One of the most harrowing stories to read is that of Beverly Allitt, which is also a case that Mick said 'will always stay uppermost in my mind' because three of his children were born at Grantham Hospital
A retired Lincolnshire Police constable has written a book about female killers in Lincolnshire which documents horrendous homicides including stabbings, beatings, a shooting, and a nurse who murdered four children in her care.
She is serving her sentence at Rampton Hospital in Nottinghamshire. She became eligible for parole in November 2021, but a decision on this was deferred until she is assessed as being well enough to move to a mainstream prison. Mick’s book also looks at unusual cases such as that of a nurse called Catherine Wilson , who murdered at least five people during her killing-spree, and a woman who killed her friend in 2002 simply because she wanted to know how it felt to take a life.
“Most of the stories in my book since the Second World War have involved women using weapons in direct attacks compared to it being indirect before then.” Some murderesses such as Susannah Mottershall and Elizabeth Ireland were clearly motivated by greed, said Mick, whilst others including Azubah Fountain and Elizabeth Garner murdered so they could be with the man they desired.
Mick started publishing short stories in a local Facebook group before creating his own group called ‘Lincolnshire – True Tales from History’, which has since grown to over 4,000 members.
