Due to the graphic nature of this killer's crimes, listener discretion is advised.

This episode includes discussions of murder, pedophilia, and assault that some people may find

offensive.

We advise extreme caution for children under 13. Two paper coffins sat on the window sill of Robert John Maudsley's prison cell.

After washing the blood off his hands and face, Robert admired the coffins with sinister satisfaction.

The water ran red with blood as Robert rinsed off his makeshift knife.

He glanced at his reflection in the mirror, making sure his appearance remained unblemished.

He couldn't leave a single drop of blood.

Nothing to give himself away, not until he was done.

Satisfied he was at least clean, Robert gazed proudly at his handiwork, the body of a fellow inmate lay in the center of the cell.

Blood from dozens of stab wounds leaked onto the floor.

Grunting with the effort, he pushed the corpse beneath his bunk, hiding it from view.

With the body tucked out of sight, he looked back towards the window sill at the two tiny coffins.

They were a reminder of the promise he'd made to himself.

He would kill two people that day.

As he approached the open door of his cell,

Robert gripped the knife tightly in his hand.
