In February 2011, the body of a 19-year-old female was found inside a burning flat. As more details emerged, it soon became apparent that the fire was no accident, and the victim, Nikitta Grender - who was 38 weeks pregnant with a baby girl, had been brutally murdered, sending shockwaves throughout the city of Newport, South Wales.
Police initially questioned Nikitta's boyfriend Ryan, but when her true killer is identified and the shocking details begin to unfold, Nikitta's mother Marcia is left questioning if her own Nan had foreseen this unimaginable crime all along?

E55 - Trapped in a Nightmare: The Injustice of IPP in the UK
True Crime Britain
06/14/23 • 34 min
*** THIS EPISODE CONTAINS REFERENCES TO SELF-HARM AND SUICIDE. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHEN LISTENING ***
Imagine being stuck in a never-ending nightmare, with no hope of escape. Every day, the same routine: confined to a tiny cell, with nothing to do but stare at the walls. No end in sight, no light at the end of the tunnel. This has been the reality for thousands of prisoners in the UK, trapped in the Imprisonment for Public Protection (IPP) sentence.
When the IPP sentence was introduced in the early 2000s, it seemed like a perfect solution to keep dangerous offenders off the streets for longer periods of time. But it would quickly become an unjust nightmare for many prisoners and their families, as they were caught up in a system that seemed to have no way out. What exactly was the IPP system, and how did it come to be? What impact has it had on prisoners and their families, and how did it change the landscape of the UK prison system?

E54 - Bible John - Scotland's Elusive Killer
True Crime Britain
06/07/23 • 51 min
Friday, the 23rd of February 1968, was a cold, frost covered morning, when 67 year old Maurice Goodman, known as Morris, happened upon a figure lying on the ground on Carmichael Lane, in front of some lockup garages, not too far from Langside Place in Glasgow, Scotland. But a sight like that wasn't too uncommon after ballroom nights. Maybe someone had had a bit too much to drink, and passed out outside. But as Maurice stepped closer, intending to wake the person, he realised that this was not the case.
Maurice stood there, looking at the naked and terribly pale body of a young woman lying on her back. He nudged the body with his foot, and it was then, that he realised the woman had passed away.
Recoiling in horror, Maurice ran back home to Carmichael Place to call the police. There was no way for Maurice to know it at the time, but he had initiated the investigation that would grow to be one of the biggest and most frustrating in Scotland's history...Join my Facebook group for some great giveaways, discuss case theories and take part in polls for future episodes.

E52 - The Killamarsh Murders
True Crime Britain
05/28/23 • 40 min
***WARNING - THIS EPISODE CONTAINS DESCRIPTIONS OF A GRAPHIC AND SEXUALLY ABUSIVE NATURE, INVOLVING CHILDREN. PROCEED WITH CAUTION, AND TAKE CARE WHEN LISTENING***“
"I remember when they were younger, they would always say they were scared of monsters and I would say there’s ‘no such thing’. How wrong I was.”
These are the haunting words of Angela Smith, the grandmother of Lacey, and John Paul Bennet, and mother of Terri Harris, three of the victims in today's harrowing case.
On the 19th of September 2021, police would receive not one, but two calls, which would bring to light a series of events that would shock the UK. This is the story, of the Killamarsh Murders.
At exactly 7.26 that morning, the police received a call from a mother, expressing concern for her adult son’s safety. She told the operator that her son had told her he was suffering from self-inflicted stab wounds, and she requested that police perform a wellness check. Minutes later, at exactly 7.38 am, the police received another call. The man on the line stated, in what was reported as an unusually nonchalant manner, “I just need to report a crime, basically I need the police and an ambulance now because I’ve just killed four people.” When the man identified himself and his address, the operator was able to link the two separate calls, both of which told very different stories. The man identified himself as Damien Bendall.

E50 - The Murder of Jo Cox
True Crime Britain
05/10/23 • 23 min
In broad daylight, on a warm summer afternoon in 2016, British politician, and MP for Batley and Spen, Jo Cox, was murdered in cold-blood. Horrified witnesses at the scene, scrambled at the sound of gunshots, and the sight of an unknown attacker with a sawn-off rifle, and knife in hand. Jo Cox’s death stunned the nation, and sent shockwaves through Britain's political circle.
As investigators begin to gather evidence that would explain the horrific murder of a beloved politician, wife, and mother of two, the nation is left with a pressing question–what could have possibly led a man with seemingly no history of violence to brutally murder a female MP that he had never met? The answers to that question were more troubling than anyone could have imagined.

E48 - A Spy In a Bag - The Death of Gareth Williams
True Crime Britain
04/19/23 • 22 min
When 31-year-old, Gareth Williams, began to miss work, his colleagues, and family became concerned. Gareth had always been reliable, and kept to his routines. But on August 23, 2010, when the police were asked to do a welfare check, they entered Gareth’s London flat, and made a shocking discovery. The police found Gareth dead, zipped up, and locked inside a duffle bag. Authorities ruled Gareth Williams’ death a tragic accident, but conspiracy theories about how Gareth Williams died quickly began to circulate, with some believing that his work as an MI6 spy, and double-life may offer clues into his mysterious death. Years later, Gareth’s death remains unsolved, leading friends and family to wonder: was it suicide? Or was Gareth Williams murdered? And if so, by who? And more importantly, why?

E47 - The Murder of Julie Hogg
True Crime Britain
04/12/23 • 43 min
We all know the justice system exists to protect the public against criminals and their heinous crimes. But what if these laws, and regulations, suddenly contradict their purpose, and work in favour of the offender?
Anyone can assume that based on a lack of evidence or proof of their innocence that an accused person is not guilty. But what if that same person eventually confesses to the crime - You’d naturally assume that the criminal would be charged, and sentenced appropriately right?
But in the case of Julie Hogg, who was murdered in 1989, her killer was able to retain his freedom, despite admitting what he had done. The horrible reason behind this, is a law introduced in the 12th century – that of double jeopardy.
Julie's parents took up the fight for justice in the name of their loving daughter. Her mother stated, “I will never ever give up... never. To my dying day and as long as I am drawing breath, and as long as there is someone to listen, I will keep on going”. Eventually, it would take more than 15 years to change the “double jeopardy” law. But was it too late for their daughter’s killer?
