True Crime

[Velvetee]

I love reading about crime and several ears ago, I read a book from Reader's Digest, called "True Crimes". The particular story, which intruigued me was relating to the kidnap and ransom of a British newspaper chief's wife from her home. I think it would have happened in the late 60's early 70's

Her body was found some months later on a deserted farm. Two brothers, who were immigrants from Trinidad were charged and convicted of her kidnap and murder.

I would like to find out more about this crime, by searching the net, but it's difficult when I have no names. Can anyone help?

She was called Muriel McKay. It was a case if mistaken identity. She was thought to be married to Rupert Murdoch

Thank you so much, I've hunted high and low for this information, but without success. This site has to be the most useful I've ever subscribed to.

She was married to Alec McKay. The body was never found as it was allegedly fed to pigs. McKay was Murdoch's right hand man at the time,. The guilty were Arthur and Nisamadeen (?) Hossein. Best of luck.
