In 2002 13 year old Milly Dowler vanished from a bus stop on her way home from school; this sparked one of the nation’s biggest investigations, but sadly her remains were found 6 months later. Over the next few years, one by one more women started being attacked across South London. The MO was often different, the vehicle was always different, but the police were convinced that they had a serial killer on their hands...

Episode 134 - Lindsay Souvannarath & The Valentine's Massacre Plot

In 2015, self-proclaimed Nazi - Lindsay Souvannarath and her murderous bae, James Gamble plotted to commit a Valentine's Day mass shooting at a mall in Nova Scotia. Thankfully their plan failed. But to understand what led these two "lovebirds" on a sadistic path of rage and murder, we need to explore the dark world of online radicalisation, white supremacy, esoteric Hilterism and teen Tumblr romance...

Episode 133 - The UK's Most Prolific Rapist: Reynhard Sinaga

When 18 year old, Peter, woke up in a mystery flat after a night out he was scared. It was then with horror that he realised he couldn't move his arms, and a strange man was sexually assaulting him... That man was Reynhard Sinaga; and thanks to Peter, in January 2020, Sinaga was finally convicted of 159 sexual offences, including 136 counts of rape.  For years he'd been preying on the men of Manchester, England - attacking with impunity and going totally undetected thanks in large part to his innocent looks, and the copious amounts of GHB that he plied his victims with. This week we uncover the man behind the mugshot.

Episode 132 - Michelle Carter & Conrad Roy: “Love You Forever”

When 18 year old Conrad Roy was found dead in his truck it looked like an obvious suicide. But as detectives started their investigation it soon became clear that this was anything but obvious. Conrad and his 17 year old online girlfriend, Michelle Carter, had exchanged a series of troubling messages in the lead up to his death. Ones in which Michelle seemingly encouraged Conrad to kill himself. Today RedHanded asks the question - did Michelle Carter cause Roy Conrad’s suicide, or was it a tragic perfect storm based on teenager’s romantic fantasy?

Episode 131 - Louise Woodward & Shaken Baby Syndrome

When 8 month old Matthew Eappen was admitted to hospital with signs of a severe head trauma, and died just days later of his injuries, doctors and police suspected abuse.  Louise Woodward, Matthew’s 18 year old British au pair, was quickly arrested and tried for his murder; and although she denied ever hurting the baby, many experts seriously doubted her story.  With the medical evidence pointing in every direction, in this week’s episode Suruthi and Hannah put shaken baby syndrome and the case of Louise Woodward under the microscope...

When 14 year old Ana Kriégel was found in an old, abandoned Manor House in Lucan, Dublin the sheer brutality of her murder horrified a nation.  But the revelation that the perpetrators of this incredibly violent, sexually-motivated crime were themselves kids - even younger than Ana - raised dark questions about guilt, innocence and the idea of dangerous children.  References: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/courts/criminal-court/ana-kriegel-murder-boy-a-sentenced-to-life-boy-b-sentenced-to-15-years-1.4072944 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7D4jygfJTY https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/boy-convicted-of-ana-kriegel-murder-incredibly-sorry-38642533.html https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/breaking-ana-kriegel-murder-boy-20815532 https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/ana-kriegel-verdict-the-evidence-the-jury-did-not-hear-931435.html https://www.thesun.ie/news/4876479/ana-kriegel-hellhole-house-renovations-demands-demolish/ https://edition.cnn.com/2019/11/05/europe/ana-kriegel-ireland-youngest-killers-scli-intl/index.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7629567/Mother-murdered-Ana-Kriegel-haunted-torture-sadistic-violation-daughter.html https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/10237395/ana-kriegel-mum-life-destroyed-murder-dublin/ https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-48991131 https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/ana-kriegel-murder-trial-jury-asked-to-consider-if-theres-any-real-evidence-boy-a-planned-any-of-this-at-all-38198380.html https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/ana-kriegel-murder-trial-dad-of-boy-b-says-his-son-didnt-tell-him-full-story-at-beginning-as-he-couldnt-believe-it-38179372.html See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
