Alun Kyte

Alun Kyte (born 1964 in Stafford, England) is a British convicted double murderer.

He claimed his first victim, 20-year-old Rowley Regis prostitute Samo Paull, in December 1993, abducting her from Balsall Heath, Birmingham, and dumping her body in Leicestershire.

Kyte committed his second murder in March 1994, when he picked up 30-year-old prostitute Tracey Turner from Hilton Park services on the M6 motorway near Wolverhampton and abandoned her body near the M1 motorway at Lutterworth.

He was arrested in December 1998 and found guilty on two murder charges at Nottingham Crown Court on 14 March 2000. He was sentenced to life imprisonment and remains behind bars as the 10th anniversary of his arrest approaches.

After his trial, it was revealed that Kyte was a suspect in six unsolved murders which took place between October 1990 and May 1994. However, he has not been charged with any of these crimes.
