In the late night hours of August 8, 1998, Police exhumed a body from the grounds of the graveyard behind Hyde chapel in greater Manchester, England. On this night, the murderous activities of Britain’s worst serial killer began to reveal themselves. In the days and weeks to come, one exhumation would follow another, as more and more victims of the understated doctor with the exceptional bedside manner were uncovered. Police were to be overwhelmed with investigations into the deaths of nearly 250 patients of Dr Harold Shipman.
The only person who truly knows how many victims there were took his own life in 2004. By most accounts, however, the man who has been dubbed ‘the doctor of death’ claimed 250 lives.
