The next episode of Maxine will be airing tonight at 9pm on Channel 5, a drama that catalogues the Soham Murders through the eyes of school assistant Maxine Carr.<\/p>\n
She was Ian Huntley\u2019s girlfriend and after the bodies of his victims were discovered, Maxine covered for him by claiming she was with him that night.<\/p>\n
However, she was instead on a night out in Grimsby town centre, with photos of the booze-up exposing her deception.<\/p>\n
It led to Hunley\u2019s alibi crumbling, which subsequently saw him sentenced for his inhuman crimes.<\/p>\n
Here is the full story of the night out that led to Ian Huntley\u2019s imprisonment.<\/p>\n
What did Ian Huntley do?<\/h3>\n <\/p>\n
Ian Huntley is one of the UK\u2019s most notorious killers who carried out the murders of two school children back in 2002.<\/p>\n
He took the lives of schoolgirls and best friends Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, both 10 years old.<\/p>\n
Huntley knew the children through his fianc\u00e9e, Maxine Carr, who worked in their school as an assistant and ultimately provided him with a false alibi.<\/p>\n
Who was Maxine Carr?<\/h3>\n <\/p>\n
Carr was born in Grimsby, Lincolnshire in 1977 and went on to be an assistant at St Andrew's primary school.<\/p>\n
She took the position in the spring of 2002 but was jailed for giving false alibi for Huntley.<\/p>\n
The pair met in a nightclub in Grimsby in 1999 and according to Carr, she was \u201cinstantly attracted\u201d to his confident persona.<\/p>\n
They started dating and in 2001, Huntley took on a new job in Soham Village Cottage and moved into a home that came with the job.<\/p>\n
Carr moved with him and took on her teaching assistant position in the local school.<\/p>\n
What happened during the Grimsby night out?<\/h3>\n Following Huntley\u2019s murders, Carr told police she was with him on the night the two girls disappeared.<\/p>\n
Thirteen days went by before the girls' bodies were eventually found, and over the course of that nearly two-week period, Carr doubled down on her lie that she was with Huntley.<\/p>\n
Because of this, police ruled out Huntley as a suspect at first, with Carr even saying to the press at the time: "I only wish we had asked them where they were going … if only we knew then what we know. Then we could have stopped them or done something about it."<\/p>\n

The truth is that Carr wasn\u2019t with him, nor was she in Soham at all.<\/p>\n
She was in fact in a nightclub in Grimsby, over 100 miles away, when the abhorrent crimes were committed.<\/p>\n
Carr was pictured kissing another man in a pub called The Exchange, a 17-year-old rugby player who was eight years younger than her.<\/p>\n
Police soon discovered this, as local residents recognised them through TV interviews.<\/p>\n
She was staying with her mother during the weekend, texting Huntley saying: "Don't make me feel bad that I am with my family."<\/p>\n

The teenager she was with said in an interview: "I only met her once, when I was on a night out.<\/p>\n
"Me and my mates had a \u00a320 bet on who could get off with the ugliest girl. We started off in the Parity where she slid in on one of our photos.<\/p>\n
"We then went to The Exchange and that is where I kissed her."<\/p>\n
He added: "Carr asked me back to her place while we were at the back door of The Exchange.<\/p>\n
"There was no point in going around town because she would only follow. I only managed to get away from her in The Exchange by dancing around the poles."<\/p>\n
When the truth was revealed, Carr was eventually jailed and served 21 months for preventing the course of justice.<\/p>\n
She was given a new identity since her release and it is has cost the taxpayer \u00a32.5million to give her a new life and police protection.<\/p>\n
