Viewer discretion is advised. Some may find this content disturbing. This is a documentary I found interesting.
1. The Rhonda Kay story
A husband who killed his wife after she found him in bed with their lodger, was arrested 8 years later after police bugged his home and was jailed for 6 years.
The body of Rhonda Kay has never been found. Detectives believe she was killed and dumped in a Cotswold water park after a violent row with her husband, Nicholas, who had been carrying on an affair under her nose.
A conversation followed, picked up by listening devices installed when the couple were on holiday, provided the basis for a prosecution of Kay, from Wash Water, near Newbury, Berks.
2. The Lisa Blunt story
A man who made an emotional appeal on television about his missing girlfriend has been jailed for 8 years for killing her. Factory worker Vincent Shilton, 30, reported mother-of-four Lisa Blunt, 23, missing on 22 December 1998. He told them she had failed to return after shopping for Christmas presents for her children.
But Nottingham Crown Court heard that he had wrapped her body in carpet, soaked it in petrol and set it on fire in a nearby wood on the same day.
Shilton later admitted hitting Lisa about 10 times during a row when they were both drunk.
3. The Robert Wignall story
On 5 September 1993, Sandra Wignall, 48, led her husband into Sayes Wood, Addlestone, on the pretext of feeding foxes. She then distracted him with sex, allowing her lover, Terence Bewley, 43, and a friend, Harold Moult, 42, to creep up and stab and batter him to death.
Timothy Langdale QC, for the prosecution, said Mr Wignall's murder was a crime of lust and greed. Mrs Wignall was obsessed with Bewley and stood to gain £21,000 from her husband's life insurance policy, taken out previously.
Mrs Wignall had always maintained that three youths had pounced on her husband in an unprovoked attack.
Bewley insisted that he was never in the woods and had nothing to do with the attack. Moult initially denied involvement, but after being charged with murder, confessed that he and Bewley had carried out the attack.
4. The Terry Daddow story
A former hairdresser was convicted on April 7th 1993 of hiring a contract killer to shoot her husband on the doorstep of their home. Jean Daddow, 53, hired Robert Bell, 33, an ex-soldier, to carry out the killing in Northiam, East Sussex, in November 1991.
Mr Daddow, 52, a former Lloyds Bank adviser, died instantly after Bell shot him through the heart from point-blank range while Mrs Daddow waited upstairs.
Bell, of Headcorn, Kent, was convicted of murder and conspiracy to murder. He denied both charges. Mrs Daddow and her son had grown to hate Terry Daddow and decided to recruit Bell to get rid of him.
Mrs Daddow had considered divorce but had been worried about the financial implications.
