BRITISH KILLERS - SPECIAL COMPILATION EDITIONThis Special Edition tells the stories of 27 true crimes, and the events around them, which took place in the UK and captured the attention of the British media and public at the time. Here's an outline of a few of them: *The HitmanIt was one of Scotland Yard's most shocking cases. Six brutal murders that only came to light during a routine robbery investigation.*The New Forest MassacreIt started as the robbery of the house of a wealthy elderly couple. It was to end in the death of five people, as the robbers indulged in a horrifying orgy of rape and murder.*Manhunt on the MoorsWhen a policeman was found shot dead beside his car, no one imagined the killer would strike again within days. But he did, beginning a murder spree that led to a massive manhunt right across Yorkshire.*Mary Bell - The Child Who KilledWhen a toddler was found dead in a Newcastle slum, it was first thought to have been a terrible accident. But the youngster had been murdered - killed by a 10-year-old girl.*Dead In Devils DykeDavid Lashley was a violent rapist with a deep hatred of blonde women, so when the beautiful Australian heiress Janie Shepherd went missing in February 1977, he was soon a suspect.*The Stockwell Strangler*During the heatwave of 1986 a serial killer was on the loose in South London - a cruel, perverted maniac who selected his victims from the weak, the sick and the elderly who made the fatal mistake of leaving their windows open at night.*The First Murders Solved by DNATwo teenage girls had been strangled in the same Leicestershire neighbourhood. A combination of DNA profiling being used for the first time ever in a criminal case, and good detective work would finally catch the killer.*Peter Manuel - The Beast of BirkenshawPeter Manuel was a loner; a compulsive thief and liar whose juvenile delinquency led to an adult criminal career specializing in burglary and assault. But in 1956 something changed. What turned him into Scotland's most wicked serial killer, eventually convicted and hanged on the gallows for the murder of 7 people?*Michael Sams - Killer KidnapperThe first kidnapping had failed, and ended with the savage murder of his victim, 18 year old prostitute Julie Dart. But far from being discouraged, Michael Sams tried again. This time he became the first British kidnapper ever to get away with the ransom. Unfortunately for him, the police were on his trail.*The Killer SalesmanJohn Cannan and was a good-looking, smart, smooth talking car salesman. But behind his personable facade lay a cruel and sadistic sex killer
