NOWHERE TO HIDE The Most Evil Criminals in Britain are Brought to Justice by Amazing DNA Technology

Hardback. A gruesome string of murderers, rapists and criminals who laughed at the law for years are being brought to justice through DNA profiling. The revolutionary technique of 'genetic fingerprinting' has meant convictions, long after they committed their crimes, for the evil men who mistakenly thought they had escaped detection. Cases that have ended with the guilty men standing in the dock are chronicled in this fascinating examination of the past two decades of forensic crime-fighting and how it has finally put the villains where they belong - behind bars. From the sensational groundbreaking case of bakery worker Colin Pitchfork who murdered two teenage girls near his Leicestershire home to the historic conviction of teenage shop assistant Craig Harman - tracked down by his close relative's DNA for slaying an innocent lorry driver by hurling a brick at him from a motorway bridge - this engrossing book details the crime, the criminals and the men and women who brought them to justice. With Epilogue and Glossary. 296pp. 8vo. h/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. V. lightly browned edges o/w Nr. F. in F. dw.
