The Tragic Celebration Turns into a Nightmare
Amid the UK's lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, social worker Bieber Henry organizes a sunset picnic at Bryant Country Park to celebrate her 46th birthday with her sister, Nicole Smallman. The joyful gathering with friends turns into horror when the sisters are found brutally murdered the following day. The park, once a scene of laughter and celebration, becomes a crime scene that shocks the community.
The Disrespectful Actions of Police Officers
After the sisters' bodies are discovered, police officers tasked with guarding the crime scene engage in gross misconduct. Constables Jamie Lewis and Dennis Jaffa breach protocols, taking disturbing pictures, making inappropriate jokes, and sharing disrespectful comments about the victims online. Their actions further traumatize the grieving family and tarnish the trust in the police force.

As investigations progress, DNA evidence leads to the arrest of a suspect, Daniel Hussein, related to a previously cautioned individual. Footage reveals Hussein's unsettling purchases of knives and other items before the murders, linking him to the crime scene. The case highlights systemic issues of racism and negligence in the police force, adding layers of pain to an already tragic loss.
