In 1950 Timothy Evans was hanged for the murder of his wife and baby daughter. This is an account of all that took place in the house in Ladbroke Grove, London, of the lives of those who lived there and the events that were to lead to a miscarriage of justice.
Timothy Evans and his wife Beryl moved into lodgings in the home of John Christie, and within a short space of time the lives of the young couple were brutally shattered and destroyed by their landlord - who had murdered before. Events simply overtook Evans, a van driver for a local firm, and who was of below average intelligence, ill-educated and illiterate. He was arrested and executed while the real murderer, Christie, went free.
