The Murder of Ellie Butler Pt. 2: Tragedy Strikes

The Murder of Ellie Butler Pt. 2: Tragedy Strikes

In the season 3 special of British Murders, I tell the tragic story of the preventable death of 6-year-old Ellie May Butler.⁣


In February 2007, when she was just 6 weeks old, Ellie was rushed to hospital with retinal haemorrhages, a subdural haemorrhage and swelling on the brain.⁣


Her father, Ben Butler, was arrested and Ellie ⁣went to live with her maternal grandparents for the next 5 years.⁣


In November 2012, Ellie was ordered back into the custody of her birth parents by High Court Judge Mary Hogg.⁣


On October 28, 2013, less than a year later, Ellie was murdered at home by her father.⁣


In this second episode of the 2 part special, we'll be focusing on the events leading up to Ellie’s death.⁣
