About this deal

The murder hunt was launched after the grisly discovery of a torso in Rogerstone, followed a few days later by a head and limbs in St Brides Wentlooge – in the marshlands between Cardiff and Newport. Elsie Hughes, 90, was found in a pool of blood at her home on Hawarden Road, Abermorddu, near Wrexham in September 2005. Earlier that evening Mr Watson, who lived alone, had been seen drinking in the Pen-y-Bryn Hotel in Llanrwst. But the killer was not found, and in 2009 it was announced that the investigation would cease unless new evidence was submitted. A 2002 review revealed new information when police took down walls inside the adult store to take DNA samples and re-interviewed some of the 200 male members of the “blue movie club”.

Sadistic killer Clive Sharp entered a house in the middle of the night and raped Irish vet Catherine Gowing, 37, in New Brighton, Mold. The matter was subsequently referred to the Lord Chief Justice, then Lord Lane, who commented: “I doubt if he should ever be released. Certainly 18 years should be the absolute minimum.” Her heart had been removed, wrapped in newspaper, and placed in a saucepan on a silver platter next to her body. That case collapsed over fears that documents had been lost. They were eventually found in a storage unit but by that time legal proceedings had been halted.

Ruth Ellis was originally from Rhyl but had befriended ex-public schoolboy and motor racing enthusiast David Blakely. Like Ellis the 25-year-old was a heavy drinker and had other women. Mrs Dawson was murdered as she lay in bed and the killer laid in wait for the others to return home. The recommendation was that the double killer, from Ely, Cardiff, should serve a minimum of 25 years for the murder of New Zealander Clive Tully – whose torso, head and limbs were found in bags. But Green was given a whole life tariff by the then Home Secretary. In April 2015 a BBC Crimewatch reconstruction of the widow’s death led to renewed calls for information.
