A child-murderer recalls his crime; a psychiatrist discusses it.
In 1944 Sidney Smith , a soldier in the British Army, was sentenced to death in South Africa for assaulting and murdering an 11-year-old girl. He was reprieved and served over 20 years in prison before returning to a life of petty crime in Britain.
Shortly before his death he recorded the story of his crime and imprisonment for MERFYN TURNER, who discusses it with ARTHUR HYATT WILLIAMS , a psychiatrist who has made a special study of psychopathic murder.
