The World's End Murders is the colloquial name given to the murder of two girls, Christine Eadie, 17, and Helen Scott, 17, in Edinburgh, in October 1977. The case is so named because both victims were last seen alive leaving The World's End pub in Edinburgh's Old Town. The only person to stand trial accused of the murders, Angus Sinclair, was acquitted in 2007 in controversial circumstances. Following the amendment of the law of double jeopardy, which would have prevented his retrial, Sinclair was retried in October 2014 and convicted of both murders on 14 November 2014. He was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 37 years, the longest sentence by a Scottish court, meaning he would have been 106 years old when he was eligible for a potential release on parole. He died at H

  • De World's End-moorden is de veelgebruikte naam voor de moord op twee meisjes, Christine Eadie, 17, en Helen Scott, 17, in Edinburgh, in oktober 1977. De zaak wordt zo genoemd, omdat beide slachtoffers voor het laatst levend zijn gezien toen zij de pub The World's End in Edinburghs verlieten. De enige persoon die als verdachte van de moorden terechtstond, Angus Sinclair, werd in 2007 onder dubieuze omstandigheden vrijgesproken. Na een wijziging van de wet over double jeopardy (dubbele vervolging voor hetzelfde strafbare feit) die een nieuw proces zou hebben verhinderd, werd Sinclair in oktober 2014 opnieuw aangeklaagd. Op 14 november 2014 werd hij voor beide moorden veroordeeld tot levenslang met een minimum van 37 jaar, de langste straf die door een Schotse rechter is opgelegd. Dit betek (nl)
  • Убийство двух девушек - Кристины Иди (17 лет) и Хелен Скотт (17 лет), произошло в Эдинбурге в октябре 1977 года. Обеих жертв в последний раз видели живыми, когда они уходили из паба «World’s End» в Старом городе. Единственный человек, который предстал перед судом по обвинению в их убийстве - Ангус Синклер, был оправдан в 2007 году при спорных обстоятельствах. Синклера описывали как наихудшего серийного убийцу Шотландии. Предполагается, что кроме девушек Иди и Скотт, он убил ещё четырёх женщин, всех за семимесячный период. (ru)
