Raymond Gilmour

1981: Raymond Gilmour, charged with murder and sentenced to life imprisonment under Scottish law, after the violent assault and killing of 16-year old schoolgirl Pamela Hastie in Rannoch woods in Johnstone, Renfrewshire. Gilmour admitted to the crime, but was this just because he was a timid, eager-to-please lad? His description of the events did not even appear to match the evidence, but the police had a 100% clear-up rate which they did not want to break. And with a previous history as a flasher, Gilmour could have been an ideal candidate.
