Sharon Carr

Sharon Louise Carr (born 1979), also known as "The Devil's Daughter", is a Belizean woman who, in June 1992, aged 12, murdered 18-year-old Katie Rackliff at random as the latter shared a taxi from a nightclub in Camberley, Surrey, England. The murder initially went unsolved until June 1994, when Carr attacked and stabbed another pupil at Collingwood College Comprehensive School for no apparent reason and then repeatedly boasted about the murder of Rackliff to friends and family and in her diary entries made in prison. She was convicted of the murder in 1997, attracting much media interest owing to her young age and the brutality of the killing. She was ordered to serve at least 14 years' imprisonment but has remained imprisoned long after this minimum tariff expired owing to her disruptive behaviour in prison. A restricted status prisoner, she has continued regularly to attack and attempt to kill staff members and fellow inmates and has regularly expressed her desire to kill others.
