenaged daughter Pauline Parker and her friend Juliet Hulme. Parker was 16 at the time, while Hulme was 15. Both were sentenced to five years imprisonment and given new identities upon release. Hulme, under the name Anne Perry, became a detective fiction author, which only came public knowledge in 1994.
The murder received wider public attention following the release of Peter Jackson's 1994 film Heavenly Creatures.
