Ackland lived on the Southway housing estate in Plymouth, Devon. He was a guitarist and songwriter for the indie band Rakuda. Although most people thought him a normal person, he was privately obsessed with serial killers, [[Ted Bundy]] in particular. He had thousands of images of murder victims on his phone and searched for how serial killers disposed of the body online. | Ackland lived on the Southway housing estate in Plymouth, Devon.

On 20 November 2021, Ackland came across 18-year-old Bobbi-Anne McLeod at a bus stop. As she resembled girls he had dated in the past, he decided to make her his first victim. Ackland attacked McLeod with a claw hammer and beat her to the ground. He then attempted to leave, but as he left he turned round and saw McLeod moving. Realizing she was still alive, he dragged her into his car and drove her to the Dartmoor area, where he killed her before driving an additional 30 miles away and dumping her body. | On 20 November 2021, Ackland came across 18-year-old Bobbi-Anne McLeod at a bus stop.
