1
00:00:01,640 --> 00:00:03,847
Who's that? Who is that?

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,606
It's just a patient. Road traffic accident.

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,569
We're only holding two cards, Stella.

4
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:12,202
One, we have him. Two, we have her and she's alive.

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,522
The rest is a disaster.

6
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:16,523
<i>Do you have a friend called Daisy?</i>

7
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:17,727
Why?

8
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,450
There's something about her online.

9
00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,250
How she met Daddy one time.

10
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,209
Am I being interviewed under caution?

11
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,761
- Yes, you are.
- I know Rose was in that boot.

12
00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:27,649
<i>And I needed to get to her.</i>

13
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,882
And what about Mr. Spector's life?

14
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,202
Did you not have a duty to protect that?

15
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,283
Oh!

16
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,169
- I need some help in here!

17
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:38,322
- Rose, what are you doing?
- I want to go home.

18
00:00:38,480 --> 00:00:40,050
- You can't.
- I want to go home!

19
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:41,565
A man has come forward

20
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,041
having seen Spector's photograph on the news.

21
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,690
<i>He says Spector looks like a man</i>

22
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,241
<i>who rents a lock-up from him in East Belfast.</i>

23
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,323
Under the name "Baldwin".

24
00:00:50,480 --> 00:00:53,211
We've just landed a not uninteresting little case.

25
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:54,850
The Belfast Strangler.

26
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,002
- You stay away from him!
- I haven't been near him.

27
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,209
You need to get a grip! You're obsessed. It's pathetic.

28
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,249
- Who's pathetic now?

29
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,210
Ma'am.

30
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,647
Hello, Daddy. It's me, Olivia.

31
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,521
Why are you so big? And you...you look different.

32
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,286
Older. What's happening to me?

33
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,402
More victims.

34
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:33,642
Are you in pain?

35
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,562
- Here.

36
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,484
We've seen fragments before,

37
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,802
bits of pages that didn't burn in the car.

38
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,724
Enough to confirm that he kept journals

39
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,928
but...nothing like this.

40
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,522
Nothing so extensive, nothing so detailed.

41
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,887
I'd...put it to Spector

42
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,805
that between the strangulation of Rose

43
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,008
and the murder of Fiona Gallagher

44
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,924
that there must have been other attacks.

45
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,765
He said that there were no other attacks,

46
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,922
that Fiona Gallagher was his first murder.

47
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:57,806
During that gap in time,

48
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:02,568
he suggested that he always had a "project" to work on.

49
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,962
Are these those "projects"?

50
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,962
"AS."

51
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,605
Might live in the Holylands area.

52
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,331
Who might be a journalist.

53
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,724
Who seems to wake up late every day and skip breakfast.

54
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,202
Who wears a cream robe after her bath

55
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,806
and sometimes doesn't completely close

56
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,724
her bedroom curtains.

57
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,161
Or "RW."

58
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,288
Who cycles to the university most days off.

59
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,329
Somewhere in the Lisburn Road.

60
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,369
Always brings her lunch with her

61
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,249
and eats in the Botanic Gardens.

62
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,286
Who has clear, pale skin, wears close-fitting clothes

63
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,603
and walks with a short stride that Spector likes.

64
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,647
Where on the continuum of his violence

65
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,802
do these journals fit?

66
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,967
Are they just fantasies that sustain him?

67
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,088
Feed his appetites?

68
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,242
Or are they a record?

69
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,482
Of nine more murders?

70
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,891
What time of day is it? Morning, afternoon, night?

71
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,847
- Morning.
- Where are we?

72
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,608
Belfast General Hospital.

73
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,809
Can you remember the name of your nurse?

74
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,682
Kiera.

75
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,842
Are you married? Or do you have a partner?

76
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,731
I'm married.

77
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,928
Can you remember any other family members?

78
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,165
Sally-Ann has a father, John.

79
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:52,129
And a mother, Carol.

80
00:06:52,280 --> 00:06:54,851
We call her CC.

81
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,321
And what about you?

82
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,286
- Me?
- Do you have any family?

83
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,361
- No.
- Why is that?

84
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,682
My mother died.

85
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:12,842
And what about your father?

86
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,970
When I was growing up, he was known as Peter Baldwin.

87
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:24,890
I thought that man was... my father, until he left us.

88
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,123
My mother told me that he wasn't my real father,

89
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:33,204
just...just a man.

90
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,962
When did you become Paul Spector?

91
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,206
Erm...just before I met Sally-Ann.

92
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,201
Why did you change?

93
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:54,765
I wanted a...clean start. New life.

94
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:56,922
Why is that?

95
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,122
Not sure.

96
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,888
Has that new life worked for you?

97
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,849
The sheer volume of garments

98
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,210
suggest there were very many fetish burglaries at that time.

99
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,843
His journals talk of... climbing scaffolding...

100
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,367
...finding windows open, doors unlocked.

101
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,488
Alarms not set.

102
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,206
I took this photograph to be of a woman.

103
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,807
On closer inspection...

104
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,962
it's clear it's a mannequin.

105
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,802
And these pictures of him...

106
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,000
...the bondage... the auto-asphyxiation...

107
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,726
...introduce a new element to our understanding

108
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,484
of his sexual behaviour.

109
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,321
<i>Has any information returned to you</i>

110
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,721
<i>over the last 12 hours, voluntarily?</i>

111
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,002
Don't think so.

112
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:10,404
Hold this in your hand.

113
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,326
Keep it safe. Can you give it back to me in 15 minutes' time?

114
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,601
Yes.

115
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,922
Who's the British Prime Minister?

116
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,090
Tony Blair.

117
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:27,810
Have you heard of Facebook?

118
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,602
- Yes.
- What is it?

119
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,845
It's erm...it's a social networking thing.

120
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,401
And what about Twitter?

121
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,049
Don't know what that is.

122
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,362
So you don't know what a tweet is or tweeting?

123
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,008
The sound a bird makes.

124
00:09:55,560 --> 00:09:57,562
What's a hashtag?

125
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,482
No idea.

126
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,042
Presumably I'm supposed to know what these things are?

127
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:10,962
Maybe.

128
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,051
The main thing is we identify and find these women.

129
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,290
Use the initials.

130
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,047
Look at solved or unsolved sexually motivated murders

131
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,044
or attempted murders, particularly strangulations,

132
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,089
occurring in homes and apartments.

133
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:34,485
Check Missing Persons for suspected foul play.

134
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,011
We need to know if these women are alive or dead.

135
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,081
I think that's all, unless there's anything else?

136
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:47,447
We've confirmed the list of children's homes

137
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,331
Spector was in following the death of his mother.

138
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,324
We have lists of all his fellow pupils,

139
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,369
including those at Gortnacull.

140
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,727
Any news on the Benedetto girl?

141
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,884
Uniforms called at her house this morning, ma'am.

142
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,530
She didn't come home last night.

143
00:11:02,680 --> 00:11:04,444
Her mother has no idea where she is.

144
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,967
A warrant's been issued for her arrest.

145
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,762
Thank you, all.

146
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,242
<i>What's the last full day you remember?</i>

147
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,486
It was with Olivia.

148
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:23,642
Go on.

149
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,363
Erm... I took her to a playgroup.

150
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,761
A musical playgroup.

151
00:11:32,560 --> 00:11:34,562
She loves dancing.

152
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,406
And er...they all sing songs.

153
00:11:39,560 --> 00:11:42,291
Wheels On The Bus.

154
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,727
She touches all the right places

155
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,451
when she does Head, Shoulders, Knees And Toes.

156
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:53,723
Then we er... went for lunch in the park.

157
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,330
She was... peddling on her tricycle.

158
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,646
There's a pair of swans on the water there.

159
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,009
Nine or ten babies. Ugly ducklings.

160
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,363
She was talking loads.

161
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:18,128
She's always getting me to play "make believe" with her.

162
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,487
It sounds to me like Olivia's about two years old?

163
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,529
Yeah.

164
00:12:22,680 --> 00:12:24,682
But she isn't, is she?

165
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,491
<i>Can you describe what the memory loss feels like to you?</i>

166
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,442
Well...

167
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,171
...it feels like it's night-time and...

168
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,207
...there's a thunderstorm and...

169
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,647
I'm standing on a hillside.

170
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:28,322
I've been asked to...to draw a map of the valley below.

171
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,846
There's lightning flashes.

172
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,766
They light up the land, but only for a few seconds.

173
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,922
Not long enough to draw the map.

174
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:49,928
Can you recall who are you?

175
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,129
In the sense of what you were like and what you're like now?

176
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,090
Your trait characteristics?

177
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,242
Erm...

178
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,602
I'm told I have a son.

179
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,729
I have no reason to think that people are lying to me, but...

180
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,242
...I don't feel it.

181
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,601
I'm told I'm in trouble with the police.

182
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,362
I don't know what I've done.

183
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,724
I think that... I might be different,

184
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,565
but...I don't know how.

185
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,049
I feel like... I'm an all right person.

186
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,527
It'll all come back to me, won't it?

187
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,411
Your anterograde memory is working well.

188
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,328
Anything else you've forgotten, you can relearn.

189
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,842
But the ownership has gone.

190
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:04,924
- Gibson. <i>- Patrick Spencer.</i>

191
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,401
<i>ICU consultant, Belfast General Hospital.</i>

192
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,129
Thank you for calling me back, Doctor.

193
00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:11,645
I understand he's conscious.

194
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,247
<i>Yes. His physiology is normalising.</i>

195
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,290
He's cardiovascularly stable, and he's made good progress

196
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,124
given the massive insult

197
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,726
and blood loss from the bullet wounds.

198
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,566
<i>- But?</i>
- But there is an issue.

199
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,722
<i>Although his short-term memory</i>

200
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,769
<i>seems to be functioning adequately...</i>

201
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:33,643
<i>...it seems Mr. Spector has suffered</i>

202
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,531
<i>quite extensive long-term memory loss.</i>

203
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,602
OK.

204
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,844
Just gonna move your legs to the edge of the bed here.

205
00:17:54,360 --> 00:17:56,362
OK. And now I'm gonna take your arm out.

206
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,169
OK, here we go.

207
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,010
Keep going. Right, yeah...

208
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,045
- Yeah.

209
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,562
That's good. Well done.

210
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,081
<i>Apparently, he's docile.</i>

211
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:27,322
<i>Well-orientated in time and space,</i>

212
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,165
and has established good relations

213
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:31,685
with his doctors and nurses.

214
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,171
Oh, for pity's sake...

215
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,761
Seems he can acquire new information,

216
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,809
and keep track of his medical procedures,

217
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:42,601
but he has almost no recollection of the events

218
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,161
that have taken place over the last six years or so.

219
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:47,891
Are we supposed to be taking this seriously?

220
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,361
I think we have to.

221
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,524
Are they linking this...this impairment

222
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,842
directly to the shooting?

223
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,085
The nature of the amnesia has not been established yet.

224
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,163
It might be organic.

225
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,243
An injury to the brain

226
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,768
because of blood loss or resultant lack of oxygen.

227
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,491
Or it could be psychogenic.

228
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,847
A result, perhaps, of trauma.

229
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,685
But until they do an MRI scan, they can't really say.

230
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,969
So perform the MRI scan.

231
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:23,968
Spector has retained metal fragments

232
00:19:24,120 --> 00:19:26,122
from the bullet in his body.

233
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,365
If they contain iron, the fragments can be heated up

234
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,602
and the magnet could drag them through the body

235
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:34,649
and cause more organ damage.

236
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,007
Are they conducting psychological tests yet?

237
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:38,400
Yes, they are.

238
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,962
The consultant neuropsychologist is an Alison Walden.

239
00:19:42,120 --> 00:19:43,360
But Jim's right.

240
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,126
He must be feigning, surely, or at the very least,

241
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,770
exaggerating his symptoms.

242
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:49,684
To what end?

243
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,171
The law does not concern itself

244
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,800
with the present state of mind of the criminal defendant,

245
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,043
only the state of mind at the time the crime was committed.

246
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,249
And Spector's was clearly conveyed in his confession.

247
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,925
He clearly understood the difference

248
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,527
between right and wrong at the time of the crimes.

249
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,445
And therefore, he will be held accountable.

250
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,251
But it is founded on memory-based evidence.

251
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,687
If he's saying that he can't remember any of the crimes

252
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,241
it poses all sorts of problems for the courts.

253
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,170
It's almost like he's claiming that he's innocent.

254
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,687
It seems there's more than usual pressure

255
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,525
to build the evidential case against him.

256
00:20:28,360 --> 00:20:30,442
That's precisely what we're doing, sir.

257
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,241
What will happen to him if the defence does ask

258
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,890
for a mental health assessment?

259
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,522
His potential dangerousness suggests a forensic unit,

260
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,762
rather than a hospital ward.

261
00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,570
And where would that be?

262
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,927
The Foyle Clinic in East Belfast.

263
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,969
Who will assess him?

264
00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:50,770
August Larson.

265
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,366
He's the consultant forensic psychiatrist.

266
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,409
Very experienced.

267
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,961
Very used to giving expert testimony in court.

268
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,808
The sooner we get him out of the hands of the medics

269
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,406
and back into the justice system, the better.

270
00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,562
Thanks, Alison.

271
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,604
Kiera Sheridan, Mr. Spector's dedicated nurse.

272
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,364
She provides him with one-to-one care.

273
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,251
She will limit your visit if patient status warrants it.

274
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,641
- Thank you.
- She'll show you in.

275
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,003
<i>What about the wife?</i>

276
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,011
I'm worried about her.

277
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,925
It's obviously been a devastating blow to her,

278
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,287
as it would be to anyone who seems to have had...

279
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:06,602
no real suspicions.

280
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:11,402
There's no possibility of her repeating the offence.

281
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,769
She's admitted her guilt, she's corrected the facts.

282
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,730
She might even end up being a witness for the prosecution.

283
00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:21,569
I think we should drop the charges.

284
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,449
If she'd told the truth in the first place

285
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,489
about Spector's whereabouts,

286
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,371
then we could have investigated him more closely.

287
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:29,760
And perhaps Rose Stagg

288
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,287
would not have been put through the ordeal that she has.

289
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,321
I just feel that pursuing her through the courts

290
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,084
will likely have a very bad effect

291
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,242
on her mental and physical health.

292
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,810
Is prosecution really in the public interest?

293
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,928
As Director of Public Prosecutions,

294
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:51,969
I have to say I think it is.

295
00:22:52,120 --> 00:22:54,441
How things will unfold with Spector is unclear.

296
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,171
Prosecuting his wife sends a clear signal.

297
00:22:58,520 --> 00:22:59,760
We mean business

298
00:22:59,920 --> 00:23:02,321
and no-one involved will be getting off lightly.

299
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,088
Sally-Ann Spector miscarried in police custody.

300
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,323
That's a devastating thing to happen to any woman...

301
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:15,641
but particularly her.

302
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,451
Her identity is wrapped up in her children

303
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,250
and those that she cares for.

304
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,528
She's perceived as an angel

305
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,207
by the parents of the babies she looks after in the NICU.

306
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:29,364
Now it appears as if she's lost everything.

307
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:33,411
Her marriage, her...work, her unborn child.

308
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:38,531
She's paid a very high price for her naivety.

309
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,604
I can't believe that of all people, you are suggesting

310
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,081
that we treat Sally-Ann paternalistically.

311
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:48,441
I say we move ahead with the charges

312
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,807
and we can use them as leverage against Spector.

313
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:52,689
I do think we need to bear in mind

314
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:55,320
the seriousness of the offence.

315
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,010
We accepted instructions on your behalf from your wife

316
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:03,730
when you were unconscious.

317
00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,087
Today is an opportunity for you to say

318
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,289
if you're happy for us to be representing you.

319
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:13,011
I believe that the nature of your injuries

320
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,128
has been explained to you?

321
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,770
Yes.

322
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,002
And you understand that you were in police custody

323
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,447
- when you were shot?
- Yes.

324
00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,001
But I still don't know why. No-one will tell me.

325
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,690
An individual called James Tyler was responsible.

326
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,606
I don't know who that is. Why did he shoot me?

327
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:43,808
I need to get more information from the police

328
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,849
before I can explain that.

329
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,287
The more pressing issue, Mr. Spector,

330
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,011
is that the police have charged you

331
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:52,844
with a number of very serious crimes.

332
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,368
I mean...the most serious crimes on the statute book.

333
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,650
- What crimes?
- A series of murders.

334
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,841
What...what sort of murders?

335
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:10,285
With your permission,

336
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,171
let me take you through the police charge sheet.

337
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,726
All the er...alleged crimes took place in Belfast.

338
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,042
The police claim that on the tenth day of December, 2011,

339
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,567
you murdered university lecturer Fiona Gallagher

340
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,326
in her home, before fleeing the scene.

341
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:31,482
Death by strangulation.

342
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,840
That on the 15th of March, 2012...

343
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,487
...you murdered architect Alice Munroe in her home,

344
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,642
strangling her with a ligature.

345
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,610
They allege that you then washed and dried her body

346
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,685
before putting her back to bed and posing her body.

347
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:56,323
That on the 16th of April, 2012,

348
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,484
you murdered solicitor Sarah Kay in her home,

349
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,722
strangling her with a ligature.

350
00:26:03,360 --> 00:26:08,400
They allege that you washed and dried Sarah's body.

351
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,642
Washed and dried her bedclothes...

352
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,445
...painted her fingernails red...

353
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,843
...before posing her in her bed and taking photographs.

354
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,086
Sarah Kay was pregnant at the time of her death.

355
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,644
That four days later, on the 20th of April, 2012...

356
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:33,529
...you attacked and strangled

357
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,286
accountant Annie Brawley in her home.

358
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,846
They claim that you also murdered her brother,

359
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:44,445
Joseph Brawley,

360
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,568
when he tried to defend his sister.

361
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:51,123
Stabbing him three times with some decorating shears.

362
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,203
You then fled the scene.

363
00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:55,442
Annie Brawley survived the attack.

364
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,811
I don't recognise any of these people.

365
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,769
I've never seen these people before.

366
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,805
There's more.

367
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,440
They allege that on May 3rd,

368
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,922
you abducted Rose Stagg from her home.

369
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,248
Imprisoned her unlawfully

370
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:20,402
and detained her against her will.

371
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,802
I know her.

372
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,208
- Rose what? Who did you say?
- Stagg.

373
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,565
Perhaps you know Mrs. Stagg better as Rose McGill.

374
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:42,802
Yes.

375
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,246
But I haven't seen her for the last four years or so.

376
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,482
When did you last see her, do you think?

377
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,842
Early summer, 2002.

378
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,729
2002 is ten years ago, not four.

379
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,645
Have you been listening to the charges, Mr. Spector?

380
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,131
It's May 2012.

381
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:14,443
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

382
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:21,167
What happened to Rose?

383
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,322
She's alive.

384
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,324
The police say you led them to her.

385
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,721
She was found in the boot of her own car.

386
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,611
The police suggest you left her trapped.

387
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:34,762
Left her to die.

388
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:41,722
Why would I do that to Rose?

389
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,326
The police say they have a confession.

390
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,687
That you made a number of admissions.

391
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,285
I erm...have no memory of that.

392
00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,841
We think it makes sense for your first appearance in court

393
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,081
to be as soon as possible,

394
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:23,050
because it will initiate the evidential disclosure process.

395
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,486
Will you be strong enough?

396
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,329
Once we are in receipt of those documents

397
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,323
we will look at the detail of that confession

398
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,051
and take you through every bit of evidence against you.

399
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,204
Every witness statement, page by page, line by line.

400
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:39,762
Is that all clear?

401
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,089
Yes.

402
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,242
Any questions?

403
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,207
I just need some time for it all to sink in.

404
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,362
Of course.

405
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,642
Do you know who that is?

406
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,122
No. Should I?

407
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,851
If any memories relevant to the case return to you,

408
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,002
please contact Louise here.

409
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,562
We're here to help you, Mr. Spector.

410
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,845
We will guide you through this.

411
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,002
Thank you.

412
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,326
Sorry, ma'am. Rose Stagg is here to see you.

413
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,601
Set up an interview room, Dani. I'd like you to sit in.

414
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,808
Of course.

415
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,487
<i>I woke to find him in bed with me.</i>

416
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,725
He took me downstairs, his hand over my mouth.

417
00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:44,882
He took me into the kitchen.

418
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,084
Go on.

419
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:54,729
He used my name. He called me Rose.

420
00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:03,331
<i>I felt perhaps I recognised the voice.</i>

421
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,765
<i>He said he didn't want to hurt me or my lovely family.</i>

422
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,562
<i>But that he would if I cried out.</i>

423
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,442
<i>And then he released me.</i>

424
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,091
<i>When I turned round, I recognised him.</i>

425
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,282
<i>What did you think in that moment?</i>

426
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,802
<i>Just for a moment...</i>

427
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,882
<i>...I thought that maybe it would be all right.</i>

428
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:45,282
<i>That maybe it was a joke.</i>

429
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,362
<i>A game.</i>

430
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,762
What did you say?

431
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:07,527
I just said, "Peter?"

432
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,562
He...he made me dress

433
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,246
from clothes that were hanging in the utility room.

434
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,249
He made me write a note. He told me what to put.

435
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,562
The house seemed so silent.

436
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,207
The sound of the pen on the paper

437
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,362
seemed really loud in my head.

438
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,762
Like a whooshing.

439
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,200
All I could think about was getting him out of there.

440
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,124
Away from Nancy.

441
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,841
Did you resist him at all?

442
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,202
Er...I was numb.

443
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,165
I didn't really struggle

444
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:03,483
until he was walking me towards that awful building.

445
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,602
I thought, "If he takes me in there...

446
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,762
...I'm gonna die.

447
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,482
I'm gonna be the next victim."

448
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,802
That's when I tried to run.

449
00:34:25,720 --> 00:34:27,722
He was too strong.

450
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:38,242
He made tapes of you.

451
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,484
We found edited versions of those tapes on his phone.

452
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,130
You've seen them?

453
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:59,447
He tied me to a chair. It was fixed to the ground.

454
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,290
And he sat behind the camera so that when I looked at him...

455
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,328
...I was looking directly into the lens.

456
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,802
He hardly spoke. He...he just stared at me.

457
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,371
I tried everything I could to get through to him.

458
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,169
I begged him. I flattered him.

459
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,800
I insulted him. I tried to provoke him, even.

460
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,682
He didn't respond.

461
00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:40,769
His eyes were open but it was like he was in a trance.

462
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,687
Did he sexually assault you?

463
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,844
No. I don't think so.

464
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,484
Did he perform sex acts on himself?

465
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:57,881
Did he masturbate in front of you?

466
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:00,008
No, just the filming.

467
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:07,771
Are those healing all right?

468
00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,482
I'm told I did it to myself.

469
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:18,167
I've no memory of that.

470
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,290
We found a broken lens from a pair of sunglasses

471
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,408
in the boot of your car.

472
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,450
Your blood was on them. There were no other fingerprints.

473
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,651
I can't work out if it's just marks...

474
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:37,522
...or if it's a message.

475
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:40,485
When I first saw it...

476
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:45,685
...it looked like an attempt to write, "I love you."

477
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,049
Breathe.

478
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:13,887
I always thought that I wanted...love and security.

479
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:20,370
Now I just... feel like I'm floating free...

480
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,402
...in a void.

481
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,926
You have such a strong sense of purpose.

482
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,127
I feel like there's nothing beneath my feet right now.

483
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:46,444
Like...nothing steadying them.

484
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:52,969
It's as if I'm slightly drunk.

485
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,842
Rose...Rose...

486
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,927
Remember...you survived.

487
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:09,002
You got through it.

488
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:13,202
It's in the past.

489
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,929
<i>Paul Spector, a 32-year-old bereavement counsellor</i>

490
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,243
<i>from South Belfast charged with four counts of murder</i>

491
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:39,007
<i>is due to make his first appearance in court today.</i>

492
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,286
<i>The four female victims,</i>

493
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,807
<i>all young, professional women in their 30s,</i>

494
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:45,247
<i>were attacked in their homes at night.</i>

495
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:46,481
<i>Three of those women</i>

496
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:50,201
<i>died of manual or ligature strangulation.</i>

497
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:52,681
<i>Spector, a married man and father-of-two,</i>

498
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,968
<i>is also charged with the attempted murder</i>

499
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:56,565
<i>of accountant Annie Brawley</i>

500
00:38:56,720 --> 00:38:59,200
<i>and the abduction and unlawful imprisonment</i>

501
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,966
<i>of Belfast radiologist Rose Stagg.</i>

502
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,402
Your head.

503
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,281
I worry this is all too soon for you.

504
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,207
I'll be fine.

505
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,369
Detective Superintendent Gibson!

506
00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:09,251
The man you have in custody, will he be in court today?

507
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:38,969
How are you doing? Are you ready for this?

508
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,282
I'm a bit nervous, but yeah.

509
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,250
Yeah. Shall we head up, then?

510
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,807
Stand there.

511
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:34,851
Look straight into the camera.

512
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:38,083
You'll be able to see the judge and the legal teams.

513
00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:39,890
Answer any questions clearly.

514
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,928
The er...prosecution has suggested

515
00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,003
we read the shortened version of the charge.

516
00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:06,004
- You happy enough with that?
- Yeah, that's fine.

517
00:42:09,240 --> 00:42:11,527
- All rise.

518
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,208
Thank you. Please sit.

519
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,442
Are you ready to proceed, ma'am?

520
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,402
I am.

521
00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:37,724
Mr. Spector, can you see and hear the proceedings?

522
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,769
<i>Yes.</i>

523
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:41,763
The charges against the accused

524
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:44,127
are stated as four counts of murder,

525
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,442
one of attempted murder,

526
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,888
and one of abduction and unlawful imprisonment.

527
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,328
<i>Can you confirm for the court that you are Peter Paul Spector?</i>

528
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,369
Yes.

529
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:59,241
<i>That your date of birth is the 25th of May, 1979?</i>

530
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,050
That's correct.

531
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:03,851
And that you live at 64 Tiberias Drive,

532
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,322
Belfast, BT6 7KM.

533
00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,767
<i>So I've been told.</i>

534
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,122
Why is he answering in that manner?

535
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,442
Ma'am, if I may.

536
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:20,648
My client has to answer in that manner

537
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,371
because he has suffered significant memory loss.

538
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:24,646
As you no doubt know,

539
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:28,122
Mr. Spector was shot while in police custody.

540
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:32,171
He lost his spleen as a result and was in a coma for some time.

541
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,084
The reason he is appearing from hospital

542
00:43:34,240 --> 00:43:36,925
is that he is still being held there in intensive care.

543
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:41,369
I have written reports from the ICU consultant, Dr. Spencer,

544
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:43,568
and from the consultant neuropsychologist,

545
00:43:43,720 --> 00:43:45,210
Dr. Alison Walden,

546
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,488
that explain the nature and degree

547
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,246
of my client's disability.

548
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,084
Dr. Walden is approved

549
00:43:52,240 --> 00:43:55,244
under part two of the Mental Health Order, 1986.

550
00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:56,765
There's information there

551
00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,366
about the treatment Mr. Spector's undergone

552
00:43:59,520 --> 00:44:02,649
and an account of his behaviour in hospital.

553
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:04,290
The memory loss, you will see,

554
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,522
covers a period of approximately six years

555
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,923
up to and including the recent shooting.

556
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:14,163
One of the primary foundations of criminal law

557
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:16,891
is that all defendants are capable

558
00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:20,044
of actively participating in their defence.

559
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,966
<i>Mr. Spector's amnesia prevents him from so doing.</i>

560
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,361
<i>Whilst Mr. Spector understands that he is in court</i>

561
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,364
<i>and charged with a number of criminal offences,</i>

562
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:32,204
<i>and understands the nature and object</i>

563
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:34,567
<i>and the possible consequences of the proceedings,</i>

564
00:44:34,720 --> 00:44:36,882
he cannot enter a plea.

565
00:44:37,040 --> 00:44:39,520
He cannot consult with, or assist his lawyer.

566
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,001
He cannot give evidence in his own defence.

567
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,970
On that basis, I feel I need to raise the issue of competence

568
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,681
as to whether Mr. Spector is fit to stand trial.

569
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:50,729
Mr. Healy, let me stop you there.

570
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,121
The concerns you have raised are noted,

571
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:54,964
but you know as well as I do

572
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,771
that it's not a matter on which this court can adjudicate.

573
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,011
Mr. Spector, do you understand

574
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,606
that your case must be sent to Crown Court?

575
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,446
- Yes.

576
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,762
<i>Then you will be held on remand in hospital</i>

577
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,331
<i>until arrangements can be made</i>

578
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:19,246
<i>to transfer you to a secure psychiatric clinic,</i>

579
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:21,323
<i>where more tests can be done</i>

580
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:25,007
<i>to determine the nature of your mental disability.</i>

581
00:45:44,720 --> 00:45:46,484
That's the guy who's defending the murderer!

582
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,246
Mr Healy, how does it feel to be defending the Belfast Strangler?

583
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,051
The alleged Belfast Strangler.

584
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,446
<i>Dressed in a blue sweatshirt and tracksuit bottoms,</i>

585
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:02,080
<i>Mr Spector spoke only to confirm his name and date of birth</i>

586
00:46:02,240 --> 00:46:03,730
<i>during the ten-minute hearing.</i>

587
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,008
<i>At that point proceedings took a bizarre twist</i>

588
00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,447
<i>as it became apparent that the alleged serial killer</i>

589
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:10,967
<i>is suffering from significant memory loss.</i>

590
00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,009
<i>Mr. Spector was remanded in custody</i>

591
00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,845
<i>to undergo further medical and psychiatric assessment.</i>

592
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,844
<i>Following the hearing, the Public Prosecution Service</i>

593
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,729
<i>confirmed that Sally-Ann Spector</i>

594
00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,724
<i>will appear in the Crown Court on Monday, 2nd of July,</i>

595
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:26,201
<i>to face charges of perverting the course of justice.</i>

596
00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,806
<i>The prosecution claims that Mr. Spectofs wife</i>

597
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,440
<i>provided her husband with false alibis.</i>

598
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,045
Gibson.

599
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,680
<i>Superintendent Gibson?</i>

600
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:57,126
Yes.

601
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:00,090
<i>I'm August Larson.</i>

602
00:47:00,240 --> 00:47:01,890
<i>I'm the consultant psychiatrist</i>

603
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,361
<i>who's been asked to assist Paul Spector.</i>

604
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,441
It's an odd time to be calling, Doctor.

605
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:13,809
Are you still working?

606
00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,849
<i>Yes.</i>

607
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,526
Well, there you are.

608
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,444
Before he's moved here,

609
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,001
I need to determine the risk of violence

610
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:27,165
towards himself and others, and plan his management.

611
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,643
Have you seen the list of crimes he's been charged with?

612
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,810
<i>I received that information from the court, yes.</i>

613
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:42,483
In my experience, a history of previous violence

614
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:45,484
is the best predictor for future violence

615
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,850
for someone whether they are mentally disordered or not.

616
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:54,244
<i>And Paul Spector is a violent sexual sadist.</i>

617
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,122
Why are you so kind to me?

618
00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,921
If I've done the things that the...police say I've done,

619
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:12,684
then I'm a monster.

620
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,762
It's my job.

621
00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:24,322
What?

622
00:48:26,440 --> 00:48:28,807
It says in your notes that there were tears in your eyes

623
00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:30,803
during your surgery.

624
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:32,769
That you were crying.

625
00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:38,685
Was I?

626
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,049
Does that mean anything to you?

627
00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,042
Perhaps.

628
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:55,763
I just can't believe the memory loss is real.

629
00:48:57,720 --> 00:49:00,849
He's just the sort of person who would feign amnesia

630
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,685
if he felt there was something to be gained from it.

631
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:06,286
<i>Even for the sheer delight of duping people...</i>

632
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,488
<i>particularly experts.</i>

633
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:12,281
Someone like me, for example?

634
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:16,130
<i>I'm just saying that from my conversations with him</i>

635
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:18,203
<i>it seems to me that he exhibits, if anything,</i>

636
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:22,524
<i>a...superior memory for his violence.</i>

637
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:24,569
It's clear to me...

638
00:49:24,720 --> 00:49:29,009
that he rehearsed the crimes in his mind over and over.

639
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,606
They were heavily scripted.

640
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:35,003
And so the crimes themselves were memorable,

641
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:37,845
both in the way that they matched the script

642
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,002
and in the way that they differ.

643
00:49:41,240 --> 00:49:45,689
So, in my view, it's...extremely unlikely

644
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,491
that he has... forgotten anything.

645
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,688
Faced with memory loss,

646
00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:53,810
there is only one way a clinician can go...

647
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:56,201
and that is to investigate.

648
00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:01,885
If we take him here, then that is what I intend to do.

649
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,850
<i>If you have the time I'd really appreciate</i>

650
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,129
<i>a pre-morbid appraisal of Mr. Spector from you.</i>

651
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:12,205
<i>As someone who has had extensive dealings with him.</i>

652
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:14,647
Anything at all you can tell me about him

653
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,882
would be extremely useful.

654
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:21,962
I'll help in any way I can.

655
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:25,327
<i>Thank you.</i>

656
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:27,482
<i>Good night.</i>

657
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:30,802
- Good night.

658
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:45,651
<i>Everything went dark.</i>

659
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,326
And did time seem to speed up or slow down?

660
00:50:50,720 --> 00:50:52,722
Sped up.

661
00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,042
I was rushing through a tunnel.

662
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:01,965
And did you see or feel surrounded by a brilliant light?

663
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,207
- There was a light.
- Can you describe it?

664
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:10,802
Erm...incredibly bright. Blinding.

665
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:12,849
And hot?

666
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,401
No. Not hot.

667
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,404
Did you come to a border or a point of no return?

668
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,202
There was a point erm... I felt I could have gone on.

669
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:31,928
But there were voices calling me back.

670
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,082
What voices?

671
00:51:34,240 --> 00:51:37,323
My daughter. Olivia.

672
00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:08,243
<i>And was there anyone else there known to you?</i>

673
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:10,243
<i>Living or dead?</i>

674
00:52:11,720 --> 00:52:13,961
- Yes.
- Who?

675
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,642
I think my mother.

676
00:52:22,720 --> 00:52:24,722
And what happened?

677
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:28,482
How did you feel in her presence?

678
00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:39,646
Afraid.

679
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:41,564
Did she speak to you?

680
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,042
She was calling me.

681
00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:50,249
I think she wanted me to come to her...

682
00:52:51,240 --> 00:52:54,005
...towards the light.

683
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:58,210
But there was other voices. My daughter calling me back.

684
00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:05,130
And did you want to come back to your body?

685
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,089
Come back to life?

686
00:53:11,720 --> 00:53:13,722
No.

687
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:17,402
But I couldn't just abandon her.

688
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:21,522
Is that when you cried?

689
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,409
Hey.

690
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,202
Drink it all up.

691
00:53:43,720 --> 00:53:45,722
Good girl.

692
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,202
Now...

693
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,207
You came close to dying.

694
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:29,164
What do you now understand death to be?

695
00:54:29,320 --> 00:54:31,607
What does death mean to you now?

696
00:54:35,200 --> 00:54:38,682
I know that life... is our only true possession.

697
00:54:41,240 --> 00:54:43,322
And death?

698
00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:53,967
I've found a murder that looks promising.

699
00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,043
Really? The right initials?

700
00:54:56,200 --> 00:55:01,331
That's not the connection. A law student, Susan Harper.

701
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:03,721
Do you think she looks right?

702
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,281
Yes, absolutely. Just a bit younger.

703
00:55:06,440 --> 00:55:10,286
21. The only problem is there is someone doing time for it.

704
00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:12,841
It's an individual called David Alvarez.

705
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:15,571
Now, I remembered I saw his name yesterday

706
00:55:15,720 --> 00:55:17,529
on the list of children who were at Gortnacull

707
00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:19,205
at the same time as Spector.

708
00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:20,850
So I've done some digging.

709
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,401
And they are one and the same.

710
00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,801
The David Alvarez who's doing time for the murder

711
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,405
is the same David Alvarez

712
00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:30,166
who was a fellow pupil of Spector's at the home.

713
00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:32,402
Why was Alvarez convicted?

714
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:36,485
His DNA on her body. A subsequent confession.

715
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,642
That's pretty conclusive.

716
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,329
What year is this?

717
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,482
August, 2002.

718
00:55:46,240 --> 00:55:49,050
In London.

719
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:52,841
Now there's a gap in Spector's timeline there.

720
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:56,129
We don't know where he was or what he was doing.

721
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,042
No, we don't.

722
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:29,963
I'll see you in the morning. Try and get some sleep.

723
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:42,887
I'll pray for you.
