GUILTY UK - Vicky Hamilton, 15, Bathgate, Scotland, 10 Feb 1991

The schoolgirl’s face became one of the most recognisable in Scotland as police launched one of the biggest missing person investigations the country has ever seen.

The last sighting of the 15-year-old Redding youngster was at a bus stop across from Bathgate police station eating a bag of chips on February 10, 1991 as she waited for the bus back to Falkirk after visiting sister Sharon Brown in Livingston.

She never returned home to parents Michael and Janette who, along with her two sisters and brother, endured 16 years of not knowing what had happened to her – a state of unbearable uncertainty which ripped the family apart.

Janette didn’t live to see the body being found, or justice when her daughter’s murderer was convicted.

She passed away almost two years after Vicky went missing, desperately clinging to hope that she would be reunited with the youngster again.

Vicky's killer Peter Tobin was recently in the news.

Vicky Hamilton’s father said he hopes Peter Tobin really has had a stroke following the caged serial killer’s latest health scare.

Michael Hamilton, 65, admitted he was sceptical when told Tobin, 69, had been rushed to hospital yesterday after he was found collapsed in his cell.

Michael — who also had a stroke five years ago — added: “So long as I am on this Earth longer than him I will be happy.

“The best thing that he can do is to stop breathing. I just want him dead.

“I am not sorry that he is in the hospital. He’s an evil man.”
