Today’s true crime case is about Ben Field who is one of the most heartless, calculating and manipulative people I have covered on this channel. In 2011 Field befriended a lonely man called Peter Farquhar who gay and deeply religious so had chosen to remain celibate for all of his life. However, as he entered his twilight years, he was increasingly scared of spending his old age alone. Field professed his love for Peter and wormed his way into his life using this man’s fears against him. Over the next 4 years Field manipulated, abused and gaslit Peter. On at least 50 occasion Field drugged Peter in his own words “for no other reason other than it was cruel, to upset and torment Peter - purely out of meanness". This turned a former university lecturer into a shell of his former self, a man who was terrified he was losing his mind. Money was a big motivator to Field but not as important to him as exerting power over Peter and he filmed Peter in his confused drugged state for his own amusement. Eventually, Field tired of Peter and, in October 2015 plied him with alcohol and suffocated him. Field then immediately began seducing a vulnerable lonely 81 year old neighbour of Peter’s called Ann Moore-Martin who he also manipulated for her money and who he may also have murdered. He drew up a list of 100 potential victims who he was working his way through. Ben Field was eventually convicted for his role in the death of Peter Farquhar and received one of the longest sentences for a single count of murder in UK criminal history. This was to reflect the absolute inhumanity and calculation of this psychopathic killer who was clearly working his way to becoming a serial killer. However, as we will discuss, it is possible he had already achieved this.
