British Murders with Stuart Blues

In the eighth episode of British Murders Season 4, I tell the story of Euan Peters and Shafiul Islam.⁣⁣⁣

Peters, who also went by Sax Coke, was an underground UK hip hop artist who was well known to the police.⁣

On November 14, 2019, Peters visited Islam’s flat in Newport, South Wales, and proceeded to attack him multiple times with a glass Kopparberg cider bottle.⁣

Islam suffered severe brain injuries and died 6 days later at Royal Gwent Hospital as a result.⁣

Peters received a life sentence with a minimum term of 33 years in April 2021.⁣

In this off-season episode, I am once again chatting to my good friend Lorraine from the horror movie podcast 'Once Upon a Nightmare'.⁣⁣

This episode was actually recorded for Lorraine’s podcast, but we had such a fun time, so I thought I’d bring the episode across here so you can all give it a listen.⁣

This movie was a staple of my childhood and I still quote it daily.⁣

Lots and lots of laughs were had.⁣

In this very special bonus episode of British Murders, I am joined by John from the 'Reddit On Wiki' podcast and my lifelong friend Dav as we discuss the double-murder suicide case of former WWE wrestler Chris Benoit.⁣

Over a three-day period from June 22 to 24, 2007, the former two-time world champion killed his wife Nancy Benoit and their 7-year-old son, Daniel, before finally hanging himself.⁣

Benoit was booked to become ECW Champion at WWE’s Vengeance: Night of Champions pay-per-view on Sunday, June 24, 2007, but he no-showed the event.⁣

On Monday, June 25, 2007, WWE cancelled their scheduled three-hour-long live Raw TV show and replaced it with a tribute to Chris Benoit's life and career.⁣

On Tuesday, June 26, 2007, after details of the murder-suicide became available, the company aired a recorded statement before its ECW broadcast advising that Benoit’s name would not be mentioned again.⁣

Except for his results and listings in WWE's title history, the WWE website has removed all past mentions of Benoit, including his biography and the video tribute comments made by his fellow wrestlers.⁣

In February 1994, a night out in Manchester ended in tragedy when 21-year-old Jason Comerford was fatally stabbed as he made his way home.

Despite hundreds of witness interviews, a Crimewatch appeal and a major investigation, the case went cold - and Jason’s family were left without answers for decades.

It would take breakthroughs in forensic science, the dogged persistence of detectives and an extraordinary battle against the justice system itself before Jason’s killer was finally unmasked. But by the time the truth came out, it was too late for those who had fought hardest to see justice done.

In the season 4 special of British Murders, I tell the story of Levi Bellfield, aka “The Bus Stop Killer”.⁣

Bellfield was found guilty on February 25, 2008, of the murders of Marsha McDonnell and Amélie Delagrange and the attempted murder of Kate Sheedy, for which he was sentenced to life imprisonment.⁣

On June 23, 2011, Bellfield was found guilty of a third murder, 13-year-old schoolgirl Amanda “Milly” Dowler.⁣

Bellfield is the only UK serial killer to be handed two whole life orders, meaning he will never be considered for parole.⁣

In the first episode of this 2 part special, we'll focus on Bellfield’s childhood and background before the murders.⁣

Next week, we'll discuss the murders themselves as well as the trials that followed.⁣
