Fred West, who died in 1995, is believed to have murdered at least 12 young women between 1967 and 1987. Most of the murders were committed with his second wife, Rose West, who remains in prison to this day.
Produced by Blink Films, the series is directed by Dan Dewsbury, known for Louis Theroux’s Forbidden America. “Making this series has been a huge undertaking for our team,” said Dewsbury. “Getting access to never before seen video, never before heard tapes, access to people who have never previously spoken about the case, whilst also balancing the sensitivities of the families, after decades of quiet heartbreak and strength, has been inspiring to be part of. We have huge respect for the police investigation which led to Fred and Rose West being held responsible for the crimes.”
Fred & Rose West: A British Horror Story premieres May 14 on Netflix.
