Maybe, but that was quite a famous gruesome case in Essex, not Slough. The copper was shot in each eye. There were two hangings for this murder, one in Wandsworth Prison, the other in Pentonville. Have a browse through this site site Cic. you may spot something: www.murderfile.net |

| 390655 | 2005-09-25 06:15:00 | Here's another interesting site giving details of murder, including the Gutheridge police murder. www.real-crime.co.uk A tip Cicero for searching UK facts, use www.google.co.uk and tick the button for uk sites only, that limits the amount of crud to wade through. |

Thank you Terry and the rest of you decent chaps. The only other info I have gleaned is that he did 8 years. It has been a dark secret and friend would like any info as you can imagine. |
