In May 1999 a scared 14 year old girl walked into a Hong Kong police station and told the confused officers that she was being terrorised by a ghost.

Episode 116 - Hannah Foster: Followed
17 oktober 2019 · 57 min
For weeks 17 year old Hannah Foster had been experiencing an uneasy feeling; she was sure that a strange man was following her. Lees meer
Terrifyingly, she wasn’t just imagining things...
And one night, when Hannah was just yards from her front door, she was abducted. 6 days later her body was found.
The stellar police investigation that followed quickly identified a suspect, but unbelievably he had already fled the UK and disappeared to India, a nation of over a billion people. Navigating racial tensions and cross nation cooperation meant that bringing Hannah’s killer to justice was not going to be an easy task.

Episode 115 - The Yuba 5
10 oktober 2019 · 51 min
In 1978, five men piled into a car after a local basketball game, they stopped at a shop to pick up some snacks and then they vanished. The next day their car was found on a mountain road, without a scratch, half a tank of petrol and in perfect running order. Why would the men have left the car and entered the freezing wilderness? Lees meer
It wasn’t until the summer that four of the men were found, well at least their bodies were...but the discoveries only deepened the mystery; one of the men was even found in a trailer, surrounded by food - but had seemingly starved to death.
To this day Gary Mathias, man number five, remains missing - leaving us asking the question what happened to the Yuba 5?

12 september 2019 · 47 min
On the 16th of April 1996 James Patterson Smith walked into Gorton police station and told officers that his 17 year old girlfriend had drowned in the bath.

So brutal was the crime that it was the first time in Manchester Crown Court that jurors were offered counselling, every single one accepted. Lees meer
