Brady: Moors murders ‘petty’ compared to political crimes

Moors murderer Ian Brady made his first public appearance in over 50 years, claiming his murder of five children was “petty” compared to the crimes committed by politicians.

Brady, 75, wants to go to prison so he is “free to end his life”, a mental health tribunal heard.

Brady wants to be judged sane so he can be transferred to prison from the maximum security Ashworth Hospital.
