   It isn’t clear when they disposed of the spade. Hindley gave a verbal account of using the same spade for the first three murders, but, in writing, she stated that they bought another spade for the next murder.
48.
   Staff, ‘Myra Hindley in her own Words’. In the account she gave to Duncan Staff, Hindley stated that she took a couple of Nembutals and put on clean underwear and a dressing gown before drifting off to sleep with Brady in front of the fire; they ‘celebrated’ with the Drambuie the following night.

   Staff, ‘Hindley Tried to Join Police after First Killing’. Norman Sutton left the police force when the news of his affair with Myra Hindley broke. He and his wife eventually divorced. Duncan Staff tracked him down to a nursing home in Blackpool where he had little to say about the relationship. In her prison cell, Hindley pinned
The
Sun
’s front-page story about their affair to the wall above her bed. It was still there when she died.
29.
   Presumably Hindley either still had the use of the Ford Prefect van or had borrowed someone else’s car; Brady’s memory of the event is very clear.

   Emlyn Williams Collection, Preliminary Notes, Ref: L3/4, National Library of Wales. Mrs Kilbride was talking to Emlyn Williams. In
Beyond Belief
, he advanced the theory that Kennedy’s assassination provided a psychological trigger for the murder of John Kilbride, but when Topping questioned Brady and Hindley separately about the matter, they both insisted that it was a coincidence. The abduction vehicle had already been hired for 23 November 1963.

   Hindley couldn’t remember seeing Brady remove the spade from the boot when he and John walked onto the moor; if he had, then John would have realised that something was terribly wrong. But she insisted that Ian had buried John before returning to the car.

   Brady disputed Hindley’s account to Topping: he insisted that she had picked Keith up on her own, then drove to Ardwick to meet him, coincidentally, at Bennett Street. Topping did not believe him.

   Topping,
Topping

13.
   Hindley told Topping that Brady definitely wasn’t carrying a spade. She thought he must have hidden it earlier, alone, before they brought Keith Bennett to the moor.

   Hindley insisted Brady buried the spade but doesn’t explain how he managed to do so satisfactorily without the use of another implement; it would have needed to be buried deep to prevent its discovery. Shale, a sedimentary rock, isn’t particularly easy to dig into by hand.
