Fred West, the notorious serial killer who murdered at least 12 people alongside his wife Rose, wrote a final letter before taking his own life in prison. The letter, addressed to his wife, exposed his horrifying final wish and his unwavering devotion to her even in death.
West killed himself on New Year's Day 1995 while awaiting trial for the murders. His suicide note reportedly expressed his love for Rose and his desire to protect her from prosecution. The couple's killing spree spanned two decades, beginning when Rose was just 15 and Fred was 27.
The pair shared twisted fantasies and carried out extreme acts of sexual violence and torture in their home at 25 Cromwell Street, Gloucester. They lured victims to a 'sex dungeon' in the basement, where they committed their crimes. Police discovered the remains of several victims buried in the house and garden in 1994.
Fred initially confessed to the murders in an attempt to shield Rose from suspicion. He even showed officers where the bodies were buried. Despite his efforts, Rose was convicted of 10 murders in 1995 and is serving a life sentence.
The letter, now revealed, sheds light on West's final thoughts and his chilling obsession with his wife. It remains a haunting reminder of one of Britain's most infamous criminal couples.
