Myra Hindley, a notorious figure in the realm of true crime, was, alongside her partner in crime, Ian Brady, convicted of the heinous acts of kidnapping and murder, which occurred between the years 1963 and 1965.
At the tender age of 18, Myra Hindley crossed paths with Ian Brady, a man four years her senior, and the two became enamored with one another. As their relationship blossomed, Ian Brady introduced Myra Hindley to the ideologies of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi party, as well as the works of the Marquis de Sade, a philosopher known for his controversial views on sexuality and morality. This exposure had a profound impact on Myra Hindley, who began to adopt Ian Brady's beliefs that rape and murder were not inherently wrong. Her devotion to Ian Brady was unwavering, and she transformed her appearance to conform to his tastes, adorning herself in short skirts and long boots, while also bleaching her hair to achieve a distinctive look.
