Editing Ian Brady (section)

==Arrest and Imprisonment==
As a result of Smith's actions, Brady and Hindley were swiftly arrested soon afterwards.

<p align="justify" data-iceapc="1" data-iceapw="56">On 6 May 1966, Brady was found guilty on three counts of murder and sentenced to three terms of life imprisonment. Hindley was found guilty of murdering Lesley Ann Downey and Edward Evans and given two life sentences; she also received a concurrent seven-year sentence for harbouring Brady in connection with the murder of John Kilbride.</p>

<p align="justify" data-iceapc="1" data-iceapw="75">The key evidence against the couple included the tape recordings of Downey's made while they photographed her naked; the name of John Kilbride in a notebook; and a photograph of Hindley standing on top of the shallow grave where Kilbride was buried. Brady immediately admitted the murder of Edward Evans, but adamantly insisted that Hindley had no part in it. Brady finally confessed to the murders of Pauline Reade and Keith Bennett in November 1986.</p>
