At the time of recording, of the 105 Whole Life Orders issued in the United Kingdom over the last forty years, only four of them have been females. The most recent addition, was dubbed “a killer nurse” for the alarming and heart-breaking number of newborns that died in her care. Another, together with her partner, terrorised an entire region as they sexually assaulted and murdered 5 children, before burying their bodies amongst the moors. Whilst another, acting alongside her husband, used their “house of horrors” to hold captive, torture, rape and murder at least a dozen females, predominantly teenagers, between the ages of 8 and 27.

But today’s focus… Was a killer of men. It is believed that, over a period of ten days in March of 2013, 30-year-old Joanna Dennehy went on a killing spree across the city of Peterborough, butchering three men in the process, before discarding their remains in nearby ditches. Here, she claimed to have “Got a taste for it” and that the feeling was “Moreish”. Not satisfied by the Peterborough Spree, Joanna travelled 155 miles to the city of Hereford, where the brutal - and completely random attacks - started once again. In the space of less than two weeks, three men were dead, two men were severely injured, and Joanna Dennehy was on the run…

This ultimately resulted in Joanna becoming recognised, and widely regarded, as one of Britain’s most terrifying serial killers.
