Colin Ireland (born March 16, 1954) is a British serial killer known as the “Gay Slayer” and the “Fairy Liquidator” because he specifically murdered gay men. He killed a total of five men.
Ireland, a former soldier who had picked up convictions for burglary and robbery in his twenties, decided to become a serial killer as a New Year resolution at the beginning of 1993. That year, while living in Southend, he started frequenting The Coleherne pub, a gay pub in west London. Ireland claimed to be heterosexual — he had been married — and that he pretended to be gay only to befriend potential vicitms. It is unknown whether Ireland’s murders were sexually motivated.
