SHOCKING REVELATION: The Secret Behind Ian Huntley’s Painful Death Exposed

During nearly a quarter of a century behind bars, Ian Huntley has been beaten, burned, stabbed and slashed. The attacks have seen him punched in the face, kicked in the head, doused in boiling water and sliced with razor blades – on one occasion his throat was slit, missing his jugular vein by millimetres.

The 52-year-old has also attempted to commit suicide numerous times, once requiring life-saving treatment after swallowing antidepressant tablets he had hoarded and hidden in teabags in his cell.

So the news that he is fighting for his life in hospital having once again been beaten to a bloody pulp comes as little surprise.

As he himself observed of his incarceration: ‘There is no safe place in prison.’

Because, while over the years his fellow prisoners come and go, one thing never changes – the target on the Soham killer’s back.
