Belper 1844

William Yeomans and his wife Sarah are dead on the floor of their parlor; blood pooling around their bodies Neighbours suspect they know what happened but for now, only one person does.

The whole terrible scene played out before the eyes of a young boy whose chilling retelling of what he saw left everybody who heard it in no doubt as to the enormity of what had occurred and at who’s hand blood had been shed.

The Pigeon Champion of Pinxton - Part One

The Pigeon Champion of Pinxton

In late April 2023, the remains of a man were discovered buried on farmland near Sutton-in-Ashfield in Nottinghamshire. After weeks of painstaking work at the site, and with the help of the public, the remains were identified as that of 52 year old Alfred Swinscoe, a Derbyshire miner who had been missing for over half a century.

In this first of what will be an occasional series, we look into what’s known about Alfred, his life and the challenges an investigation like this represents to detectives.

Although they haven’t contributed directly to this episode, I would like to thank Alfred’s family for taking the time to listen to the episode in advance of publication and corroborating the biographical information I’ve been able to unearth.

If you are able to help Nottinghamshire Police in any way to find the answers the family are so desperately looking for, please call the enquiry team on 0800 096 0095.

Peak True Crime - The Boy from Repton School

The Boy from Repton School

The English Public School is seen as the epitomising all that good about the country.

Loyalty, hard work, honesty and a sense of fair play are attributes parents expect that just such an education will instill in their sons and daughters.

How then, does a former pupil of one of the leading public schools in the country go from being a shining star of the 1st XI cricket team to being a convicted drug smuggler who was caught trying to import 1.5 tons of cocaine into the UK?

Is the fall from grace of Jonathan Arnold all the more dramatic given his mother used to be a deputy Police and Crime Commissioner?
