Further to my post above, the last thing he should do before he shuffles off his mortal coil is reveal the details of where Keith Bennetts body lies, I don't believe he doesn't remember.

He should be receiving no care at all, but left to suffer in agony. Sorry state of affairs when sh#te like this are treated humanly.

Well he wont be sipping a nice cup of Darjeeling tea with Saville that's for sure. Frightening the depths of depravity humans can sink to. It is nice to think that he might now facing some kind of eternal justice following his temporal incarceration through this life rather than just a rotting corpse in the ground.
I suppose if we measure ourselves against these monsters then we can feel like saints.

I wonder if this man had any family ? They must have served his sentence too and their pain must have been far greater than anything he suffered.

So many broken people.

I shall never understand why Lord Longford battled to win Myra Hindley's parole for decades.

It could have been an exceedingly shrewd move by Lord Longford. It was his actions that kept them in jail.

Possibly was his intentions.

I remember all the goings on at the time, but too young to take much interest or in the following years.
We only had the radio and of course, news was restricted to certain times of day.

I definitely don't agree with you DD about Longfords fight to get Hindley out of prison as being a shrewd move. I remember seeing many an interview with this crazy looking and crazy in head too man. He was passionate in his fight and obsessed with her , possibly a love interest. He wanted her released badly all this rubbish about her being a reformed character and so intelligent, finding God!

Longford was often classed as being quite thick but if you look at what he managed to change despite it often being against the odds, he was clearly a lot cleverer/shrewder than he was given credit for.

Sometimes at a later date a contradiction would become clear eg he was totally opposed to homosexuality and fought against homosexual rights but was also one of the main protagonists for basic homosexual rights.

If it wasn't for Longford, Hindley's and Brady's cases would have disappeared out the public eye and they would have eventually been paroled, especially as much more lenient sentencing was becoming the norm as well as the wish of the system to reform prisoners instead of keeping them inside.

Hindley realised the damage Longford was doing to her chances of parole and eventually shunned him - but he carried on, knowing full well the damage he was doing. Hindley might have thought she was playing him at one time and this might have been his revenge.

Nobody knows for sure whether Longford was playing a game or not but there is certainly a chance. Religion has always been a useful weapon to some but it can be used two ways.

I would like to think you were right DD, but I doubt that it was his intention, more like he thought the god squad had got through to her, only one manipulator there, as regards parole no chance public opinion was too strong, I read the book many years ago, it still gives me shivers to think of the horrifying ordeal that was carried out on those children especially Lesley Anne Downe, and fills me with a dread and a feeling that I wish I could have done something personally, no doubt a feeling of helplessness as a parent that couldn't protect a child, and Hindley stood by and let it happen, sickening.

Final act of evil this thing wants is his ashes to be scattered on Saddleworth Moor, trying to have the last laugh!! .... They should be thrown onto a rubbish dump, eventually go into landfill with all the other rubbish. He shouldn't even have a funeral just burn him and get rid...
