along
with
Lewes
other
investigators,
found
the
remains
of
Miranda
and
Marian
and
the
preserved
Molly,
Mables
body
is
missing,
along
with
the
many
others
Clegg
took
and
preserved.
As
Clegg
found
that
his
victims
were
best
killed
and
preserved
soon
after
he
took
them
so
that
their
appearances
did
not
change,
his
rate
of
killing
must
have
increased
logistically.
Over
the
five-year
period
between
Mirandas
kidnapping
and
Cleggs
capture,
I
would
estimate
that
Clegg
killed
approximately
twenty-five
to
thirty
young
women.
Although
this
series
of
interview
was
accepted
to
Clegg
upon
his
understanding
that
if
he
was
helpful
his
life
sentence
might
be
reduced,
I
highly
suggest
that
he
be
given
no
such
privilege.
His
responses
clearly
show
that
he
plans
to
kill
again
if
he
were
to
leave
prison,
at
least
at
this
point
in
time.
While
he
is
asked
outright
how
many
prisoners
he
kept,
Clegg
never
answers
the
question;
he
evades
it.
He
speaks
about
Miranda,
Marian,
and
Molly
and
then
mentions
six
more,
whose
names
he
claims
he
doesnt
know.
I
believe
Clegg
is
telling
the
truth
as
well
in
this
instance,
as
his
progression
into
deeper
and
darker
acts
follows
his
progression
in
dehumanizing
his
victims
through
acts
such
as
preserving
them.
Such
dehumanization
would
likely
be
facilitated
by
a
lack
of
caring
for
names;
fairly
early
on,
he
throws
away
his
role
as
Ferdinand.
Cleggs
comments
earlier
this
year
at
his
trial
concerning
the
remains
of
his
cousin
Mabel
left
much
unknown;
the
court
knew
Mabel
was
crippled
and
Clegg
believed
she
should
be
killed,
but
we
did
not
know
that
she
and
her
mother
had
been
too
much
of
an
inconvenience
for
Clegg,
and
that
this
inconvenience
was
what
prompted
him
to
murder
them.
The
fact
that
Clegg
did
not
preserve
them
because
they
were
not
perfect
is
an
interesting
new
piece
of
information
that
further
adds
to
the
idea
of
Clegg
as
a
psychopath
who
dehumanized
his
victims.
To
him,
not
only
did
Mabel
and
her
mother
not
deserve
to
live,
but
they
also
did
not
even
deserve
to
be
kept
by
him.
Still,
we
do
not
know
how
many
he
killed
after
Mabel
and
her
mother,
and,
for
now,
Clegg
seems
to
enjoy
feeling
duping
delight
more
than
the
shock
he
will
inevitably
see
on
Parkers
face
when
he
reveals
this
information.
I
use
words
such
as
will
and
when
because
I
believe
that,
with
further
interview,
Clegg
will
certainly
talk
about
his
other
victims,
and
I
urge
Officer
Parker
to
continue
to
pull
the
story
out
of
him,
as
it
could
prove
very
useful
in
analyzing
other
cases.
