Daughter of 'Shoe Fetish Killer' victim Wendy Speakes tells parole board 'release him and you'll have blood on your hands'

A woman whose mum was raped and murdered by a Leeds man dubbed the 'Shoe Fetish Killer' is trying to stop him being released from prison.

Christopher Farrow, now 61, tied up Wendy Speakes with stockings and forced her to wear blue mule shoes before he raped her and stabbed her to death in 1994. Wendy's body was tragically found at her home in Wakefield.

Police spent six years hunting for Farrow before he was eventually caught and jailed for life in 2000. He was also handed concurrent sentences for a rape, another serious sexual offence and attempted burglary.
