BIBLE JOHN murders [viz Tobin, Peter]: David Hayman: The Bible John Mystery TV - Peter Tobin TV - The Hunt for Bible John TV -
Four decades ago while the rest of the world celebrated the swinging sixties, flower power and free love, fear gripped Glasgow. It seemed that one man, one monster, had made this place – the Barrowland Ballroom – his hunting ground. David Hayman, The Bible John Mystery ***** CI 2011
The newspapers soon gave this killer a name – Bible John. ibid.
Then the murders stopped and no-one knows why. ibid.
We investigate new information which links Bible John’s crimes to Scotland’s most vicious serial killer – Peter Tobin. ibid.
Was there more than one killer at large? ibid.
Peter Tobin was convicted of Angelika’s murder in 2007 and sentenced to twenty-one years. But monsters like Tobin don’t usually start killing at the age of sixty. ibid.
One such case was the disappearance of 14-year-old Vicky Hamilton in 1991. ibid.
The police discovered Tobin had moved from Bathgate to the seaside town of Margate just before Dinah went missing. ibid.
Forensic tests revealed that Tobin had drugged, raped and strangled Vicky in his Bathgate home. Later he cut her body in two, transported her remains to his new house in Margate and buried her. But Tobin’s horrors didn’t end with Vicky. ibid.
Is Peter Tobin Bible John? ibid.
A woman recently told police she had met Tobin at the Barrowland in 1968 and he raped her shortly after they left. ibid.
There are other victims of his out there. ibid.
