Unlike his partner in crime, Myra Hindley - who never gave up her hopes of freedom - Ian Brady is, APPARENTLY, resigned to dying
in incarceration.
Accordingly ... Brady has appealed to a Mental Health Tribunal for transfer from a Secure Unit at Ashworth Psychiatric Hospital on Merseyside, to an ordinary prison - where he feels he can choose to end his own life without staff intervention aborting his frequent efforts to do so.
Currently, the 75-yr-old is being kept alive at Ashworth by being force-fed through tubes ... in spite of his repeated attempts to go on hunger strike.
Let's hope andthat, should his plea be successful, he keeps his promise and finally manages to "top"
himself ...
... in WHATEVER manner he decides.

's surely a soft option compared to the normal prison regime where far more opportunities undoubtedly exist for his "death wish" being granted ... either at his own hands OR, as a consequence of staff "turning a blind eye" to the many inmates only too willing to oblige.
