Death of Hilda Murrell - Independent Review



Following heavy criticism of their investigation into Hilda’s murder, in March 1985 the West Mercia Police brought in two senior detectives from the Northumbria Police to review their handling of it. In June 1985 at a disastrous media conference, the police announced that, although the review had found little fault, it had been decided not to make public what became known as the Northumbria Report. However, they had earlier said it would be made public. Over ten years later, Robert Green received a photocopy of the report from an anonymous source who had access to this and other police files.

He has included a critique in his book A Thorn in Their Side: The Hilda Murrell Murder.
