I've read the transcript of Leslie Ann Downey's torture and s3xual abuse, and it is truly heartbreaking. The christmas song "The Little Drummer Boy" sung by The Ray Conniff Singers was playing in the background (the song was mentioned in the transcript, as was the other christmas song that was played but i don't remember which song it was). It was one of my favourite versions of the song when i was a kid, but at the time i had no idea of the tragedies that occurred. Now, i find it hard to listen to without thinking of what pure hell Leslie endured. What these two despicable, vile, and worthless wastes of oxygen did to the 5 children is disgusting, horrendous and atrocious. They should have gotten worse beatings by other prisoners than what they'd got. I hope the 5 children are resting peacefully, even Keith Bennett, whose body was never found. Im sure his mother is with him now, holding him in her arms.

Great documentary. I've seen dozens of documentaries on the Moors Murders, but just when you think Brady and Hindley couldn't be any more evil, you hear lots of new details in this film about how they caused extra suffering for the parents, like refusing to confirm that it was them on the tape so that the police were forced to play it to Lesley Anne Downey's parents. And the fact that Brady and Hindley swapped letters detailing sick fantasies of what they wanted to do to other children for YEARS after they were in prison. And Hindley's letters to the children's parents, full of lies and self serving deceit.

[@GradKat]

She was a piece of work. Hard as nails - no compassion whatsoever. She wrote to Brady after their incarceration, until she realised it didn’t do her any favours. Then she spent several years pulling the wool over the eyes of bleeding-heart liberal Lord Longford. After she had served many years in jail, a visitor asked her how she could abduct a 10 year old child (Lesley), to which Hindley replied “Well she shouldn’t have been out so late”. She referred to the mother of one of her victims as “a hypocritical old bag” who needed “a brain implant”. I was very relieved when Hindley died in prison; I couldn’t bear the thought that she might somehow wangle her freedom. After her death, the prison authorities had difficulty finding a local firm of undertakers who would handle the funeral; nobody wanted anything to do with the evil monster.

No god's mercy touched the young victims or their devastated families. The parents spent years being suspected by the police, and therefore everyone, of murdering their own children. David Smith, who put an end to the murders, was treated by the public as though he was a partner of Brady and Hinley's, rather than the person who told the police. He ended up having to leave the country. Brady and Hinley tormented the families for decades with their changing stories, publicity seeking, drip dripping of information and details, true or false, but always as part of endless years of bargaining. And both of them lived for a long time. Where was any god during any of that?

The little boy that wasn’t found who they murdered could be in a wall cavity of a terrace that Bradley rented . One of many rental properties that the two heinous drifters stayed in for a short duration. I remember following the case intensively many years ago. It wasn’t unusual for people to put bodies in attics, crawl spaces and bury people in their own back yards. There was a case in Australia many years ago where a man murdered he’s wife and buried her under the patio all while he’s three sons were at school. John Wayne Gacey buried a victim under a barbecue and he put victims in a crawl space under he’s house. Babies who are unwanted have been put in staircases and stuffed up in the rafters of houses. Women discard new borns in trash cans and dumpsters as if the child is last nights food scraps. You would be surprised at just how many people are buried on the very premises the killer or killers reside in. There was a woman in the United States in 1940 who put a new born baby in a cheese cake package and placed it in the freezer section of her refrigerator. She told her son not to open the cheese cake package. Everything else in the freezer he could eat from except that particular package. Years later when the woman passed away the son had the job of cleaning out the house and putting it up for sale. He always wondered why he’s mother put strict rules on him not to touch the cheesecake package. Lo and behold he discovered he’s new born baby brother in the box. The baby had been in there for four decades. Human beings can do very evil things. Stay safe and protect yourself and your children from these evil predators. These people work amongst us, shop in the same places we do and ride on public transport with us, they could even be our next door neighbours.

[@margaretflounders8510]

Nope...

[@saciji]

I was a teenager on the other side of the world. I recall somethimg about tapes but i dont think the details were available for public consumption. Then later living in london, i recall lord longford's well meaning, but naïve campaign. I think it safe to say that both were irredeemable and if released Hindley would have probably embarked on something similar yet again. Some behaviours are inate. With some affect states therapy is ineffective. A fact. Sad, but a cursed soul whose rôle was to do evil.

I would bet my life that any person who pleaded for her release wouldn't let her near their family 😢a vile heartless subhuman.

[@clangerism]

I'm pretty sure that all inmates letters are vetted so the claim that they were still exchanging letters about their sick fantasies seems pretty unlikely.

[@simmiesim321]

Your spot on there’s no way they could be in touch with each other

[@dee-deelove9310]

They were exchanging them secretly at their lawyer visits during their trial

[@uksanddancer]

No actually! I had an ex in prison sending death letters every wk and on the front of the letters it would say sick stuff about hurting me and the got to me every week! The fact a Nunn-turned-screw tells us just how corrupt people are but able to work in important jobs. The system has always been corrupt from top to bottom.

[@BruceLee-fd7uw]

​@dee-deelove9310 No they were not, no lawyer is going to ruin a career reputation and pension for a pair of evil child rapist killers

[@jonsmith20766]

They looked like normal correspondences but they had a system where they both knew that a certain number of words per line or sentence would make up the real message(s).

[@Sandra-t2z8r]

And evil monster Hindlay remarked “stupid girl should never have been out at that time of night”

[@carolevans5285]

Bless that father, why werent they found in there cells HANGING. As a mother to me any women that can do this is EVIL. There banging on about Dangerous dogs but people like this are treated like Royalty in jail. It makes me sick. God bless there parents how could u ever live with this . Now being a nonce is being normalised how far are the British public gonna let this go .?

[@gowdsake7103]

Oh just consider this by your iron age dogma she will go to heaven she said sowwy to your sky daddy

[@limbicbrain1]

Thats a rough 23 years old.

[@saramorisani]

Thanks

[@Genetulsa1]

How many commercials are you going to have in this upload ?

[@Runner-e9x]

"They didn't believe him", "they let her go, so she went to destroy evidence". Such a misconduct, it's almost the police is accomplices the killers

[@laurabealmear9293]

Evil just simply amazing that this evil exists, I don’t know why I watch these things, I guess I’m still amazed these people are actually real

[@RoanPretorius-de7xv]

A gay nun ? With a serial sexual killer ? Gabriel needs those trumpets in good working order!!

[@patriciahall2223]

I hope they rot in hell , the poor parents & families have suffered all these yrs my heart aches for the parents .....and they sat in a cell not a care in the world everything handed to them & still exchanging horrific codes it doesn't make sense does it . God Bless all these children ......heartbreakingly sad .

[@kateylondon7345]

I hope that they are wrong, but there are many that believe for valid different reasons ,that myra hindly was released from prison. When you think about it, the public wouldnt be allowed to know as it would cause an uproar, so it is not so far fetched that she was released with a whole difcer3nt identity, i hope that someone in the right position can find out 1 way or another. The monster Hindly says she was sorry, but if that were really true, she wouldnt want freedom, she would feel that she didnt deserve it after what she had done, i mean things like this, sorry just doesnt cut it!

[@Andrewcavey]

the case should never be closed until that little lad Keith Bennett is found so he can be laid to rest with his mum Winnie

[@suegibson9643]

Stop using photos of actors playing these reprehensible creatures.

[@hilaryjuliecoxon5434]

Such a shame the death sentence was abolished.

[@Genetulsa1]

How commercials are you to have ? Not even 12 minutes into the video. And we are subject to 4 minutes of commercials!

[@NobodyOwens_72]

It makes you wonder what kind of people wanted Hindley out . Who would ever want that . People trying to get her out should of themselves been huge red flags for dangerous weirdos

[@brendanduffy2367]

Once I hear dramatic music on a documentary I switch off.

[@roberttreborable]

I was thirteen at the time, this of course dominated the news, how the detectives could keep from not attacking Brady and Hindley, I don't know...

[@NoosaHeads]

When was this film made?

[@lucifer-ic9th]

Who plays Ian in this? A very hard figure to portrait on the screen but the guy did a good job.

[@jackflash743]

awas the paole board insane, saying she should serve at least five more years, how felling decent of them, bet they didnt even know the name of the poor kids the 2 scumbags murdered and raped and tortured and made recording of it, and the morons on th ep arole board seemed willing to let her out sometime in the future, god help us with the stupids laws we have here in the uk

[@sheilaboston7051]

And then at the next parole hearing they can put it off for another five years. That's sometimes how they have to do it, in order to comply with the law. There was no way Hindley was ever going to be let out.

[@HoodaThunkit-sj3lk]

I thought the picture was Dermot Morgan - Father Ted - in a comedy sketch

[@judepower4425]

A correction: it's not correct that the photo's indicated where ALL the bodies were - one body has never been found to this day.

[@judepower4425]

PS: It's Keith Bennett who has never been found

[@Marcel_Audubon]

"a former nun turned prison officer" - the cast of creepy characters never ends, does it ... some reporter needs to research the circumstances for this little lady leaving the convent - bet there's a story there. I wonder if the police thoroughly investigated all those other names on the notebook page that contained John Kilbride's name - those could be additional missing children. They don't seem like the sharpest police team.

[@carolineolsenarnold7039]

Does anyone know what year this was filmed

[@claudiastead8804]

So sad that Keith Bennett hasn't been found as yet its been 60 years wen them evil monsters took Keith to Saddleworth moors rip 🙏 Keith Bennett I hope one day you will be found

[@NobodyOwens_72]

Makes you wonder what Longford was up to ?

[@mervynhardy6161]

It isnt limited re sources the word is resources.

[@brianbooth679]

Oh satans got a special place for brady & hindley.

[@iggieBajiggy.23]

It exposes police methods and pointlessness

[@heatherthomas1754]

Utterly heartbreaking. Hope those two rot in hell.

[@RoanPretorius-de7xv]

She was a monster!!!! Nothing less!!

[@PSD-ms8yl]

This was abit misleading. very little of the letters were covered. Basically only a passing mention.
