UK True Crime Podcast

The episode this week, like all the best UK tv mysteries, begins with a dead body in a country house. On the table beside the body was a glass of sherry, which stood untouched.  With no disturbance, it looked like the dead man had let the murderer into his home. Throw in a Baron, fraud, missing gold bars, the Knights of the Round Table, a dispute with an ex-wife and you can see there is lots of explore in this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast.SponsorSponsored by WoogaPlease download the excellent June's Journey here: woo.ga/znjlhReferenced siteswww.uktruecrime.comwww.patreon.com/uktruecrimehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimeSourceshttps://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.obituaries/Dg6U7kLmlSUhttps://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1989-08-03-8901010846-story.htmlhttps://books.google.co.uk/books?id=SZeFTLPGtigC&pg=PT115&lpg=PT115&dq=Simon+Dale+leintwardine&source=bl&ots=iAOgdTuG9G&sig=zV_JFdF3gn5fK0Hae09nlz80EhM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjtkNS8lfXMAhVnKMAKHb0XBFAQ6AEIQjAG#v=onepage&q=Simon%20Dale%20leintwardine&f=falsehttps://www.worcesternews.co.uk/news/7504437.riddle-of-the-recluse-who-searched-for-camelot-but-found-only-death-instead/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Simon_Dalehttps://www.shropshirestar.com/news/2007/09/14/murder-at-the-mansion/ Hosted on Acast.

Dean and Kirby were friends from a very early age and became a couple in their 20's. But life was difficult: drugs, mental health struggles and a lack of money meant their lives were tough.

It was in August 1974, that the first members of the IRA Active Service Unit later named 'The Balcombe Street Gang' touched down in Heathrow. Between October 1974 and December 1975, they carried out at least 40 bomb and gun attacks in and around London, leading to one description of them as 'the most violent, ruthless and highly trained unit ever sent to Britain by the Provisional IRA.In the concluding episode of this two-part story, we continue to tell the stories of those who were the victims of this gang, until their capture in December 1975.SponsorSponsored by WoogaPlease download the excellent June's Journey here: woo.ga/znjlhReferenced siteswww.uktruecrime.comwww.patreon.com/uktruecrimehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimeSourceshttps://mojoscotland.org/woolwich-pub-bombing-no-inquests-mean-deaths-brushed-over/?fbclid=IwAR0yIWWXt6r45il6Hzdi_pqreDOmhWmuILBNtXJPc8fiHJR5_625X8EgOzshttp://www.theonlinebookcompany.com/OnlineBooks/greenwich/Celebrations/TributePages/6https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=sdYcw7Zs3W4C&pg=PA521&lpg=PA521&dq=stephen+tibble+shot+by+ira+balcombe+street+gang&source=bl&ots=OPkoGGrXwn&sig=ACfU3U1__l-nBUxLmrB1dgPtGkqpRPMIow&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiDgKqXgtzqAhXDUBUIHbY1DWE4HhDoATAJegQIChAB#v=onepage&q=stephen%20tibble%20shot%20by%20ira%20balcombe%20street%20gang&f=falsehttp://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/low/dates/stories/october/9/newsid_2531000/2531191.stmhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Hamilton_Fairleyhttps://books.google.co.uk/books?id=sdYcw7Zs3W4C&pg=PA574&lpg=PA574&dq=%22grace+lodhuis%22&source=bl&ots=OOfjJKpUyi&sig=Ws1ZFq6qcmvugLzoL5Og3W54J9U&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCEQ6AEwAGoVChMI7u7OouDGxwIVy1YaCh266g6v#v=onepage&q=%22grace%20lodhuis%22&f=falsehttp://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/february/27/newsid_2515000/2515789.stmhttp://www.vtri.ac.uk/media/livacuk/irish-studies/research/Terrorism,knows,NO,Borders.pdfhttps://watermark.silverchair.com/523.pdf?token=AQECAHi208BE49Ooan9kkhW_Ercy7Dm3ZL_9Cf3qfKAc485ysgAAA6owggOmBgkqhkiG9w0BBwagggOXMIIDkwIBADCCA4wGCSqGSIb3DQEHATAeBglghkgBZQMEAS4wEQQMfe8xdA-https://www.facebook.com/ARMAGHCBC/posts/12-november-1975john-francis-batey-59-year-old-civilian-married-and-a-businessma/533801383379173/https://belfastchildis.com/2018/11/17/waltons-restaurant-bombing-18th-november-1975/https://www.facebook.com/ARMAGHCBC/posts/18-november-1975audrey-edgson-44-year-old-civilian-married-theodore-williams-49-/536573176435327/ Hosted on Acast.
