Give me an hour with him, certain drugs and some medical equipment and he'd sing a different song, take him to the burial site and exhume Keith and then tell Brady he's staying, inject him with a muscle relaxant and then bury him alive. Otherwise hand him over to JSIW for practice or do a deal with the Yanks and send him to Gittmo for a three times daily bath until he squeals, or throw him into the general population at either Barlinnie or Peterhead, as he wishes to happen.
I maintain that Brady would never forget anything of the bestial crimes he committed, least not where the kid is buried.
I quote " Numerous searches of the moors, including some which Hindley and Brady attended, found nothing. With Brady in particular, there has long been debate over whether he has forgotten where Keith was buried, or whether he enjoyed knowing and withholding the information. Brady responded to Mrs Johnson’s numerous pleas with a letter in 2005 in which he boasted of his “clarity” regarding events surrounding the killing, complained about his treatment in Ashworth hospital, but gave her no assistance. It was the response of a psychopath intent upon exercising the only control he had left: the ability to prolong the pain of others.
Brady and Hindley are the reason why I think the end of the death penalty is justified. As long as life imprisonment means exactly that. For some crimes - and their's is one example - a lifetime with no prospect of freedom is just retribution. The one ng they both desired and desire is release and the longer they suffer, the better. For anyone with any doubt about this, use a web search to find the transcript of the tape recording they made while they tortured poor Leslie Ann to death and read all of it.
There is a distinct possibility that the vegetation on the Moor will show up differently at certain times of the year. We are not privy to information as to the number, frequency or intensity of any Aerial survey (s) which may have been performed.
IIRC, the recovered bodies were taken to saddleworth Mortuary in Uppermill.
Long-disused it was finally demolished and the site is now part of the car-park behind the library in Uppermill.
I, too remember the Holmfirth Road being closed whilst the evil pair were Heli'd in for their day out. Amazed that one of the local marksmen didn't give one or both a dose of lead-poisoning.......but there again, I think half the North West's plod were there.
Some years later, a copycat cretin attempted to bury a body in the copse of trees below Binn Green...they were seen and justice was done on that occasion.
Brady black to the core. Hindley a self-serving , immoral saddo. Had she truly repented, she'd have topped herself in remorse. both deserve sad, lonely,lingeringand painful deaths. (afaik that was indeed Hindley's fate.)
"Ian Brady deserves respect and dignity, says mother-of-two at centre of letter investigation Jackie Powell, the mental health advocate who was handed a letter which may disclose where Keith Bennett is buried, has said Moors murderer Ian Brady should be treated with "dignity and respect"."
Digity and respect? Really? off! I doubt he treated any of them poor kids with that. Some people just don't have the right to normal human rights.
With regards to death penalties I just believe you deserve back what you give out. Life imprisonment is one thing, but prisons are full of tvs, playstations, drugs even etc (if the tv programmes are anything to go by) and I just don't think they teach the right lesson. To some it's a better life than they otherwise would have. I'm taking lessor criminals now but the same problem applies. I saw a programme once about a Russian prison, very basic, you went outside with a cover over your head and hands tied. They had no nice things, and it was very dull and boring and down right awful. They reformed, because jail was so terrible they couldn't bare to do anything again to get into that place again.
People like Brady, all the other murderers, people who do awful things to others for no reason, they shouldn't be allowed to be on this earth, they don't deserve the right to live if they take the life of someone else.
Death penalties I know will never come back, too many people against things. Don't get why, this country loves a good party and rally round. A good public hanging would probably be as popular as the jubilee! Anyway, I know this won't happen, but I do believe people like this should be put in solatry (spelling?) confinement, no daylight or anything. I saw (another) programme about this (I watch alot of tv!!!) and it sent the guy crazy, seeing and hearing things. That's true punishment to someone who is still alive I believe.
i also heard the BBC radio interview on which jackie powell was being interviewed.
during the slot, it was also mentioned the Brady had boasted privately how on one of his previous leading the police about the moors, they had actually walked over Keith's grave.

i'll pass on reading the transcript..
i do take your point blacksheep, the only fall down there is that prisons under fluffists have become long stay hotels; John Hirst murdered his landlady with an axe for a trivial matter and was recently driving the campaign for prisoners to get the vote.
As a matter of record, capital punishment was abolished in 1965 on a free vote by two to one & again by two to one in the Lords. Furthermore a free vote on restoration was held in every parliament until 1997. After that it was dropped - parliament knew it was not coming back in this country.
Personally, the 15 year hunger strike and consistent agitation by Brady demonstrates to me that his punishment has been far more retributive than had he swung for his odious crimes. I like that he's rotting in jail a day at a time.
It's quite likely that punishment is a pleasure if the masochistic side is now well developed. In the context of seeing him strung up with piano wire one must imagine that these days he's having quite a good time.
There is one punishment that would be fair for Brady: that he should feel, as if it were happening to him, all the pain and terror of those poor children, and the grief and desolation of their families and friends.
3800 abortions a week in the UK and they cannot find anyone to kill these monsters ? Killing an innocent fetus is allowed, but killing some heinous child killer is not. Justice ? The world has gone mad.
