A former police officer-turned crime investigations guru will headline a show in Ayrshire later this year looking into the minds of murderers.

David Swindle spent over 34 years in police service, mostly within the Criminal Investigation Department (CID).

His time included forming 'Operation Anagram' to investigate serial killer Peter Tobin’s involvement in other crimes.

Now, he's bringing his expertise to Ayrshire later this year, to delve into the minds of murderers.

'The Makings of a Murderer' will show at Kilmarnock's Palace Theatre on Friday, September 15 at 7.30pm.

True Crime fans will enjoy a chilling, thrilling night with David Swindle, as he shares his unique insight into the minds of murderers, the famous cases that were never solved and how the murderers got away with it.

“Serial killers are cunning, conniving, controlling, careful and – I hate to say it – clever,” says David.
