British Murders with Stuart Blues

The Killamarsh Murders: An Avoidable Tragedy? (Derbyshire, 2021)

20 Sep 2023

Description

In this end-of-season special, I tell the stories of Terri Harris, John and Lacey Bennett and Connie Gent, who were murdered in Killamarsh, Derbyshire, on September 18, 2021.Terri and her two children, John and Lacey, lived in a property at Chandos Crescent, Killamarsh, with Damien Bendall, a man whom Terri had met on an online dating app after separating from Jason Bennett, John and Lacey's dad.Many mistakes and missed opportunities were made regarding Bendall's risk status to those he knew and children by the probation service. Hence, I've posed the question in this episode's title as to whether this was an avoidable tragedy.On September 18, Connie stayed at the Killamarsh house to spend time with her best friend, Lacey. Between the late hours of that evening and the early hours of the following day, all four were killed by Bendall, whose arrest later that day was caught on police bodycam footage.Bendall received a whole life order in December 2022 after pleading guilty to four counts of murder and one count of rape of a child under 13.For all things British Murders, please visit my website:⁣britishmurders.com⁣Intro music:⁣David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'⁣linktr.ee/davidjohnbradymusic⁣References:⁣britishmurders.com/killamarsh Hosted on Acast.
