on 9th July 1997, on the first anniversary of the attack,  using evidence gleaned from several eyewitnesses in the area and brave Josie's testimony, BBC TV decided to run a Crimewatch reconstruction of the day in a hope of jogging people's memories or getting another lead to point Police in the right direction.

Following that reconstruction  a  Psychiatrist called the police about one of his patients he was worried about, Michael Stone who looked like the e-fit and he told the police  "Stone was in the mood for killing."

In July 1997, police arrested and charged Stone, who was 37 at the time, with the crimes

This is the tragic story of the Russell Family

Dressed in typical 1990’s teenage style of a leopard print blouse, black hipster trousers and a short leather jacket, Nicola an A-Level student who studied at Fairfax School in Sutton Coldfield looked forward to a night out with friends.

The poor young woman with her whole life ahead of her never saw in the New Year of 1997 as her life was tragically taken from her by a sadistic rapist and murderer before the clocks chimed midnight.

Nicola, was attacked in an alley which ran by the Holy Trinity Church, in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, as she took a short cut to meet friends in a town-centre pub. She was sexually assaulted, robbed and bludgeoned to death.

On 4th March 1998, Kirsty Carver a pretty young civilian working with Humberside police spent the evening visiting friends. later that evening  Kirsty was brutally murdered and her body was not found for a month......

Circumstances meant the Police knew something sinister had happened and during the search for her body her former colleagues had many questions as to the circumstances of her disappearance 

was it the police officer boyfriend she had just broken up with? 

did she argue with her friend she had just visited?

was this something to do with her work for the police? 

or was Kirsty just at the wrong place at the wrong time and wandered into the path of a killer?

sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction
