The Girl in the Box: The Kidnapping of Stephanie Slater part two airs tonight, March 1, at 9pm on Channel 5. 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.a b "The Michael Sams Trial: Kidnapper who killed teenager is jailed for life".
