Summary

In 2022, a convicted murderer made a startling confession. The prisoner had been incarcerated for killing young women over a two-year period between 2002 and 2004. Levi Bellfield claimed he had been responsible for attacking a mother and her daughters in 1996. Michael Stone was found guilty of the murders of Lin and Megan Russell, and the attempted murder of Josie Russell, in 1998, but Stone had always claimed he was innocent. Bellfield has a reputation for confessing to things or withholding information when it suited him. Spending time, toying with the police and victims' loved ones seemed like a pastime for a man with nothing but time on his hands… (Part 1 of 2).
