A CRIMINOLOGIST from South Lakeland claims to have identified the whereabouts of the last unfound victim of two of the most notorious serial killers in British criminal history.

Ian Brady and Myra Hindley were convicted of murdering five children in Greater Manchester in the 1960s, and burying four of them in the bleak surroundings of Saddleworth Moor, near Oldham.

The crimes shocked the nation and earned the pair the nickname of the Moors murderers.

The remains of three of the children were recovered from the moors, but the body of 12-year-old Keith Bennett was never found, despite a massive police search operation.

However, Paula Badger, who lives at Ings, believes that through careful analysis of maps and photographs of the area, she has solved the mystery of the resting place of the boy.
