Murder of Sophie Hook

Sophie Louise Hook (27 May 1988 — 30 July 1995) was a 7-year-old British child who was murdered in Llandudno, Wales in the early hours of 30 July 1995. She was from Great Budworth, near Northwich, Cheshire, but was staying at the Llandudno home of her uncle.〔 〕 She had been abducted from a tent by local man Howard Hughes while she camped out in a relative's garden.〔 〕 In July 1996 Hughes was sentenced to life imprisonment for the double rape and murder of Sophie. Following his trial, it was revealed that Hughes had been linked to multiple sex attacks against children but police had been unable to prosecute either because of a lack of evidence or because the victims' parents had wanted to spare their children further ordeal in court.〔 〕〔 〕 As Hughes was sentenced, Mr Justice Richard Curtis said: "You are a fiend. Your crime is every parent's worst nightmare come to pass... No girl is, or ever will be, safe from you. My recommendation in view of your appalling crime and the maximum danger you pose to girls, is that you are never, ever released."〔〔 〕 In November 2002 Home Secretary David Blunkett set Hughes' minimum term at 50 years.〔 〕

Howard Hughes (born 9 June 1965) was born in Llandudno, Wales, to Gerald and Renee Hughes. He had three older sisters and his father was a "well-respected" civil engineer and businessman operating a successful contracting and quarrying firm.〔〔〔 〕 Hughes was born with the sex chromosome abnormality XYY syndrome which caused him to grow at an increased velocity, attaining 6 foot (1.829 metres) by the age of 11, and 6 foot 8 inches (2.032 metres) by adulthood. He also had behavioural problems, learning disabilities and dyslexia.〔〔
Hughes's father paid for him to attend private schools "in the hope that they would be able to do something with him" due to his often violent behavior.〔 When Hughes was rejected after just two terms by Lindisfarne College at Wynnstay, Wrexham, his father unsuccessfully offered to pay double the normal fees if they would keep him as a pupil.〔 In 1975, aged ten, Hughes was sent to Bank Hall, a residential school for educationally subnormal children, in Chapel-en-le-Frith, Derbyshire.〔〔 In 1979 he transferred to Woodlands private school in Deganwy, Wales. Despite his parents paying for extra private tuition Hughes failed to gain any qualifications.〔 In 1981 he took a seven-year-old boy into a derelict house where he "exposed himself and made indecent suggestions" before attempting to strangle his victim.〔 〕〔 〕 The boy later recalled: "He picked me off the ground and threw me down, he was a very strong man. He wound up astride me with both hands around my neck." The boy pretended to be dead until Hughes left.〔 Hughes was convicted of assaulting the boy, placed under a two-year mental health supervision order, and committed under the Mental Health Act to St Andrew's psychiatric hospital, Northampton, followed by Garth Angharad Hospital in Dolgellau, a facility for the treatment of mentally abnormal offenders.〔〔 〕 On release, Hughes returned to live with his mother, recently separated from his father, in Colwyn Bay, Wales.〔
By the age of 19 Hughes had 17 convictions for assault, burglary, theft, criminal damage, threatening behaviour, motoring offences and possession of weapons.〔 He received two custodial sentences before 1995: As a teenager he served three months in a youth detention centre for the motoring offences. Some time after 1986 he served seven months in an adult prison for theft.〔 〕 Hughes had been accused of indecently assaulting girls aged three, five and nine; police revealed that, during the three years preceding the murder of Sophie Hook, they had interviewed him in connection with five allegations "brought by, or on behalf of, children."〔 In one case, in 1986, the child's parents stopped the case to spare their daughter the ordeal of giving evidence. In the other cases, the charges were dropped by the Crown Prosecution Service "because the victims were so young and could not have given reliable evidence."〔
