Killers Behind Bars: The Untold Story

Description: Professor David Wilson, a former prison governor-turned-Birmingham criminologist - whom Channel 5 describes as a real-life `Cracker' - digs deeper into the crimes committed by some of the country's most notorious serial killers. Using advanced criminology techniques and studying interview tapes and evidence gathered as crime scenes, Wilson seeks to link more unsolved murders to these convicted killers, believing that their known crimes are simply the tip of the iceberg. He studies the cases of Peter Tobin, serving three life terms for the murders of three women; Robert Black, dubbed `Britain's most prolific child murderer'; and `The Suffolk Strangler' Steve Wright, imprisoned for life for the murders of five prostitutes.
