Albert Pierrepoint: John Christie's final murders.
Description
After the death of his wife, Ethel, John Chrsite claimed that “after she had gone, the way was clear for me to fulfil my destiny.”
in the proceeding weeks Christie would go on to commit three murders, but before they were his victims they were Rita Nelson, Kathleen Maloney and Hectorina Mclennan each had her own story which I explore in this episode.
