The Blood Pact: Danyal Hussein and the Murders of Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman
In June 2020, sisters Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman were stabbed to death by a stranger after a birthday picnic in Fryent Country Park, Wembley, and it was their own friends who found them, 36 hours later. A familial DNA match led police to 18-year-old Danyal Hussein, whose bedroom held a contract with a demon signed in his own blood, while the police watchdog found the Met's response to the missing sisters below standard and two officers guarding the scene were jailed for photographing their bodies.

In August 2007, 20-year-old Sophie Lancaster and her boyfriend Robert Maltby were attacked in Stubbylee Park, Bacup, by teenagers they had never met; the court heard the only motive was that the couple, both goths, looked different. Sophie died 13 days later, Brendan Harris and Ryan Herbert were jailed for life for her murder, and the judge called it a hate crime, years before Greater Manchester Police became the first force to record attacks on alternative subcultures that way.
