Summary

This is Part One of Two of In Too Deep.


Back in 1968, Flat 35 on the fifth floor was an elegant and stylish two-bedroomed apartment owned by newly-weds; 53-year-old stockbroker Michael O’Carroll and 25-year-old model Janet Williams. Being a secure home, these flats have buzzers, intercoms, cameras, porters and service bells to ensure the residents safety. But on 12th March 1968 - as many homes have - Flat 35 was burgled. It had been planned as a simple get in-grab it-and get out caper, so this should have been an easy job for the robbers. But being planned by a gang who were both inept and ill-equipped, their home invasion would turn from a hostage situation into a brutal double murder.


  • Date: Tuesday 12th March 1968 (time of murder unknown, post 4:30pm)
  • Location: Flat 35, Falmouth House, Bayswater Road, W2
  • Victims: 2 (Michael St John O’Carroll & Janet Alive Williams'O'Carroll)
  • Culprits: 3 (David Colvan Bolton, Michael David Ellis & Raymond David Cohen)
  • Method: robbery, torture and strangulation
