Years ago he ran an orphanage attended by Spector, though then he was Peter Baldwin, later adopted by the Spectors, which was when his criminality began. The police arrest Katie at the hotel where Spector stays, after she has flushed evidence down the toilet. They also pick up Spector after he has been involved in an attempted abduction and shooting by James Tyler, whose wife left him after Spector counselled her. Sally Ann is also charged with perverting the course of justice by giving her husband an alibi on the night of the first murder. Stella is horrified to find that Spector has made a video of Rose Stagg begging him to release her and has him charged with murder and kidnap. Written by don @ minifie-1 See less
