British police on Friday said they were investigating after an author probing the notorious "Moors Murders" killing of a 12-year-old boy in 1964 claimed to have found human remains. The boy, Keith Bennett, was one of five victims of child serial killers Ian Brady and Myra Hindley, who buried all but one of their victims on bleak moorland near the northwestern city of Manchester.
The brutality of the crimes — carried out between July 1963 and October 1965 and which in several cases included sexual assault — still inspires horror today.
Greater Manchester Police said they had been contacted on Thursday by a representative of the author, who had been researching the death of Keith Bennett.
Collville-sur-Mer, Normandy, France — The word "hero" is overused. But if not for the courage of the few remaining D-Day survivors and their friends who fell as they launched the fight to oust Adolf Hitler's Nazi German forces from France 80 years ago, there would have been no celebrations this week in Normandy.
