DESCRIPTION:
PLEASE LISTEN TO ‘SEASON 9 - EPISODE 42’ FOR PART ONE OF THIS TWO-PART CASE. Sparse details of an alleged exorcism emerged at Leeds Crown Court when Michael Taylor was found not guilty by reason of insanity for killing his wife, Christine. In an almost unprecedented move, the coroner decided it would be in the public interest to reopen the inquest so that the full story would be held on record... (Part 2 of 2).
*** LISTENER CAUTION IS ADVISED ***
