00:43Number 50, Levi Belfield.
00:46First being convicted for burglary in 1981, he picked up the additional charge of assaulting a police officer in 1990.
00:56By 2002, Belfield had picked up nine convictions, having spent over one year in prison for various offences.
01:04A cunning individual, Belfield was described as having a split personality disorder,
01:09switching from being nice to being nasty almost instantly.
01:13He was found guilty on the 25th of February 2008 of the murders of Marsha MacDonald and Emile Delagrange
01:21and the attempted murder of Kate Sheedy.
01:24Belfield was later found guilty of the Millie Dowler murder and has been handed a further life sentence.
01:31Belfield is currently the only prisoner in history to have received two whole life orders
01:37and serves his term Wakefield Prison, nicknamed Monster Mansion, for the prisoners it holds.
01:45Number 49, Gary Vinter.
01:47Having already been out of prison on licence for the murder of local railway worker Carl Eden,
01:53in August 1995, it was not long before Vinter, also known as Douglas Vinter, turned back to his murderous ways.
02:01On February 10th, 2008, he attacked his wife Anne White in Normanby, Teesside, who later died from her injuries.
02:10Vinter admitted the charges in court two months later and was sentenced to a whole life order, meaning he will die in prison.
02:17In 2012, Vinter attacked child murderer Roy Whiting and was handed a third life sentence in 2016 for the attempted murder of a fellow inmate, Lee Newell, also on a whole life order.
02:31He was one of several prisoners in 2013 to challenge the whole life order sentences, meaning they must now be reviewed every 25 years.
02:40Number 48, David Fuller.
02:44Currently imprisoned at the notorious HNP Franklin Prison in County Durham, England, Fuller was convicted of murdering Wendy Nell and Caroline Pearce in 1987.
02:55Fuller is nicknamed the Morgue Monster after it was revealed he had been working at a hospital mortuary where the abuse of more than 116 women's bodies had taken place.
03:06He was on the run for over 34 years and was only brought to justice thanks to DNA evidence held on file and a review in 2007.
03:16Handed a whole life order on the 15th of December 2021, Fuller has no chance of parole and will likely die in prison.
03:24Number 47, Mark Fellows.
03:27Nicknamed the Iceman, Mark Fellows is an English hitman who often wore military-style fatigues and carried a submachine gun when committing his murders.
03:37He was found guilty of killing Paul Massey outside his home in 2015 and John Nisler in 2018 while he walked with his pregnant partner Wendy Owen.
03:47Fellows' trial lasted eight weeks, with heavily armed officers in attendance alongside fellow criminal and accomplice Stephen Boyle.
03:56Found guilty of the murders of both Massey and Nisler, he was sentenced to a whole life order.
04:02He has been attacked multiple times in prison and was once airlifted to hospital from Whitemore Prison in 2019.
04:09He picked up a further sentence of life with a minimum term of nine years for conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm.
04:15Number 46, Stephen Port.
04:18Responsible for the murder of four men, Port met his victims via online gay and bisexual social networks.
04:25For this very reason, he has earned his nickname as the Grinder Killer and wore a blonde toupee while meeting other men.
04:33He often drugged his victims with GBH before killing them and even tried to pin the previous murders on a victim with a fake suicide note.
04:42Port was charged with four counts of murder, seven charges of rape, four of sexual assault and ten of administering a poison in 2015.
04:50He denied all the charges and was considered too dangerous to move to court, instead appearing via a video link from Britain's most secure prison, HMP Belmarsh.
05:01He was, of course, found guilty on all counts and, having been convicted of crimes against over 11 people, was sentenced to die in prison.
05:09Number 45, Andrew Dawson.
05:11A man described with having an urge to kill, Dawson committed his first killing in the 1980s and was released after serving a life sentence for killing an elderly shopkeeper.
05:22Derby's only convicted serial killer, he was found guilty of killing John David Matthews and Paul Hannock in July 2010.
05:30Still on license for the previous murder, Dawson went on the run after the killings and later called himself the Angel of Mercy.
05:37He attempted to commit suicide by jumping into the sea, but after coming ashore was shot twice with a taser and overpowered by officers, who found him to have a survival kit and seven kitchen knives.
05:50The nickname stuck, and today the Angel of Mercy resides at an unknown location.
05:56Comment below if you know where he is currently incarcerated.
06:00Number 44, David Baxendale.
06:03Nicknamed the Costa Killer, Baxendale had a history of violence stretching back some 20 years.
06:10Convicted of murder in Spain in 2001, he served seven years of an 11-year sentence before being deported back to Britain.
06:17It was not long before Baxendale killed again, and in 2011 he was convicted of repeatedly stabbing a woman in Nutfield, Surrey.
06:26The nickname comes from his murder and attacks on the Costa Blanca, and it appears to have been cemented with his crimes in the UK.
06:33Baxendale is currently imprisoned at an unknown location.
06:36Number 43, John Cooper.
06:39Another criminal well known to police even before his brutal crimes.
06:43Cooper first came to the attention of police when he was charged with ABH, assaulting police, theft and being drunk and disorderly.
06:51After a number of robberies, fights and burning someone's house down, Cooper attacked and killed Peter and Gwenda Dixon during a robbery in 1989.
06:59The couple was systematically killed at point-blank range with a sawn-off shotgun, having provided their bank details and given over £300 in cash.
07:09In 1995, Cooper, who had not been caught, threatened five children with a gun and attacked two of them, and by 1998 he had committed over 30 burglaries.
07:20He appeared on the British TV game show Bullseye, and this appearance later proved to be his downfall after a sketch made from a witness's descriptions was used to identify him.
07:31Now convicted of four murders, one rape, 30 burglaries and one attempted robbery, he was nicknamed the Bullseye Killer, and was later diagnosed as a psychopath.
07:41He has been linked to other murders, including the deaths of Flo Evans, Harry and Megan Tooze, and Griff and Patchy Thomas.
07:49Number 42, John Sweeney.
07:52Convicted of murdering two women whose bodies were found mutilated and dumped in canals in London and the Netherlands, John Sweeney has been nicknamed the Canal Killer.
08:00He often created paintings that included clues to his numerous murderous ways, and spent years on the run while murdering his former girlfriends.
08:09He was finally tracked down near Liverpool, and has been described as one of the most dangerous people to ever stand trial at the Old Bailey.
08:17His murders include that of Melissa Halstead, a 33-year-old American model turned photographer, the attempted murder of Delia Balmer, and the murder of Paula Fields.
08:27Sweeney refused to leave his prison cell at Belmarsh Prison to hear his sentence, and that is today where he resides.
08:35Number 41, Stephen Griffiths.
08:38One of the most infamous killers in British history, Stephen Griffiths, a.k.a. the crossbow cannibal, was convicted of killing three women in Bradford, West Yorkshire.
08:47Having used a crossbow to commit one murder, he later used the nickname as his real name during pre-trial hearings.
08:54On the 21st of December 2010, Griffiths was convicted of all three murders after pleading guilty, and while in prison, he has attempted suicide on numerous occasions.
09:06In 2011, he went on a 120-day hunger strike, during which time he avoided all contact with other people.
09:13He has since been linked to several other disappearances and murders, including that of Rebecca Hall in 2001, and Dawn Shields in 1994.
09:22Number 40, Anthony Hardy.
09:25Known as the Camden Ripper, for dismembering some of his victims in a killing spree that gripped London, Anthony Hardy is thought to have murdered up to eight people.
09:34He was arrested in 1998 when a prostitute accused him of attacking her, and was later arrested for criminal damage.
09:41He became both an alcoholic and diabetic, and was originally thought to have got away with his first murder, after the deceased was wrongly diagnosed with having a heart attack in his flat.
09:51In 2002, the bodies of Bridget, McLennan, 34, and Elizabeth Vallad, were found by a homeless man in London, and Hardy was arrested after a complex investigation pinned him to the crimes.
10:04Hardy was diagnosed with a personality disorder, and found guilty of both murders, and later also being found guilty of the woman whose death he had originally been put down to natural causes.
10:14Links to other murders have been investigated by police, including that of Zoe Parker, who died in the same circumstances as Hardy's other victims.
10:24Number 39, John Madden.
10:26Convicted in 2010 of killing his 12-year-old niece, police revealed that she had been drugged with olanzapine before the brutal murder.
10:35Madden, who had lured her to his home in order to babysit his 10-year-old daughter, he later telephoned an ambulance and confessed to the murder showing no emotion.
10:44Due to the disturbing nature of the murder, Madden was sentenced to a whole-life term, with the judge basing the sentence on the planned premeditation of the killing and the agony of the victim.
10:56Number 38, Mark Chivers.
10:58Previously serving 15 years in prison in Germany for murdering an ex-girlfriend, Chivers was deported back to the UK in January 2008.
11:06He had a string of previous convictions for some extreme cases of violent behaviour in the past, and it was not long before he killed again.
11:14Chivers strangled his ex-girlfriend Maria Stubbins with a dog lead in December 2008, only months after returning to the UK, and pleaded guilty to the crime 12 months later.
11:25Number 37, Simon Wilson.
11:27Another foreign national who was deported back to Britain from Australia, where he lived for most of his life, he committed murder and rape and served 16 years.
11:37After returning to the UK, he once again began a crime spree, and was charged with GBH, sexual assault, and attempted rape after attacking a 71-year-old victim.
11:48Due to the nature of his previous crimes, and the seriousness of the latter, Wilson was deemed too dangerous to ever be released.
11:55Number 36, Michael Adeballajo.
11:58Convicted in a killing that was covered greatly by the British media, Adeballajo was already well known to the British security services.
12:05He attacked and killed 25-year-old Lee James Rigby, a drummer and machine gunner in the 2nd Battalion of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers on a busy London street in broad daylight.
12:18Adeballajo was carrying a fake revolver and meat cleaver, was filmed confessing to the murder in the name of Islam, and was later arrested for pointing a gun at armed officers who shot him.
12:30He was convicted alongside his accomplice, and has since tried to appeal his whole life order several times without success.
12:37The Lee Rigby Foundation was established by Lynn and Ian Rigby after their son's murder, and was set up to support networks for bereaved military families.
12:47Number 35, Joanne Christine Dennehy.
12:50Famous for being one of the only women to receive a whole life order in the UK, Dennehy was described by the sentencing judge as a cruel, calculating, selfish, and manipulative.
13:00Serial killer.
13:02Described as a self-confessed man-killer, she murdered three men for the purpose of entertainment, and stated that she had wanted to kill at least nine men before going out like Bonnie and Clyde.
13:13Two other men were stabbed, but survived, and this led to the arrest and conviction of Dennehy, and two other men who were not convicted of the murder, but also attempted murder and various other crimes.
13:24It was later revealed that Dennehy was being supervised at the time of the murders by the probation services, having been convicted of both assault and owning a dangerous dog.
13:33She tried to plan an escape before her trial, and the diary, which contained her plans, revealed the planned killing of a prison officer to bypass prison biometric security procedures.
13:44Number 34, Paul O'Hara.
13:47Described by police as a predatory, violent individual, O'Hara admitted to murdering his girlfriend, Shirley Shannon, while she was giving evidence to police in her own home.
13:57Having told the officers about the abuse she had suffered, O'Hara suddenly burst through the front door, attacking both officers with a hammer and chasing Shannon into the street.
14:07She was stabbed outside and later died of her injuries, with O'Hara being tasered on multiple occasions before he was finally arrested.
14:14O'Hara had previously been sentenced to life in 1998 for murdering his previous girlfriend, Janine Waterworth, in very similar circumstances, and had only been released on licence in 2013.
14:27Number 33, Ryan Matthews.
14:30Having left Broadmoor Secure Hospital in 1999 under the Mental Health Act, his mental health had deteriorated throughout stays in various hospitals following his release.
14:41Matthews had originally been jailed for life after being convicted in 1983 under the name Stephen Cecil King of two other murders and a count of conspiracy to murder.
14:50He went on to murder healthcare assistant Shannon Wall at Wooten Hill Hospital in Gloucester on the 9th of July 2014, and as a result, he was told he would die in prison.
15:00Number 32, David Mitchell.
15:02Previously serving 23 years of a life sentence for the murder of his girlfriend in 1990, he was released only four months before committing his second murder.
15:11Mitchell was drinking with his lover, convicted sex offender Robert Hynde, before he attacked him in a drunken rage, killing him in the process.
15:21The body was found by a canal, and had been dismembered with Mitchell trying to hide the evidence of his involvement.
15:27Number 31, Jason Gomez.
15:30While serving life in prison for a previous murder committed in 2001, when he stabbed his business partner Robert Jones to death, Jason Gomez and fellow prisoner Paul Wadkin murdered again.
15:42They lured fellow prisoner Darren Flynn into a cell at HMP Swaleside, and then stabbed him over 190 times with a thin black handle and a knife wrapped in material.
15:53After having a whole life order imposed, Gomez was quoted as saying that he thought admitting to the murder would avoid this.
16:00He has had multiple appeals turned down.
16:02Number 30, Ian Burley.
16:05In 1996, Burley had been convicted of the murder of 69-year-old Maurice Hoyle in his house in Barnsley, and served 18 years of a life sentence before being released on license.
16:16Almost a year after his release, Burley and his then-girlfriend Helen Nichols followed 65-year-old John Gogarty to his home in Wambel, South Yorkshire, before demanding his pin and stabbing him 69 times.
16:31Helen Nichols was told she must serve a minimum of 20 years for her part in the murder.
16:36Burley, having his second murder conviction, will die in prison.
16:40Number 29, Russell Oliver.
16:43Another prisoner, who was jailed for life in 2013 for beating a man to death, later attacked John York in his cell at high-security HMP Long Lartin.
16:53Mr Justice Haddon Cave handed Oliver a whole life sentence at Birmingham Crown Court on Thursday the 24th of March 2016.
17:02Number 28, Christopher Halliwell.
17:04Originally pleading guilty to the murder of Sian O'Callaghan, who he had picked up outside a nightclub in Swindon in March 2011 before stabbing her to death, Halliwell confessed to another killing several years later.
17:17He led police to the remains of both victims, but due to the police denying him access to a solicitor and failing to caution him, he could not be charged.
17:25New evidence later emerged in the case and Wiltshire police were finally able to charge him with both murders.
17:30He was later described by the sentencing judge as a calculating and devious individual, and police are now investigating further murders he may have committed.
17:40Number 27, Stephen Wright.
17:42One of Suffolk's most prolific serial killers, Stephen Wright has been nicknamed the Suffolk Strangler.
17:49Wright was a known user of prostitutes and frequented brothels and massage parlours in an area where he lived.
17:56Wright murdered five prostitutes in Ipswich between the 30th of October and the 10th of December 2006, before forensic evidence led police to his Ford Mondeo.
18:06Wright was found guilty of all five murders on the 21st of February 2008 at Ipswich Crown Court the following day and handed his whole life order.
18:15Other murders have now been linked to Wright, including three women in Norwich, one in Ipswich and the Susie Lampler murder case in 1986.
18:23Overall, it is thought as many as 13 women may have been killed by Wright over a 35-year crime spree, but many have never been proven.
18:34Number 26, Michael Smith.
18:36Previously convicted of murdering his 18-year-old girlfriend, Sheila Deakin, in 1975, Smith spent 30 years in prison for the offence before being released on licence.
18:47The 30 years in prison did nothing to correct Smith's behaviour, and he later murdered 35-year-old Peter Summers in an attack with a bottle in Stoke-on-Trent in August 2006.
18:59Smith had only been released on parole 12 months before he went on to murder Summers, and was later handed a whole life order for that killing.
19:06Number 25, David Tilly.
19:08Two months after he was released from prison for a double rape, Tilly stabbed to death his disabled fiancée Susan Hale, who suffered from a degenerative brain disorder.
19:19He then killed her carer, Sarah Merritt, when she arrived at their home in Southampton to check on her before he fled the scene on a train to Weymouth.
19:28He was arrested in Swanage and charged with double murder, later admitting both murders at his trial at Winchester Crown Court.
19:35The trial judge told him that the brutality and evil of what you did defies adequate description, and the only appropriate order in this case is that there should be a whole life order.
19:46Number 24, Andrew Randall.
19:49Convicted child killer Andrew Randall told arresting officers he had resented his seven-week-old daughter Jessica Randall since she'd been born.
19:58While the details of the murder cannot be revealed in this video, the trial judge described it as an extremely disturbing case, with abuse going back to the time his daughter was born.
20:08Concerns about Jessica's welfare by doctors and staff on the maternity ward, visits by social services, along with an investigation into her care, failed to save her life.
20:18Randall, who will never be freed, was attacked in prison on several occasions, with one attack blinding him permanently in one eye.
20:25Number 23, Rahan Arshad.
20:29Reported to be motivated by jealousy after discovering his wife was having an affair, Arshad, a taxi driver, took it upon himself to seek revenge.
20:38He attacked his wife while she was in her bedroom, killing her, and then went on to murder all three of his own children.
20:44He fled to Thailand, but was later returned and arrested at London's Heathrow Airport as he stepped off the flight.
20:50Described as a calculating cold-blooded murderer in court, he had refused to answer police questions, and later told police his wife had committed the crimes before he killed her.
21:02Number 22, Stephen McCall.
21:05Once working as an informer for Greater Manchester Police, McCall was a well-known underworld figure in Manchester.
21:12One of the gang members caught on about his secret lifestyle, and he murdered Michael Doran for finding out.
21:19He later killed a second man after he found out about the same life, and McCall was convicted of both murders in August 2006.
21:27It's understood that he is now suspected of killing another man, a firefighter in Glasgow.
21:33Number 21, Dale Cregan.
21:36Having pled guilty to two separate killings of two members of the same family earlier in 2012, Cregan was wanted by the police for the murders of Mark Short and David Short.
21:45Cregan murdered police constables Nicola Hughes and Fiona Bone, two Greater Manchester Police officers, in a gun and grenade attack on the 18th of September 2012.
21:56The killings became national news, and Cregan, who was already on the run from police, walked into a police station in Hyde an hour after Hughes and Bone were killed.
22:06Known as One Eye due to his missing left eye, it is believed to have been carved out with a knife under circumstances unknown.
22:15Charged with the murders of Hughes, Bone and the Shorts, and the attempted murder of four other people, he was found guilty on all counts.
22:22The deaths of Fiona Bone and Nicola Hughes were the first times that hand grenades had been used as a murder weapon in the UK.
22:28It's been reported that he went on hunger strike in HMP Full Sutton, a scheme that landed him in Ashworth Hospital, with access to more privileges, including snooker and tennis.
22:40He was later returned to prison, bragging about the experience.
22:44Number 20, Victor Dembovskis.
22:48Revealed to have a string of convictions in Latvia stretching back 25 years, including two rapes in the 1990s,
22:55Dembovskis was deported from Latvia after a joint operation by British and Latvian police.
23:02He was accused of the rape and murder of a 17-year-old female neighbour as she walked home from school in West London.
23:09He fled the country after the murder, but upon his forced return, he was handed a whole-life order due to his previous crimes,
23:17something that is exceptionally rare for a single murder.
23:20Number 19, Kenneth Reagan.
23:22Accused of being involved in the murder of millionaire Amajit Kohan, as well as Kohan's wife, mother-in-law and two sons,
23:30the victims have never been found.
23:33Reagan was a former drug dealer who turned to being a police supergrass to gain himself early release from prison for a prior crime.
23:41It was revealed that he committed the murders to take over the Kohan family freight business to ship drugs into the UK.
23:48The case gained him notoriety in 2005, and he was heavily covered in the British media.
23:55Number 18, John McGrady.
23:58After murdering his 15-year-old neighbour Rochelle Holness in Catford, London in September 2005,
24:06McGrady confessed to his girlfriend before attempting to commit suicide.
24:10He made a considerable effort to make the investigation into the murder difficult,
24:16and he had many previous convictions for assaulting and kidnapping women.
24:20He appealed the sentence in January 2007, but this was rejected by the Court of Appeal.
24:26Number 17, Mark Hobson.
24:28One of the more dangerous people currently held on a whole-life order,
24:33Hobson has a number of convictions, including wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm
24:38and failing to comply with bail conditions.
24:42This, however, was just the beginning of his killer spree,
24:45with him murdering his then-girlfriend Claire Sanderson in July 2004.
24:51After this, he lured her sister to the same house and killed her in almost exactly the same way before going to sleep.
24:57The next day, he travelled to York and murdered James and Joan Britton,
25:01an elderly couple at their home, apparently completely at random.
25:06He triggered a national manhunt and was arrested a week later on the outskirts of the city,
25:11later admitting all four murders.
25:13It was revealed in 2002 he had attempted to kill a love rival in broad daylight,
25:19but was only given a community punishment order.
25:22Number 16, Mark Martin.
25:25Nicknamed the Saint and Strangler,
25:28Martin had the ambitions of gaining fame and notoriety by becoming Nottingham's first serial killer.
25:34He first attacked and killed 25-year-old Ellen Firth,
25:38a homeless woman who was simply eating an apple,
25:41then tried to cover up his crimes by burning down the building where the murder was committed.
25:46It failed, and a few days later Martin rang the police and taunted them for not catching him.
25:51After he was caught, police discovered that he was responsible for two more homeless murders,
25:56that of Katie Baxter and Zoe Pennick.
25:58His accomplices were sentenced to 25-year terms for helping with the murders,
26:02but Martin, the ringleader, will never be released.
26:06Number 15, Thomas McDowell.
26:08Suffering from a personality disorder, McDowell met 37-year-old trainee rabbi,
26:13gifted linguist and German national Andres Hinz at a bar in Camden, London.
26:20Within minutes of Hinz returning to McDowell's flat, he was under attack,
26:24with McDowell throttling him to death.
26:26Hinz was disposed of in the outside bins,
26:29but McDowell had not counted on the extreme summer heat,
26:32which led to the quick discovery of the corpse.
26:35He was soon arrested and confessed to manslaughter,
26:38however the jury saw right through his lies and he was convicted.
26:42Although it was a first murder conviction,
26:44the judge had doubts about whether he could ever safely be released,
26:48and ruled he must spend his final days at Rampton High Security Hospital.
26:53Number 14, Philip Haggerty.
26:55After attending a party with his friend Derek Bennett,
26:58both went back to Haggerty's flat in Swansea.
27:01There, after Bennett had passed out, Haggerty attacked him,
27:05however no murder weapon was ever discovered.
27:08It was later revealed that Bennett was carrying up to £3,000 in cash,
27:12and a further £10,000 in contraband,
27:14with greed later seen as the motive.
27:17He had placed Bennett inside his own car,
27:20wrapped in a rug from his own flat,
27:22and set the car on fire.
27:23Haggerty had previous convictions for attempted murder,
27:26and had several violent robberies,
27:29in which he targeted elderly people.
27:31The whole life order was later imposed,
27:34appealed,
27:34and then the appeal was dismissed.
27:37Number 13, Paul Glenn.
27:39Employed as a hitman by persons unknown,
27:42his first victim was to be Vincent Smart in 2004,
27:46but unfortunately he got the wrong man,
27:48killing Smart's friend Robert Bogle instead.
27:51After his trial,
27:52it was revealed that Glenn had a previous conviction for murder,
27:56having killed hotelier Yvonne Usher in February 1989,
28:00and served 13 years of his original life sentence,
28:03before being paroled in 2002.
28:06Bogle was killed just two years,
28:08after Glenn was released from prison.
28:10Number 12, Jeremy Wing.
28:12One of two people sentenced at the time,
28:15Wing's partner in crime, Brian Hogg,
28:17died in prison sometime in 2015.
28:19They had met in prison,
28:21and after being convicted of hideous crimes against multiple children,
28:24that were so severe the victims would have had psychological and physical injuries for the rest of their lives.
28:31Both men received whole life orders at Maidstone Crown Court in 2002.
28:36A very rare sentence for a crime other than murder,
28:39but wholly justified given the severe nature of the crimes in the ages of the victims.
28:44Number 11, Peter Moore.
28:46Nicknamed the Man in Black,
28:48Moore confessed to police that a fictional lover Jason had killed four men in cold blood.
28:53The attacks were later reported as sexually motivated,
28:57and in 1997,
28:59the sentencing judge recommended that the then Home Secretary,
29:03Amber Rudd,
29:04impose a whole life order,
29:06the only person who could do this at the time.
29:08He was later revealed to be one of three prisoners challenging the legality of the order before the European Court of Human Rights.
29:16Number 10,
29:17Rosemary West.
29:19Notorious across Britain for her heinous crimes,
29:22mainly committed against children with then-partner Fred Rest,
29:25she was convicted in November 1995 of the murder of ten women and girls at her home in Gloucester.
29:32The murders included one of her daughters and stepdaughters,
29:35with many of the murders involving torture and kidnapping,
29:38plus other things far too disturbing to mention here.
29:41The trial judge called her crimes appalling and depraved,
29:44and this, at the time,
29:46was only the second instance of a whole life UK terrorist imposed on a woman in modern times,
29:52the first being serial killer Myra Hindley.
29:55Number 9,
29:56Malcolm Green.
29:57Jailed for life in 1971 for the brutal murder of Cardiff prostitute,
30:02Green spent 18 years in prison before being released on parole in 1989.
30:07It was not long before he bludgeoned to death a young tourist from New Zealand,
30:11dismembered the body and dumped it on a road in South Wales.
30:14He was sentenced to life again in October 1991,
30:18with the recommendation that he should serve a minimum of 25 years,
30:21but was given a whole life tariff by Home Secretary Kenneth Baker.
30:26Number 8,
30:27Mark Robinson.
30:28After murdering his then-girlfriend, Patricia Wagner,
30:32when she threatened to tell his mother about an affair the two were having,
30:36he was jailed for life.
30:37He was released in 1989,
30:39later meeting Sharon Morley in Wakefield,
30:42with the two moving to Billingham shortly afterwards.
30:45However, Sharon,
30:46who decided she wanted to move back to Wakefield,
30:49caused arguments with Robinson.
30:51He discovered a photograph of her former boyfriend,
30:53and in an argument that followed, beat and stabbed her to death.
30:57Again sentenced to life imprisonment at his trial,
31:00he was later issued with a whole life tariff,
31:02thanks to Home Secretary Douglas Hurd.
31:04Number 7,
31:05Anthony Arkwright.
31:07Currently thought to be the youngest offender issued with a whole life order,
31:11Arkwright went on a two-day killing spree in South Yorkshire,
31:14during August 1998,
31:16when aged 21.
31:18Arkwright was arrested after he hacked and battered to death three people,
31:22including his elderly grandfather.
31:25He was also suspected of committing a fourth murder,
31:27around the same time as the others,
31:29but this has never been charged.
31:32Number 6,
31:33John Duffy.
31:34Nicknamed the railway killer,
31:36he attacked numerous women in the south of England,
31:39raping all of them and murdering three,
31:41before revolutionary psychological profiling helped police to catch him.
31:45He was initially sentenced to life with a recommendation of 30 years minimum sentence,
31:50for two murders and seven rapes,
31:52which could have seen him paroled in 2018,
31:55but government interventions saw this upgraded.
31:58Duffy went on a conscience-clearing exercise,
32:01admitting to a third killing,
32:03of which he had been originally acquitted,
32:05receiving a further 12 years.
32:08He named David Mulcahy as his accomplice in the exercise,
32:12and gave evidence against him,
32:14with Mulcahy receiving only life imprisonment.
32:17Number 5,
32:18Victor Miller.
32:19Confessing to killing a 14-year-old boy from Hagley in Worcestershire in February 1998,
32:25after being arrested for an unrelated crime,
32:27Miller soon led detectives to the body.
32:30Miller was also responsible for almost 30 unsolved sexual assaults,
32:34and in court he openly admitted to the murder,
32:37asking for the maximum possible sentence.
32:39He was sentenced to 25 years,
32:41but has since asked never to be released,
32:43with the trial judge in agreement that he poses too great a risk to ever be free.
32:48Number 4,
32:49Jeremy Barmba.
32:51Currently still protesting his innocence,
32:53Jeremy Barmba was convicted of shooting dead his adoptive parents,
32:56sister,
32:57and 6-year-old twin nephews,
32:59at the family house in Essex.
33:01He was revealed to have planted evidence to try and frame his sister,
33:05a known schizophrenic,
33:06to look like she had killed herself in a murder-suicide.
33:09It was revealed that the motive for the killing stemmed from the claiming of a six-figure inheritance,
33:15and in 2002 he was told that he would never be released.
33:19Number 3,
33:20Arthur Hutchinson.
33:20While on the run from police in 1938,
33:24Hutchinson gatecrashed a wedding,
33:26and murdered the bride's father,
33:27mother,
33:28and brother,
33:28before raping her sister at knifepoint.
33:31He was caught after a bloody fingerprint was found on a bottle of champagne,
33:36and a bite mark in a piece of cheese.
33:38Already on the run for a charge of violent rape,
33:40he had previous convictions for offences of violence,
33:44indecent assault,
33:45and dishonesty.
33:46Convicted in 1984,
33:47and sentenced to life imprisonment with a recommendation of 18 years,
33:52Home Secretary Leon Britton intervened and imposed a whole-life order.
33:57Number 2,
33:58John Childs.
33:59Originally joining the British Army as a sapper,
34:02Childs was expelled after nine months of committing burglary.
34:06Childs had been jailed for stealing motorbikes before he was released in 1972,
34:10and was married with two daughters before his high crimes began.
34:14Convicted of the murder of six people in contract killings,
34:17which were committed between 1974 and 1978,
34:21Childs confessed to a journalist in 1998 of five more murders while in prison.
34:27His wife later divorced him after the conviction,
34:30and two people implicated in the murders by Childs were released on appeal in 2003.
34:36Two judges ruled that Childs' evidence against them were unreliable,
34:39because he was a pathological liar.
34:41A forensic psychiatrist,
34:43David Summeh,
34:44concluded that Childs had a personality disorder that led him to compulsively lie,
34:50and the original trial jury were blocked from being told this.
34:54Number 1,
34:55Robert Maudsley.
34:56Considered to be the most dangerous criminal held in a British prison today,
35:00English serial killer Maudsley has been given the hideous nicknames Hannibal the Cannibal and the Brain Eater.
35:07Maudsley was subjected to routine physical abuse by his parents for years,
35:13until he was eventually removed from their care by social services.
35:17After seeking psychiatric help for several suicide attempts thanks to a prolific drug addiction,
35:22he claimed to hear voices telling him to kill his parents.
35:26Maudsley's killing began in 1974,
35:29when he garroted John Farrell in wood green after picking him up and finding out he was a child molester.
35:35Maudsley surrendered himself to police saying he needed psychiatric care,
35:40was found unfit to stand trial and was sent to Broadmoor Hospital.
35:44While in Broadmoor,
35:45he teamed up with fellow inmate David Cheeseman,
35:48also a convicted murderer,
35:50and locked themselves in a cell with a third patient named David Francis.
35:55After nine hours of torture and the death of Francis,
35:58Maudsley was convicted of manslaughter and sent to Wakefield Prison.
36:01He disliked the transfer and in 1978 killed two more inmates during one afternoon,
36:07originally having set out to kill seven and later told the wing office they would be too short at roll call.
36:14Now deemed too dangerous for a normal cell,
36:17the prison built a custom-made two-cell unit in the basement of Wakefield Prison.
36:21The cells are slightly larger than average and have large bulletproof windows
36:27through which Maudsley can be observed at all times as he is on constant suicide watch.
36:33The only furnishings in the cell are a table and chair,
36:36both made of compressed cardboard.
36:38The lavatory and basin are bolted to the floor while the bed is a concrete slab.
36:43Encased in thick transparent acrylic panels,
36:46a solid steel door opens into a small cage within the cell
36:51with a small slot at the bottom through which officers pass him food and other items.
36:56During his daily hour of exercise,
36:58he is escorted to the yard by six prison officers
37:01and he is not allowed contact with any other inmates.
37:05He tried to appeal the terms of his confinement at the turn of the millennium
37:09and even asked for a pet budgerigar.
37:12Both requests were denied.
