auto erotic asphyxiation or a consensual sex game gone wrong so they didn’t connect his death with the murder of Peter Walker.
    (Consensual gay sadomasochistic sex tends to be more severe than consensual heterosexual sadomasochistic sex so the police didn’t associate the man’s burns with a criminal act.) The third murder
    Only six days passed before Colin Ireland returned to the BDSM pub. This time he met up with Perry Bradley III, a sales director from Texas. The two returned to Bradley’s flat in Kensington but he initially refused to be tied up as he was aware that there was a bondage killer on the loose. The two men enjoyed a meal together and a couple of drinks and Mr Bradley suggested they have vanilla sex. Colin Ireland demurred, explaining that he could only get off on BDSM, so the businessman eventually agreed.

    Colin Ireland
    When he was trussed up on the bed, Ireland said that he only wanted the PIN number of his bank card. Perry offered to go with him and withdraw the cash, but Colin said that he didn’t want to be seen acting suspiciously in the early hours of the morning.
    The businessman gave the criminal the number and tried to be as helpful as possible in a desperate attempt to save his own life.
    Colin Ireland waited until the man was asleep – or pretending to be – then strangled him with a rope, enjoying his terrified struggles. Afterwards he put a doll on the body because he hoped this would demean his victim further. Again he spent the night with the corpse and left the following day.
    The fourth murder
    The need to kill was accelerating, so Ireland returned to the Coleherne on 7 June and chatted up 33-year-old Andrew Collier, the warden of a sheltered housing complex. They returned to his flat in Dalston and were having a drink when there was an altercation in the street. Both men hurried to the window – and Colin Ireland unwittingly left his fingerprint on the window sill.
    The men then went over to the bed and Ireland handcuffed Andrew Collier’s wrists and bound him to the bed. Eventually he strangled him with a rope. He then went through the man’s wallet looking for cash, only to find a card stating that he was HIV positive, Ireland’s second such victim. Enraged, he singed part of the corpse with his lighter, and, determined to wreak further havoc, strangled the man’s cat. He put its mouth around Collier’s condom-clad penis and put its condom-clad tail in Collier’s mouth. Remaining with the bizarrely-posed body for the next few hours, he left in the morning, taking away the crockery he’d used.
    In the days which followed, he boasted to acquaintances that he’d be famous one day, that he’d done something remarkable.

    SADISTIC KILLERS
    But he’d lied about being in the Foreign Legion so they didn’t pay much attention to his boasts.
    He also phoned Kensington police and anonymously admitted all four killings and warned them he’d kill another man. Shortly afterward he phoned Battersea police station and asked them if they were still investigating Peter Walker’s death. In his own mind Ireland was now a powerful figure – but to the rest of the world he was a twice-divorced, unemployed and uncharismatic man.
    The fth murder
    Back for a fifth time to the Coleherne on 12 June, Ireland picked up 41-year-old Emanuel Spiteri. He’d been born in Malta but now worked in London as a chef. Ireland himself had been a chef ’s assistant and this made it easy for the men to find common ground. Mr Spiteri lived in Hither Green so they had to travel via Charing Cross Station. Unknown to Ireland, they were caught on the security camera there.
    Back at Emanuel Spiteri’s flat, Colin Ireland bound him and tortured him, but he refused to reveal his PIN number. Ireland eventually strangled him with a nylon rope. He set fire to the bedroom before he left, but the flames
