Synopsis

BUS-STOP READS ARE SHORT QUICK READS THE MOST HATED WOMAN IN BRITAIN Between 1962 and 1965 Myra Hindley, along with her boyfriend Ian Brady, abducted, brutally abused and murdered five children - Pauline Reade, John Kilbride, Keith Bennett, Lesley Ann Downey and Edward Evans - and buried them in shallow graves on the isolated Saddleworth Moor, in Lancashire, England. Her crimes made her Britain's "most hated woman” as her crimes were deemed so odious and indefensible. Myra Hindley died in prison, on November 15, 2002, after years of trying to obtain parole claiming that she had changed, and felt deep remorse. She was supported in her bid for freedom by many high-profile individuals—who claimed that she had fallen under Brady's spell, and without him she would not have committed the crimes. But the hatred felt for Myra Hindley by the vast majority of the British public ensured that a prison “life sentence “really did mean "life." So who was Myra? And how did an outwardly normal girl, with no obvious evidence of violence in her character, grow up to commit such heinous acts?
