John Thomas Straffen (27 February 1930 – 19 November 2007) was a British serial killer who was the longest-serving prisoner in British history. After killing two young girls in the summer of 1951, he was found unfit to plead at trial and committed to Broadmoor Hospital. During a brief escape in 1952, he killed again. This time, Straffen was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. Reprieved because of his mental state, he had his sentence commuted to life imprisonment. Straffen remained in prison until his death after 55 years, 3 months, and 26 days of incarceration.

  • John Thomas Straffen (ur. 27 lutego 1930 w Hampshire, zm. 19 listopada 2007 w więzieniu Frankland) – brytyjski seryjny morderca, najdłużej odbywający karę więzień w historii Wielkiej Brytanii. 9 sierpnia 1951 roku został aresztowany pod zarzutem zamordowania 9-letniej Cicely Batstone. Wkrótce został też oskarżony o zamordowanie 6-letniej Brendy Goddard. 29 kwietnia 1952 roku uciekł z szpitala psychiatrycznego, gdzie został osadzony i zamordował 5-letnią Linde Bowyer. Za to morderstwo został skazany na karę śmierci. Do egzekucji nie doszło, gdyż wkrótce został uznany za niepoczytalnego i ułaskawiony. Nie wrócił jednak do szpitala psychiatrycznego, lecz został umieszczony w więzieniu, gdzie spędził 55 lat. Jego pobyt w więzieniu został tak skomentowany przez autora kryminałów Jonathana Goodm (pl)
