Mark Hampson


MARK HAMPSON, the man convicted of killing 26-year-old shipping clerk Geraldine Palk in 1990, has died at Wakefield Prison following a long illness. Geraldine was raped and stabbed 81 times before her semi-naked body was found by a schoolboy in a stream near her home in Fairwater, Cardiff. The murderer also cut Miss Palk’s throat and crushed her skull with a blunt instrument.
Some 4,700 men were screened during the investigation, which was held when DNA testing was in its infancy, but no match was found.
More than a decade after the killing new DNA tracing technology led to Hampson’s arrest on suspicion of Geraldine’s murder. Hampson claimed they had consensual sex and that he had nothing to do with her death, but in November 2002 the jury at Bristol Crown Court unanimously found him guilty. He was jailed for life.
