Episode 7 - To Protect & To Kill

To Protect & To Kill Welcome to episode 7 of Picture The Scene podcast. A true crime podcast hosted by Andrew & Rachael that brings you true crime from all over the world, with an emphasis on the UK & Ireland. Today's episode is about Joy Gardner, a woman killed long before the BLM movement started but still sadly for many of the same reasons that it did start. Racism is not acceptable anywhere in society, let alone in those who are meant to protect and to serve us.
