A new Amazon Prime documentary on the crimes of the 'Teacup Poisoner' Graham Young, who murdered two people in Hertfordshire, has been released.
Murder in a Teacup was released by the popular streaming service February 19, and focuses on the murders committed by serial killer Young at the John Hadland Laboratories in Bovingdon in 1971.
He murdered 59-year-old Bob Egle, a storeroom manager at Hadland, and Fred Biggs, a 56-year-old local councillor and part-time employee by poisoning their tea.
After suspicions about Young began to rise, he was on November 20, 1971, asking "which one is it you're doing me for?" as he was led away.
Officers found poisons in his bedsit as well a rather incriminating diary in which he noted the doses given to his victims, their effects, and whether he was going to allow each person to live or die.
