The pair preyed on Edinburgh’s poorest communities who were less likely to be missed or recognized. In total Burke and Hare are said to have
murdered at least 16 people for between seven to ten pounds apiece, although the real total is likely to be a great deal higher.

Burke and Hare• It was important not to make any bruises on the
body; if bruises were present, Burke and Hare would not receive a fair amount of money for the body.
• They killed a known-prostitute; this act of murder led them to being caught.
• Burke’s body was then sold to the medical school where his skin was made into a series of notebooks that are still in circulation today.

One good thing…• The Burke and Hare murders led to the Anatomy
Act 1832 which allowed doctors, anatomy lecturers, and medical students greater access to cadavers and allowed for the legal donation of bodies to medical science, effectively calling an end to the illegal body-snatcher trade.
