Ian Brady Myra Hindley Moors Murders Another Victim
January 19, 2008
There has been speculation for years now that there were other victims of the Moors Murders one of them being a young hitch hiker….In the last few days there have been reports of Brady’s lawyer claiming that this killing did actually happen . This seems rather odd as he has not asked Brady about it yet and still seems happy to credit him with another murder……
I have remarked before that Brady is out of touch with what’s happening in the real world and this is proof if that is in fact needed.
I don’t know how many drug pusher were released from prison last year or how many deaths they were responsible for but I’m sure there were many …..and their body count no doubt was far greater than Brady’s but Brady is destined to rot in Jail/Prison/Hospital for yet more years…..

I read somewhere awhile back that before her death, Myra had supposedly confessed to a fellow inmate that she and Ian had murdered another young woman; a hitch-hiker they apparently offered a lift to while out driving late one night.
I wasn’t particularly surprised to see that this story had flared up again.
I often read Mr Brady’s lawyer’s blog, and perhaps it’s my imagination…but I get this sense the evidence suggesting there was a sixth victim is being blown rather out of proportion and that things are rushing along without Mr Brady’s input.
I don’t deny that it’s quite possible he and Myra killed more than we know for certain, but this whole thing smacks of sensationalism to me.
His lawyer strikes me as a showman, and though I cannot question his legal skills (I don’t know enough to argue that point intelligently) I would point out that some months ago now he did post on his blog suggesting that he had strong evidence that Myra Hindley was in fact alive and well. If I recall correctly, he thought her to be living in a convent not far from the hospital in which she died…
And I agree…Why do others walk free, yet he has no hope of freedom; no escape. Not even permitted to die.

It is with great relief I find this missing person has been found. If Ian can say that the blonde girl of 17 on a website is also safe that will be so very reassuring too. I will not name the website.
May I say that as I had found this article in the archives when searching for press details I had worried that maybe as psychics said of a girl with cardigan on the Moor said to be near to Keith, that she might be this missing person.
I gave all my research material and archived material to another team of researchers.
It bothered me a lot and I cried a lot. What a can of worms. Missing just four days after Leslie Anne Downey was a terrible coincidence.
Perhaps lucky like one of those who was enticed told me who escaped after declining a lift all those years ago.
I am so very glad Jennifer is alive and well and not a statistic. So very glad that one has ‘come home’ that is in stagnent files of the missing in papers. It is not that they are victims of this killer, it is that they are in archives missing in the locality of these predators. My names in this list if objectionable should be removed by silly old twit as like the 11 perfect murders in the Manchester paper they are records of the time. Please do that for me as to those missing in a list form from the Manchester paper at the time. Just in case of alarm.
Why could we not find Pauline’s last steps before Ian Brady made that confession of the two other victims and his claim that there were others from the mouths of police officers then and of some Ian spoke to of there being more. I hope not.
My prayers are answered in this girl who vanished at the time being found alive, there is a God after all.

Moors ‘victim’ Jennifer is tracked down
SAFE and well . . . Jennifer Tighe
by Richard Hooton
A GIRL who was feared to be the fifth victim of Moors Murderer Myra Hindley has been declared safe and well, 43 years after disappearing.
Linda Calvey, a prison friend of Hindley, claims the killer confessed to another murder — and the details fitted the case of 14-year-old Jennifer Tighe, who disappeared in January, 1965.
But police have managed to track down Jennifer, who is living outside the Greater Manchester area, and spoke to her over the weekend.
It is believed she was found in the 1960s but not all her family knew of the discovery and she was not in touch with surviving relatives.
Greater Manchester Police say it was difficult to check police records from that era, but they managed to trace and visit her.
A niece of former Alderman Arthur Tighe, Jennifer lived in a foster home but went missing while staying with her father, Ben Tighe (73), at Knott Lanes, Bardsley over the holidays.
She had told him she was going to the cinema in Ashton. He died not long after the disappearance.
Jennifer’s second cousin, Louis Beard (61), of Moorside, had been shocked by the possibility of a connection to the infamous child killers and said it was always believed Jennifer had simply run away and not been heard of again.
She said: “We are really thrilled police have found her.”
Giovanni di Stefano, who claims to legally represent both Brady and Calvey, said he had spent four years gathering details on the victim.
The only details he released are that the girl was 14, her initials were JT, and she had been at a children’s home in Oldham.
A GMP spokesman said that despite the fact the claims seemed to be based on speculation, they felt it important to assess their validity because of the concern they had caused.
Mrs Beard criticised Mr di Stefano, saying: “I think he’s really awful to have set all this off. He’s not had proof or anything. Before he made those comments he should have checked his facts.”
Oldham Chronicle.
Perhaps the psychics and ghostbusters on the Moors will stop looking for the girl victims they ‘see’ or are told are on the Moors. There are no more, and that is that.
There are no more Ian. You have got no more to tell of. Or where Keith is, you have not got any information to tell your solicitor. Memory is a flacid thing like an autobiography, an art of editing.
Praise to the fast acting of police for finding this missing person in the files safe and well.
Shame we cannot say that for Winnie Johnson who sits by a silent telephone – is it still cut off, or was it cut off at Christmas?

I just wish people would get there facts right, before they print things. My name is Lois Beard, I did not know this sight existed and found it by complete accident. It just shows what trouble Mr. di Stefano caused and all the time the police had to spend on this just because of him. I must just say the police were very good and kept me informed of everything that went on, till they found Jennifer.

Have you read this thesis about the Moors Murderers and how Hindley was represented in the media? It’s not at all like the usual fare.

It is an old republished edition from 1995 and it does not give the authors qualification as to why the thesis and what biases come to influence it.
However, this is what is written in the abstract as such.
‘Although there is no evidence to suggest that Hindley carried out any of the murders herself, she became the most reviled woman in Britain while Ian Brady’s name was rarely mentioned’.
As a thesis and look at the role of media it is incorrect. Look at the google search engine since the rise of looking on-line and there is Ian Brady more so since her death in the 21st century. More so is he gaunt, haggard and described as evil.
The evidence in who killed whom is in the tapes of Leslie Anne Downey which are said to be chilling and show her evil part in this murder of a ten year old she stalked at a fair and took. There is so far as archives go no evidence in witnesses to say Ian was even there, except the tape he had prepared under the bed in Myra’s house which put her right there in her own lair. It put her on the Moors with a child next door hours before planning the similar gender, age and size of a new victim in the same location of the others. Fact. Photographic and audible fact.
Fact two, she had known Pauline Reide so well. It is still not acknowledged that she did not kill in the first instance from spite and engage the foolish Ian Brady from the bookies. Who knows if she did. Certainly she cannot be in two places at once, and Ian is not going to loose a body count tally is he? Media brought out the mastermind when Eddie was killed and it stayed.
John Kilbride, the market boy. Ian only wrote his name as a doodle yet it was enough to look for him, yet Myra drove and Myra had a routine in her lax and lazy life within this ‘corridor’.
Keith Bennett, again she says she knew him where before she said he chose them all. She sat at the corner of Westmorland Street out of the window gaze of Ian’s mother in fear I would suppose.
The book as a thesis and media study is on how women as a generalization are vilified in child murders. Yet Rose West is in all senses of the word left to go grey in prison without the same fame or notoriety. Her partner in crime committed suicide so the one left is lesser news in gender as biological sex of an individual.
The only way the media uses gender is in sensationalising the woman as in Rita Ellis the last woman hanged for shooting one of her lovers. She entertained a generation at the time of love sick men who found her attractive, daring and most of all shocking in that social circle. It is to that following Myra modelled herself right down the car in the picture in the book and anniversary dates, plus dress in one photo.
The media representations do not take the role making of such identities and their own performance as Hitchcock actors in a silent film with a baited breath audience. Media then and now is changing. Media however is mass marketing of an identity that sells bad news, and dread in such cases. Myra wooed the media in her own way by contacting it directly, going inside the pack as she did with many others who attracted media and debate such as Lord Longford et al.
I will read it only if it is a library as it is too expense for a book on media portrayal that uses radical feminist arguement for the way Myra as the page issue shows is the main focus of why to buy the book.

I dont remember very much from when I was 7/8 but one chilling thing I remember is my mum telling us that although she has always told us to be wary of strange men and if in trouble run to a woman for help we must now know that women can be just as dangerous as men.At that young age I found this hard to believe but since then have realised this was about the time of moors murderers arrests.I lived in Scotland but their heinous crimes touched my life too,and changed the innocent outlook for many of my generation.
