Hi Les
A couple of references come to mind - News, Gender and Power ed by Carter,
Branston and Allan - in particular "A Family Affair: The British, Sex and the
Wests by Maggie Wykes. More stuff on the Wests in "No Angels: Women who
commit violence" ed Alice Myers and Sarah Wight.
Also there is an interesting chapter on the representation of Myra Hindley
in "Moving Targets: Women, Murder and Representation" ed Helen Birch.
Hope this helps.
Diana.
