Title: Bertil Fox?
Post by: SweetDaddySiki on September 21, 2021, 06:26:51 AM
Any recent news on Bertil Fox? I know he's still in jail but didn't know if he's corresponded with anyone (ex - Rick Wayne) and if they've shared anything. I read on Wikipedia that he's 70 now and got life.

Besides deviant schmoes, who would want to correspond with him?

I wonder if Bertil killed more women than we know about. He killed 2 in the late 90’s. There might be more unsolved cases.

That was a mother/daughter combo he killed in a domestic dispute.  I doubt if he was a serial killer.  Probably not smart enough to get away with multiple killings anyway.

Brutal Bertil was a baker in Her Majesty's Prison (excerpt taken from a prison minister's blog) -

"The sermonettes that I preached at the remand's and convict's devotions was different each morning. That meant I preached some 360 different sermons. I can remember a senior inmate telling me, "Young man, you're amazing!" It was Mr. Bertil Fox. "Every single day you come with a NEW TOPIC and you do not repeat yourself." LOL. He's a baker and so I started getting some extra BREAD. LOLOLOLOLOL. It was FUN! Trust me. I take everything in life and make it FUN!"

That was actually a still from 'Bucky and Bert'(gif below) which was episode four of the St. Kitts tv series '6 Degrees of Incarceration' which examines links between inventors and prisoners of the Caribbean. I thought that's what you were referencing.

Worst defense ever. Claimed his girlfriend and he were wrestling over his gun and it "accidentally" went off and killed her. His girlfriend's mother then came out of the back room, saw her daughter shot and tried to wrestle the gun away from Bertil and it "accidentally" went off again and killed the mother. Accidental double homicide defense.
