S2 E4 The Monster Butler

本集简介

Fred Dinenage investigates one of Scotland's most enigmatic serial killers, Archibald Hall known as the Monster Butler.

Hall's lust for a luxurious lifestyle turned him from a conman and jewellery thief into a callous murderer. Fred discovers what drove Hall to kill from local journalist, Frank Ryan, Hall's Lawyer, Len Murray and Alan Place, a police officer who was handcuffed to Hall on his arrest.

Fred also finds out about Hall's abilities to exaggerate and glamorise his own so-called achievements; Fred meets author Allan Nicol who disproves many of Hall's wild claims and reveals the truth behind this cold murderer's lies.

John Straffen: Longest Serving Prisoner

Fred Dinenage looks back over the life of John Straffen; at the age of 21 he strangled two little girls but escaped the hangman's noose due to his low IQ of just 58.

After six months at Broadmoor Straffen escaped and committed a third murder on another young girl in a local village. This time he was reprimanded in maximum security prisons and remained so for the next 55 years.

Straffen died in prison in 2007 but continues to carry the title of Britain's longest serving prisoner.
