Summary

Since it was never likely that Dart's ransom would be paid, it has been suggested that Sams always intended to kill her. Paul Britton, a clinical psychologist who advised the detectives who interviewed Sams, argued that he abducted a prostitute because it would be relatively easy and was good "practice". It would also not create too much of "a stir". [7] By killing Dart, and leaving her body where it would easily be found, Sams would "convince the police that he was to be regarded as a serious adversary" and intimidate his next victims into paying up. [7] [8] McGredy-Hunt, however, said that Sams continued to demand ransom for several days after Dart's death, only dumping her body (initially hidden in a wheelie bin) after the smell of decomposition became difficult to conceal. She was held for eight days and allowed out of the coffin for food. Hoping to increase her chances of survival by "humanising" herself, she would use those breaks to chat to Sams.

After her release, Slater had originally not disclosed the rape. She later said that this was to spare her mother, who had a heart condition, from unnecessary further anguish. [13] Sams denied raping Slater, asserting, "I cannot allow this to go unchallenged". He made the unsubstantiated claim that they had a consensual affair [13] and attempted to sue Slater for libel, [14] [5] but lost the case. [15] Slater has also discussed the rape in a Crimes That Shook Britain documentary about the case, in which she also states that Sams later requested to have further sex with her, but this time relented after Slater refused. [16] Unable to return to work at the estate agency, Stephanie moved to the Isle of Wight in 1993. She later offered her advice to police forces who were dealing with kidnapping survivors. In a tribute last night, her pal Stacey Kettner said: “It took him 25 years but Michael Sams finally killed my best friend Stephanie Slater.
