The family of Moors Murder victim Keith Bennett has condemned the sale of a Christmas card and personal letters penned by Ian Brady on a murder memorabilia website. The card, signed by Brady from Ashworth High Security Hospital, reads: 'With best wishes for Christmas and the New Year' and includes a handwritten note. The Bennett family lawyer stated that trading in such items shows a lack of empathy towards the families of Brady's victims.
THE family of Moors Murder victim Keith Bennett has hit out at a website selling a festive card and personal letters penned by evil child killer Ian Brady .
In response to the sick find, the lawyer for the Bennett family, John Ainley told The Sun: "My client finds it hard to believe that someone would buy any items previously owned or sent by Ian Brady who was a paedophile and convicted serial killer."Trading in such items shows a lack of empathy with the families of children murdered by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley."
Most of their young victims were buried on Saddleworth Moor in the South Pennines but Keith's body was never found despite Hindley and Brady confessing to his murder. Now Ainley has confirmed to The Sun that they have received nothing from Keightley's estate over the past 18 months since his death.Brady's best pal Alan Keightley is believed to have information about Keith's burial place but died in 2023At the time of Keightley's death, Ainley told The Sun how the academic had refused to help the Bennett family or even co-operate with police during his lifetime - but renewed pleas for any information to be handed in.
