"There was no intention whatsoever to keep her alive."Despite this, he still demanded £140,000 from Julie’s mum, and was able to dodge police when they agreed to hand over the momentous sum, hanging up the phone before the drop-off point was determined.Sams first kidnapped Julie when he drove to Chapeltown to find a random victim, in practice for another kidnap.Julie was unlucky enough to be his guinea pig, and told Sams it was her 'first night' working the streets.While Julie was leaning to take her shoes off, Sams slipped a rope around her neck.He told Detective Chief Superintendent Bob Taylor in a secretly recorded conversation: "She were bending down and obviously she couldn't move and I was saying, 'You can't scream.' "I mean, she did do little screams.

I had the rope already round her neck and I pulled it and she couldn't move."He added: "She was frightened of me. She was terrified.

She's the first person in my life that's ever been frightened of me."Sams strangled Julie, and her remains were discovered on a farm near Grantham in Lincolnshire 10 days after she first went missing.It was six months before Sams stuck again.

On January 22 1992, Sams kidnapped estate agent Stephanie during a property viewing in Birmingham.Sams tied her up and drove her to the same workshop where Julie had.
