SHE MURDERED HER MAN, SHE GOT WHAT I WOULD HAVE GIVEN HER. END OF STORY.

It is worthwhile seeing the film 'Dance With A Stranger' about Ruth Ellis which convinced me that she should not have been hanged in view of the violence she suffered at the hands of David Blakely. I am in favour of hanging for the most extreme cases such as child murder and would have been happy to see the likes of Myra Hindley and Rose West on the end of a rope.

The "peroxide blonde" slutty look Ruth is known for was one adopted towards the end of her life, at the behest of Desmond Cussons who had an influence over her and was a shadowy figure almost certainly involved with the intelligence services. As probably intended, it did her no good in court nor in engendered public sympathy.

There has been a massive cover-up of some sort.

It seems Ruth was involved in intelligence surveillence of some sort, involving prominent people. Stephen Ward (Profumo) was involved. The truth is very obscure. An interesting fact is that Justice Havers paid for Ruth's sons private education after her execution. Unprecedented. Later, prosecuting counsel, Christmas Humphries paid for him to move to better accomodation from a dingy flat. When he committed suicide many tape recordings supposedly went missing.

@noonsight2010 I hear you, why do you believe they convicted the wrong person for, just to save face ?

@noonsight2010 judging by the reaction to my comment I stand corrected, I wondered why there was such an out cry to what seems like a close and shut case

Pierrepoints fastest hanging: 10.3 seconds. The most accurate on screen is that in "10 Rillington Place" where Timothy Evans (played by John Hurt) is hanged. Even the time is accurate,not all details are correct. Below is a lot of speculation over one of the closest guarded state secrets. It was intended that death should be instantaneous with long-drop, through dislocation of vertebrae. Often went wrong most of the remarks below are on details not in the public domain.

Harry Allen was never strictly a hangman, only ever a "number 2" to hangmen. "The Last Hangman" is, If I remember the title of his book (years since I read it). He was the last surviving no1 or no2. Some of his items (working model gallows etc) are in the Crime Museum at New Scotland Yard.

I've been to the Magdela Public House and met both Ruth's sister and a historian on the case.
