Lydia Galladan, aged 26, would never have been caught if police had not at first suspected Augusto Pineda of that horrendous mass murder.

After days of interrogation, he told police of her existence. She confessed within minutes of their arrival on her doorstep. It had taken the murder of Bella and her two small children to make Lydia realise she would never win back the love of Augusto.

At the Old Bailey on 9 May 1983, Lydia Galladan was found guilty of murdering Bella Pineda, aged 35. She was cleared of murdering the two children, but found guilty of their manslaughter.

Galladan told the court, ‘I am sincerely sorry for the harm I have caused and I deeply regret the shame I have brought my parents and my vocation.’

Judge David Tudor Price told her, ‘I believe the deaths of the children will hang very heavily on your conscience.’ But she showed little remorse for her murder of Bella Pineda.

Augusto Pineda, aged 35, returned to the Philippines shortly after the case to try and start his life all over again. ‘It started off as an innocent love affair. I know it was wrong but in my wildest dreams I never imagined it would end like this,’ he said after the case.
