Myra Hindley and Ian Brady

Emash Digital / Wondery
About this episode

Myra Hindley and Ian Brady, known as the Moors Murderers, were British child murderers and rapists. Their crimes are some of the most violent and disturbing acts against children ever committed in Britain. They abducted, tortured, beat, sexually abused, and murdered five children. The couple quickly became the most hated people in the country. 

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the couple Hindley and Brady. There is a lot of debate about the extent of Myra's involvement in the murders and sexual assaults. There is also some debate as to whether her involvement was the result of her fear of Ian Brady. But, there is no doubt, that she was complicit in crimes against children and remained in a relationship with a killer.
