People understandably focus on the evil Mister Christie. Unfortunately, they tend to overlook the police who railroaded poor Mister Evans. The botched investigation was bad enough, but cops who deliberately coerce confessions deserve the severest punishment. They are far more numerous than the odd serial killer, and almost always unaccountable

The fact Christe actually admitted to the murder of Beryl, and then only retracted when Evan's mother begged him to also admit to the baby, literally seals his guilt, without taking the fact he was a prolific serial killer in to account... So i think Beryl's brother is in denial, he clearly didn't like Evans and very much liked Christie, so i think it's this fact and an understandable large amount of grief that's led to his denial at refusing to believe anyone other than Evans killed his sister, let alone Christie...

@cheryllochhead4714 Жыл бұрын
No he wasnt in denial Timothy Evans was abusive physically to Geraldine. He should know he was there plenty times witnessing their arguements. John Evans was a pathological liar, but one of his warders had no doubt he murdered his baby and wife, he admitted it before he was executed, he even mentioned it to another prisoner. There were bruises all over Beryls body, not mentioned during the trial, he was an abusive drunkard, and even a psychiatrist mentioned he was an inadequate psychopath. John Christie gassed his victims. There was no need to subdue them, before he strangled and raped them. There was no sign of gas in Beryls body during the autopsy or signs of an abortion. Her husband strangled her after one of their arguements probably over money, and he murdered Geraldine because he couldnt handle her crying. John Christie helped him hiding the bodies, because he would not have wanted the police to come to house, as he had bodies in kitchen living room and garden

I didn't know Beryl's brother still considered Evans the murderer of his sister and niece even after several inquiries showed a serious miscarriage of justice just because he remembers the Christie's foundly and doesn't remember his brother-in-law foundly. It really goes to show how much nostelgia can affect a person's perception even when faced with hard facts and evidence you've been blaming the wrong person for decades. He somehow made himself believe Evans had to have killed his sister and niece, even though he'd have to explain away 6 other bodies all killed before and after Evans lived there that were killed by Christie in the exact same fashion as Beryl and the baby, and disposed of in the exact same fashion as them as well; to solely blame Evans for the murder. I mean could he still blame Evans as having been a party to the murder along with Christie? Sure. But instead he decided "nope the Christie's where always nice to me so there is no reason a person that murdered people before and after my sister and niece were murdered in that exact same house would have had anything to do with her murder. It was all my shite head brother-in-law's doing Christie was on a Hiatus or something while my sister lived there!"

Hence, I can understand why some of them are hesitant of believing the police about the identities of the bodies and maybe doubts that Gacy actually killed their son.

The police believed a man who was ‘one of them’. The idea that a fellow officer could be a killer was beyond their imagination. So serial killer got away with murder for years.

I bet most do. You're putting to death so many people, yet it never stops. Murderers don't think "Oh, this guy was hanged so I better not murder". It's more like "This guy was hanged, so I better do a better job of hiding my victim's remains". Never underestimate the hubris of a sociopath. Though, sadly, most serial killers aren't even that good at covering up their crimes. They only seem to get away with it, for a while, because the investigators/police are terrible at their jobs; Not believing witnesses, missing evidence, honing in on one suspect and ignoring the obvious guilt of another suspect, losing evidence, etc, etc. Never underestimate the stupidity of an authority figure.
@lokicooper4690 Жыл бұрын
Yes, actually repeatedly killing people, even legally, and even if the prisoner deserved the death, has to do something to you over time. It must have really hit home that he had relatively recently executed Evans for the murder of his wife when he executed Christie, knowing that Christie confessed to being the one who actually killed Beryl. I thoroughly disagree with Pierrepoint's statement that he never saved a life. There is no possible way to know if capital punishment didn't stop someone from killing.

I love the way you tell the stories. Your voice is pleasant to my ears. I sleep with storytelling. You have the perfect pattern to do story telling for sleep. Have you thought about it?

I agree, I also listen to his voice to go to sleep. Much better than a sleeping tablet.

The film 10 Rillington Place, with Richard Attenborough, is an excellent and chilling movie. Highly recommend it. No one can do creepy psychopath like Attenborough (see also 1948's Brighton Rock)!

Is that the one where the woman died and it turned out she was not who everyone thought and they never found out who she really was?

Rest in Peace, Timothy Evans, you were a victim of the British Justice and Court of Law. You were convicted of something you didn’t do. I’m so sorry this happened to you, being pardoned hasn’t entirely justified what you had been through. Rest in peace, lad.

The fact that Christie testified at Evans trial. Makes it even worse. Christie never confessed to killing the child. I suppose he wanted to hold something over the public until the end.

Excellent thanks , I can remember seeing Christie at madam T’ s in the chamber of horrors, back in the 1970’s 😮very scary as i was 8? And seeing the film and tv series, but yours was well researched and presented well done 👏 I always wonder how people lived in that street as every photo I have seen of the street and houses look pretty depressing even for back then !!

I don't understand how people can live with dead people in the walls. It just boggles the imagination. The smell alone would be unbearable. Then you've got your fluids and what not.

There is a film or is it a documentary? Is it titled "10 Rillington Place" or does it have another name? I would like to see it.

Just going to put this out there for the record. I have never seen this channel or any of its videos until just now. And yet within the first few seconds of the video I noticed I’m already subscribed. I can promise I have absolutely no recollection of this channel at all and of the rest of the videos are like this setup then I’m even more confident this is my first video. …..
