The Murder Of Jodi Jones - Part 1

On the morning of Wednesday, December 8, 2004, a jury stepped on to a bus to travel from Edinburgh High Court to Roan’s Dyke Path, a countryside short-cut between the residential areas of Newbattle and Easthouses in Midlothian, Scotland. Wilted sunflowers, stuffed bears, candles and tributes marked the spot of a horrendous tragedy. A year prior, this countryside trail was the location where a 14-year-old girl was brutally murdered... (Part 1 of 2).
