i well remember in 1965/66 the abduction and murder of little margaret reynolds from aston who was found on cannock chase..i lived in villa st quite a way from where she lived in clifton road and the police came and checked all of our back gardens and the area...its odd but mansfield road were anne daniels lived and the school where she was found was very close to where margaret reynolds lived in clifton road so i wonder if there was a connection with the culprit...i guess we will never find out now but if only they had back then the technology of DNA that we have now...very sad

Child killer Raymond Morris 'guilty of more murders'

A former police officer who investigated the Cannock Chase child murders in the 1960s says she has no doubt Raymond Morris was guilty of all the killings.

I believe this is the case you are referring to.

Her full name was Elizabeth Anne Daniels and her murderer was Michael John Collins…

24yo Michael Collins made a full confession of his guilt in the killing of 16yo Elizabeth Anne Daniels. When first speaking with detectives after his arrest, he claimed he “wanted to get it off his chest”. #truecrime #truectimepodcast #ukpodcast #ukh
