Bodies in the Walls and Under The Floorboards - The Horrors of 10 Rillington Place

When Timothy Evans met John Reginald Christie his fate, like many others, was sealed. However, while Christie would be revealed to be a serial killer, his involvement in the Evans' death was less direct.
His crimes at 10 Rillington Place, Notting Hill, live on in infamy. So heinous were his acts that years later the entire street would be razed to the ground.
Today we explore this case and the lives he tragically cut short.

The 1970 film 10 Rilington Place is well worth watching: it has Richard Attenborough as Christie and John Hurt as Evans. The latter's role as the pathetic Evans is extraordinary and heartbreaking.

[@Thefan]

The modern BBC version with Tim Roth as Christie was also really good, if you get chance to watch that

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

I think Evans mental age was preyed on by the police and it was easy for them to coerce him any way they wanted.

[@nefariousdevile]

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... Very sad and creepy story, but well told as always

[@bogusmogus9551]

I wonder how many Christie murdered during the war

[@nefariousdevile]

​​@@bogusmogus9551very true and I wouldn't be surprised if he did, but sadly it is very hard to prove because of the death that happens on a daily basis during war, it's hard for them to get enough evidence to separate the ones killed by war and the others who could have been killed through, it's horrible to say, but more self-satisfactory murders

I think Beryl’s brother is completely in denial - it’s clear as a polar summer day Robert Evans’ confession was fake and coerced through violence and John Christie was the one who kill3d both Beryl and Geraldine - because otherwise Peter would have to admit (to himself first) he has made a terrible mistake.

[@cheryllochhead4714]

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 agree that it's a good movie.

[@almanook3005]

John Hurt was excellent in so many roles. In this one he was very charismatic, indeed. What made me so very sad is the abject poverty lived by so many citizens. No wonder so many turned to crime including prostitution. Whitechapel is another case; and the stories by Charles Dickens. Thanks to modern videos we are getting quite educated about reasons behind criminal behavior. And we are very well informed that the majority did not turn to crime.

This was a very disturbing story. Having seen the movie 10 Rillington Place which terrified me, your retelling in such a clear and unemotional voice was greatly appreciated. Thank you.

After 10 Rillington Place was demolished, there was a makeshift memorial, right next to the Westway flyover, which strides across the site. My aunt pointed out to me in the mid-70s, a large crucifix mounted onto the gabled end of what remained of Rillington Place. That has also gone now, but her retelling of the story really gave me the creeps at the time.

Lord Denning argued at length against a posthumous pardon for Evans, as to do so would "Undermine confidence in the Judicial system".

[@CartoonHero1986]

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!"

[@beck86]

It reminds me of the John Wayne Gacey case. He was so influential and had so many powerful connections that nobody even thought to suspect him and some people still don't believe he committed some of the murders he did.

[@Elora445]

@@beck86 Sadly, in Gacy's case, that's understandable. They identified many of the bodies by dental records. One family buried what they thought was their son. A number of years later, they did DNA tests on some of the unknowns...and found the family's son. The body they buried definitely did not belong to their son. 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. If one doubts for any other reason, though, that's something else. He was one horrible human who did so many horrible things.

What happened to Tim and his young family has always really moved me. Tim was obviously not perfect, but they were all thoroughly taken advantage of.

To have Beryl’s brother convinced that he didn’t murder his sister, despite evidence and a confession - wow.

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. And a man who was innocent of murder even if he wasn’t the best husband. As for the executioner it has been written that most executioners tend to stop believing in them later in life.

[@mimsydreams]

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]

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.

Funnily enough i recently watched snd much enjoyed Tim Roths depicting Christy, the whole sorry tale was extremely sad and represented a time that will never be seen again an Samantha mortons take Ethel was riveting, but one of the saddest aspects was poor Evans blamed an hanged for a crime he didn't commit, rest in peace 😔🙏❤️

The film 10 Rillington Place was filmed on the real street and the exterior shots are of the actual house, for both the house and street were still standing, when the film was made.Shortly after the films release the street was demolished and built over.

Poor Timothy Evans! Christie was responsible for his murder, too.

Interesting, engaging and sensitively covered as always.

One of your more gripping tales of woe, my God man. It's a wonder they hadn't turned the soil with salt after the demolition and just left it. Then again, London real-estate values... I can only imagine odd goings-on at the new property built in its place. Ever consider doing a follow-up on paranormal activities?? Thank you sir, that was both tragic and spooky..
