Arrogant boast of Sixth Commandment’s Ben Field after he murdered Peter Farquhar

Field admitting he had deceived former teacher Peter Farquhar along with string of reprehensible actions in the hoped of getting away with murder – even boasting about planning to ‘get away with mot of it’ within earshot of police

Twisted killer Benjamin Field made an arrogant boast in the back of a police van after being arrested for murdering Peter Farquhar.

Field’s defence relied upon admitting a string of reprehensible things and by doing so he hoped to get off with his most heinous crime – the murder of former Manchester Grammar School teacher Peter. The arrogant and cruel killer admitted as much himself. “I think I will get away with most of it,” while sat in the back of a police van awaiting his fate.

Current BBC series The Sixth Commandment has dramatised the story of killer Benjamin Field, and the older people he targeted in the village of Maids Moreton, Buckinghamshire. It was a case that devastated those who knew him in this city – where Peter Farquar became loved as an inspirational teacher, mentor and friend.

Mr Farquhar came to teach English at Manchester Grammar School aged 24 in the early 70s, after attending Latymer Upper School in London and Churchill College, Cambridge. He stayed for more than decade, living first in a bedsit in Withington and later in Heaton Moor, reports the Manchester Evening News.
