	Harold Shipman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Harold Frederick Shipman (14 January 1946 – 13 January 2004) was a British general practitioner who was the most prolific known serial killer in the history of Britain (and possibly the world).
		Shipman was born in Nottingham, the second of three children, and was known as Fred or Freddy to his family.
		Shipman's motive for suicide was not established, although he had reportedly told his probation officer that he was considering suicide so that his widow could receive a National Health Service pension and lump sum, even though he had been stripped of his own pension.
