Peter Moore

In the autumn of 1995, North Wales became the hunting ground of a man no one suspected.

Peter Moore was a cinema manager. A local businessman. A familiar face dressed almost always in black. Between September and December, four men — Henry Roberts, Edward Carthy, Keith Randles, and Anthony Davies — were murdered in isolated locations across Anglesey and Denbighshire.

In this episode of What They Hide: Hidden Crimes in Plain Sight, we take a deep, fact-based dive into the investigation that led to Moore’s arrest, his Christmas Eve confession, the dramatic courtroom battle where he blamed a mysterious figure known only as “Jason,” and the whole-life sentence that followed.

We also explore the haunting legal legacy of his case — and the disturbing truth at its core:

Sometimes the most dangerous predators don’t hide in the shadows.

They stand in plain sight.

Listener discretion advised. This episode contains discussion of murder and violent crime.
