Police found 72-year-old Jane Hings' body on Sunday, September 24th, 2017. DNA samples found at the scene found a match for then 25-year-old Craig Keogh, who was subsequently arrested.

To complement the DNA evidence, the police begin to build a case against Keogh and track his movements on the dates in question. On the night of the murder, Keogh had visited a local pub, where he allegedly told others he was 'geared off his t**t'.

He was said to have been 'acting aggressively throughout the evening,' and the day after the murder, he sold the jewellery he had taken from Jane Hings' bungalow to buy food and drink for friends.

The investigation found that Keogh knew Jane Hings and walked her dog, Paddy, on several occasions. Keogh was charged with murder, two counts of rape, and burglary in connection with Jane's death. During the trial, Keogh claimed they had consensual sex and told officers Hings had paid him for sex and was still alive when he left her. The jury took just four hours to reject Keogh's version of events and find him guilty of rape and murder.

In April 2012, Dawn and George Kibble visited the flat of Dawn's sister Julie Davison, concerned for her wellbeing after repeated phone calls went unanswered. On arrival, they found Julie's lifeless body on the blood-stained floor of her kitchen. She'd been attacked, stabbed multiple times, and left for dead.

Julie's home had been burgled with the killer making off with her laptop, jewellery, cash, and items of her clothing. The Police immediately began to investigate the crime and found a cigarette butt close to the scene that became crucial in the case's progression.

The investigation saw Police zero in on a suspect, James Allen, who was captured on CCTV wearing Julie's coat and trainers. That afternoon he sold a necklace identical to one missing from Julie's home and was seen carrying a laptop computer in a bag identical to one missing from Julie's flat.

Three days earlier, he had killed 81-year-old Colin Dunford in Middlesbrough, again following a robbery at the victim's home.

A week on from the murder of Colin Dunford, Allen was arrested by an off-duty police officer in Leeds. In November 2012, Allen was found guilty of both murders and was given a life sentence with no parole for 37 years.
