Crimes That Shook Britain (Glasgow)
Tumblr media
Peter Manuel In 1946, aged just 16, Peter Manuel was jailed for a string of sexual attacks. After his release in the mid-1950s, he became the country's worst serial killer. In January 1956, he stalked Anne Kneilands, 17, at an East Kilbridge golf course, raping and bludgeoning her to death.
That September, he shot Marion Watt, 45, and her daughter Vivienne, 17, as well as Marion's sister Margaret Brown, 41, in their Glasgow home. And Manuel's killing spree continued. In December 1957, Manuel shot taxi driver Sydney Dunn, 36 - and, later that month, Isabelle Cooke, 17, was raped, strangled and buried in a Lanarkshire field.
On New Year's Day 1958, Peter Smart, 45, his wife Doris, 42, and son Michael, 10, were shot in their beds. Manuel was finally caught after being arrested for using stolen money. At Glasgow High Court, Peter Manuel was convicted of eight murders. A coroner later found him guilty of the ninth.
In July 1958, after a last meal of fish and chips, he was hanged at HM Prison Barlinnie.

Colin Norris Glaswegian-born nurse Colin Norris once boasted to colleagues, 'someone always died' on his night shifts. And when Ethel Hall, 86 - admitted with a broken hip - was found unconscious and later died, a suspicious specialist ordered blood tests. She'd been given a massive insulin overdose.
Norris was convicted and sentenced to life for the murder of Ethel Hall, 86, Doris Ludlam, 80, Bridget Bourke, 88, and Irene Crookes, 79, and attempted murder of Vera Wilby, 90.
Norris, 32, had given them lethal doses of insulin at the two Leeds hospitals where he'd worked in 2002.
Tumblr media
Murder of Emma Caldwell In May 2005 , Emma Caldwell, 27, was found dead in isolated woods near Biggar. The young woman, a Glasgow prostitute and heroin addict, had last been seen alive in the Govanhill area of Glasgow that April.
Emma's was one of a number of unsolved murders involving sex workers, and sparked a major police operation. Regular clients were interviewed by the Strathclyde force, no arrests were made. Two years after Emma's murder, police charged four Turkish men following a £4m covert operation.
The case later collapsed when evidence was brought into question - and the murder trail ran cold. The case remains open, yet unsolved.
Tumblr media
Murder of Angelika Kluk In September 2006, the body of Angelika Kluk, 23, was found under the floor of a Glasgow church. She'd been beaten, raped and stabbed to death. Last to see her alive was church handyman Patrick McLaughlin. DNA on the Polish student's body matched that of Peter Tobin, jailed for rape in 1994 and released in 2004.
The sex offender, who'd been using the alias of Patrick McLaughlin, was arrested. At the High Court in Edinburgh in May 2007, Peter Tobin, 60, was convicted of murder and jailed for life. The case also led to his conviction for the murders of Vicky Hamilton, 16, and Dinah McNicol, 18.
Some speculate that Tobin may also be 'Bible John'.
Tumblr media
House of Blood Murders A triple murder at a Glasgow flat in 2004 began with a boozy row between David Gillespie, 42, and Edith McAlinden, 37. After, David and pals Ian Mitchell, 67, and Tony Coyle, 71, lay dead, the walls dripping blood.
McAlinden, her son John, 17, and his mate, Jamie Gray, 16, each pleaded guilty to one count of murder. The teens got 12 years each, McAlinden a minimum of 13.
Tumblr media
Bible John Bible John is the nickname given to a serial killer who raped and murdered three woman after meeting them at a Glasgow ballroom between 1968 and 1969.
The killings began in February 1968, when Patricia Docker, 25, was found in a back street battered and strangled with her own stockings. In August 1969, Jemima McDonald, 32, was found dead in a derelict building. And, two months later, Helen Puttock, 29, was strangled with her stockings.
All three had spent the previous evening at Barrowlands Ballroom. Helen's sister Jeannie Williams said that Helen had danced with a man named 'John', before sharing a taxi home, during which 'John' had quoted from the Bible.
However, despite a huge murder hunt, the investigation went cold. Some crime experts believe the known movements and methods of killer Peter Tobin suggest he could be Bible John. Yet, it has never been proved and the case remains unsolved.
Tumblr media
Murder of Kriss Donald In March 2004, Kriss Donald was found dead beside the Clyde. The 15-year-old had been abducted and taken on a terrifying 200-mile drive, before being stabbed, doused in petrol and burned to death.
It seems gang members had killed him in revenge for an incident at a Glasgow club - not connected to Kriss - and he'd been singled out because he was white. Imran Shahid, 29, his brother Zeeshan, 28, and Mohammed Mushtaq, 27, were jailed for life for his murder.

Ok hear me out, but what if there was a musical universe in the Spider-Verse, in which every dialogue or scene has to be performed in a song.
Or what about an entire Spider-Verse adventure executed as a animated musical? Maybe sung-through? I can see that happening since some of the current voice actors have sang in other things (eg. Hailee Steinfeld in "Pitch Perfect", Oscar Isaac in "Inside Llewyin Davis", etc.)
Imagine Miguel singing a salsa Latin song, Penny a J-pop song, Hobie a rock/punk song, or Pavitr a Bollywood-style song, and Miles and Gwen duetting an angsty/fluff love song (or if they're solo, Miles performing a hip-hop song, and Gwen a rock ballad).
Obviously, all the music and lyrics are written by Lin-Manuel Miranda because of course he is.
