Between 1978 and 1983, Dennis Nilson murdered at least 12 young men and boys in two apartments in North London. Nilson would lure his victims with alcohol and food. Once the victims drank themselves into a stupor, Nilson would strangle them to unconsciousness or death. If the victim lay unconscious, Nilson would drown them in his bathtub. He would dress the bodies and cuddle with them, as if they were still alive. He then masturbated over them before discarding them under his floorboards. He would keep several bodies for weeks before dissecting them and disposing of them, either by burning them in a bonfire or flushing them down the toilet. On February 10, 1983, after making a complaint that his pipes were clogging, plumbers discovered what appeared to be human flesh stuck in the pipes of the flat. The police were contacted and Nilson confessed without hesitation. Nilson was tried for six counts of murder and two counts of attempted murder. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. He died on an aortic aneurysm on May 12, 2018.
