Season 5 - Episode 21

DESCRIPTION:

A dead body was found in Harrow, Greater London at the end of May 1993. The officers at the scene quickly came to the conclusion that it was death by misadventure. The man, 37-year-old Christopher Dunn, was a librarian who worked at Harlesden Library in Brent, 7 miles from his home on Byron Way in Wealdstone. He was discovered in bed. The death was later ruled undetermined, but detectives thought it looked more like a tragic accident. Forensic analysis was kept to a bare minimum, and with little scrutiny, the police seemed to believe this was how the events unfolded. ‘After all’, the officers pondered, Christopher was dressed in a studded leather harness and a belt. It was assumed that Christopher died during an act of sadomasochistic bondage… (Part 1 of 2).
