The Capital Hill Murders – Episode 73

In 1998 a prisoner was released from jail after serving just 3 years for a violent rape. By 1999, at least 7 people had lost their lives in Capital Hill, Pretoria.

South African Serial Killer Samuel Sidyno was sentenced to seven life terms in August of 2000 for the killings of two women and five boys in 1998 and 1999.

Judge Johan van der Westhuizen said Sidyno, 35, was a dangerous man and it would be unwise to ever let him loose again. He recommended Sidyno serve at least 40 years of his sentence before being considered for parole.
