Popkov wished to “cleanse” the streets of prostitutes, although many of his victims were not sex workers. A court heard testimony about the brutality of his murder spree and how he attacked the victims with axes and knives. Russian serial killer Mikhail “The Werewolf” Popkov terrorized Siberia between 19. The young couple went to the police, and the Moors Murderers’ reign of terror finally came to an end. When Smith returned home, he vomited at the thought of what he had just witnessed and confessed to 19-year-old Maureen. Smith recalled, “I go into this room and hitting him and hitting him with an axe.” įearing Brady would turn on him, Smith helped with wrapping the body and cleaning the crime scene. In 1965, 17-year-old Smith witnessed the murder of Brady and Myra Hindley’s final victim, 17-year-old Edward Evans. When Maureen was a teenager, she fell in love with and married neighbor David Smith. Pictured above with the twisted couple is Hindley’s younger sister, Maureen, who was unaware of the couple’s hidden evil. Three of the bodies were buried in graves dug on Saddleworth Moor near Manchester. The Moors murderers were British serial killing duo Ian Brady and Myra Hindley who killed five children between 19.
