Joanna Dennehy is a British serial Killer who murdered Lukasz Slaboszewski, Kevin Lee and John Chapman in and around Peterborough over a 10-day period in March 2013. She specifically targeted men during her killing spree, and said she did not want to kill a woman, especially not a woman with children. It was reported she had wanted to kill nine men in total, to be like notorious killers Bonnie and Clyde. Kevin Lee was a property developer, landlord and lover of Dennehy. He was killed on the 29th of March 2013, and his body found the next day. Dennehy dressed Lee's body in a black sequinned dress before dumping his corpse in a ditch near Newborough. Lukasz Slaboszewski and John Chapman were both housemates of Dennehy. Slaboszewski was killed on the 19th of March, and Chapman on the 29th March. They were both found on the 3rd of April with stab wounds. After the killings, Dennehy was driven by an accomplice, Gary Stretch, to Hereford where she stabbed two men, chosen separately and at random, both of whom survived. Both men were dog walkers. She stole the second's dog. Another man travelling in the car, unwillingly, was later cleared of any criminal involvement in the attacks. Her motives were purely for entertainment. Psychiatrists later diagnosed her with "psychopathic, anti-social and emotional instability disorders” While Dennehy was on remand before the trial, prison staff found an escape plot in her diary. This involved killing or seriously injuring a prison guard, cutting off one of the guard's fingers and using the amputated finger to fool the biometric system in the prison. Because of the plot, Dennehy was placed in solitary confinement. She received a life sentence and her accomplice, Gary Stretch was sentenced to life imprisonment with a recommended minimum term of 19 years. There’s an ITV documentary that reveals Dennehy has emotionally snared more men with handwritten letters sent from her cell at HMP Bronzefield in Surrey. According to the reporters, she has a lot of male admirers and one of them has even proposed to her.
