Anne Perry speaks out

The HoS reports:

A woman better known as the teenager helped her friend bludgeon her mother to death and whose actions were portrayed in the film Heavenly Creatures says her new life has helped her to forgive herself.

Crime novelist – formerly Juliet Hulme – has started to speak to New Zealand for the first time in almost 60 years about her role in the murder of her best friend's mother, Honora Rieper.

She is being interviewed on tonight by Guyon Espiner. Her first ever TV interview I think.

It was an awful thing she did, but from all accounts it has been an awful burden to bear also – both Parker and Hulme seemed to have led blameless lives since, but ones full of remorse.
