Child-killer Ian Brady — who, aided by his girlfriend Myra Hindley, committed one of the 20th century’s most horrifying and notorious serial murder sprees — died in May at age 79. But his body has not yet been disposed of and now, more than 52 years after Brady committed his final murder, the families of his young victims are again being put through emotional torment as they wait to learn what will become of the sadistic psychopath’s remains.
Between 1963 and 1965, Brady — with Hindley as his accomplice — abducted, tortured, sexually abused, and finally murdered five children ranging in age from 10 to 17 years old. The killings became known as “The Moors Murders” because Brady and Hindley buried the bodies of their victims in shallow graves on Saddleworth Moor, a large tract of rural, undeveloped land in the northwest of England, outside of Manchester.
