The sister of infamous serial killer Fred West has made a chilling confession about her own traumatic past, revealing she fell pregnant by her brother as a teenager.
Kitty West, now in her 70s, bravely shared her harrowing story of abuse at the hands of Fred, who would later become one of Britain's most notorious murderers.
A Family's Dark Secret
In a shocking interview, Kitty disclosed how Fred began sexually abusing her when she was just 12 years old. The abuse continued for years, resulting in a pregnancy when she was 16.
'I didn't understand what was happening at first,' Kitty recalled. 'He told me it was normal between brothers and sisters.'
The Painful Aftermath
The pregnancy ended in miscarriage, a traumatic event Kitty kept secret for decades. She described how Fred's violent tendencies were evident even in their youth, long before his killing spree with wife Rose West.
Psychological experts suggest such early abusive behavior often foreshadows later violent crimes. Fred West would eventually be charged with 12 murders before taking his own life in prison in 1995.
Breaking the Silence
Now speaking out, Kitty hopes her story will help other abuse survivors find their voice. 'I lived with this shame for so long,' she said. 'But it wasn't my fault - and other victims need to know that too.'
Her revelations provide disturbing new insight into the West family dynamics that may have contributed to Fred's later crimes.
