Serial Killers
Series: David Wilson's Crime Files
Synopsis
Leadin criminologist Professor David Wilson examines our obsession with serial killers and offers fresh analysis and insight into the minds of two of Scotland's most infamous; Peter Manuel and Peter Tobin. He discusses whether or not Manuel was criminally insane and if Tobin could be the 1960s serial killer Bible John who was never caught. He talks with crime fiction author Alex Gray and conducts an in-depth interview with flamboyant criminal defence lawyer Donald Findlay QC. Investigative journalist Fiona Walker presents a short film about the sensational 1958 murder trial of Peter Manuel at Glasgow's high court in which he stood accused of murdering eight people. The film focuses on the moment when Manuel sacked his lawyers and took over his own defence. Fiona quotes from rarely heard court transcripts, bringing to life the extraordinary arrogance with which Manuel tried to pin the blame on someone else. Manuel, however, was found guilty and was hanged in Barlinnie Prison.
