For Hertfordshire farmer Roger Kingsley, the afternoon of Sunday, March 22nd 2009 was one that he would remember for the rest of his life. Working the fields of his farm, he came across a green 'Gullivers' holdall, the contents of which would begin a complex murder investigation, one that would stretch from Hertfordshire, to the East Midlands.

It seemed someone was making a human jigsaw....

Four days – almost a full working week for the majority. 96 hours, for some, it will fly by, for others, it may feel like the clock may go backwards. Over one such period back in the autumn of 2000, Worcestershire and West Midlands Police found themselves dealing with some of the most brutal, senseless, and horrifying killings that both the force areas, and the UK, has ever seen – all committed by the same person.

This time on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, I bring you the tale of the crimes committed by an individual who was a spree killer – or, who may even have been a serial one…

Satanism, Black Magic, and Devil Worshipping are terms that have been around since the Middle Ages. In the majority of cases today, people who follow this do so somewhat out of boredom, it drawing something in their angry, perhaps somewhat confused selves that they feel may be that edge that they need to express their inner feelings. And in most cases, it will go no further than a dabble with the ideology or symbolism, before they find it’s not really for them, they see the light, and leave it behind. In some cases, they will maintain a lifelong commitment to Satan, but never going further than pronouncing that they follow his teachings.

But in some extreme cases, such as in Germany, in 2001 - the tale I have brought this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast – the odd one or two go that bit further, and prove just how committed to Satan they really are…

The girl, dressed in a pretty pink dress, poses for a photograph sat on the knee of a young man, smartly dressed in a tuxedo. They could be any young couple, but are not, for whilst she smiles broadly, he cannot, through pain, and inability. She then approaches the young man in the tuxedo, and brandishing a knife, proceeds to mutilate his chest with it, carving her initials into him.

She then approaches him with a cellar of salt, and his terrified eyes widen as she pours it into the wound….

Sounds like a bad movie? It is, it’s a scene from a 2009 Australian horror movie called The Loved Ones – except that in 2012, in the English city of Chester, someone thought life should imitate art….

Have you ever had someone you’ve fallen for so much that you would want to do ANYTHING to impress them, to give them the world? How about, pretending to be something, someone that you aren’t then, where you back up the most lavish of stories with a once in a lifetime event? For one 18 year old Merseyside student back in 2004, she was to get this – though in her worst nightmares she couldn’t have imagined exactly how she was to – and the lengths that her suitor had gone to to give it her.
