Each passing day, the increasing crowd of bystanders observed scene-of-crime officers, carrying box upon box of evidence out of the garden of 25 Cromwell Street, their boots heavy with mud, marking the tarmac outside... (Part 2 of 5)

When asked if they wanted to visit the property on Cromwell Street, the jury were unanimous in their decision. They were transported to the scene by bus. The windows were covered and jurors were told not to talk to anyone. The route they would make on foot, from the rear of the house, into the building, was shielded from view. It was vital the numerous camera crews still filming the property did not record the jury. They walked, single file, from the top of the home, moving down, floor by floor, until they reached the cellar and the horrors that were perpetrated within it. White ribbons marked where each body had been found... (Part 1 of 5)

‘They Walk Among Us’ returns for Season 6 on Wednesday, June 16, 2021.

The waters of the River Aire were in the process of being searched by divers from The West Yorkshire constabulary. Excavation work also continued around the flats where Stephen Griffiths lived in Holmfield Court on Thornton Road in Bradford. A collection of crossbow bolts, two crossbows, numerous bags and electronic equipment had been recovered from his home… (Part 3 of 3)

Stephen Griffiths was the man who ended Suzanne Blamires’ life. That was not something he could argue as he had been filmed on CCTV executing her with a crossbow. Suzanne’s remains were later found in the River Aire. Griffiths was also suspected of killing Susan Rushworth and Shelley Armitage. Their whereabouts were currently unknown… (Part 2 of 3)

The footage captured by a CCTV camera around 2:30 am, early that Saturday morning is grainy. It pictures a corridor on the third floor of a building. A male and a female are walking side by side. They enter one of the flats through the front door. Minutes later, the door flings open, and the woman is seen running as fast as she can... (Part 1 of 3)

Love, betrayal, jealousy and greed are themes that are as old as time. These emotions can dominate someone's thoughts and lead them to murder. But if they take a life, they seldom get away with it. So focused on the spoils of their ill-gotten gains, they think scarcely about the person that is gone or how the death will negatively impact the lives of the victim's loved ones. However, after their arrest, the murderer will have decades to think about what they have done in their prison cell, never seeing the financial or romantic gains they set out to attain…

A mother of two was brutally bludgeoned to death during the evening of August 31, 1995. Police at first believed the crime to be a burglary gone wrong. But when the focus of the investigation quickly turned to her surviving family, things took an even more insidious turn... (Part 2 of 2)

A mother of two is found bludgeoned to death in a suspected burglary gone wrong. The attack is barbaric. Blood spatter covers the ceiling. But in spite of the carnage, only a small sum of money has been stolen. Is a woman's life really worth the £100 that was reported missing? The attack shocks the quiet suburban neighbourhood as police struggle to find a suspect. Is this really a random attack, or is someone closer to home responsible?... (Part 1 of 2)

After conception, if a fertilised egg splits in two, it produces identical twins. They can share the same sac in the womb, rapidly growing, entwined with each other. Their DNA is almost identical, so similar in fact, it was, only until recently, impossible to tell them apart. When they are raised, they encounter many of life's milestones together; they go to the same school, know the same people, and often experience the same things. When they are grown, the twins might go their separate ways, but the intense bond they formed when they were young is still strong when they meet again. This is the case of Ursula and Sabina Eriksson…

From the start, it was clear to detectives that this was a murder inquiry. Officers were immediately dispatched to search the area for a possible suspect, maybe someone in bloody clothes or acting suspiciously. Onlookers had seen a man fleeing the scene. They noted he was wearing a light beige waist-length jacket. But despite a quick response from the Kent constabulary, asking all potential witnesses near the scene if they had seen anything, officers drew a blank…

In early April 2016, the judge began his summary of the case. Approaching its eighth week, during the trial the jury were told of the 100 plus injuries that were inflicted. Weighing six and a half stone, Angela Wrightson was beaten, not only punched and kicked, but assaulted with a table, a printer, a television, and a vase, over the course of several hours… (Part 3 of 3).

On the morning of December 9, 2014, Angela Wrightson was found lifeless on the sofa in her living room. She had died from multiple injuries inflicted during a brutal assault committed over the course of several hours. Due to the severity of the attack, a pathologist could not confirm a cause of death. Two teenagers, a 13 and 14-year-old, were charged with Angela’s murder… (Part 2 of 3).

The property did not stand out. Closed vertical blinds shielded the windows from prying eyes. The front door and brick facade were painted white. The chipped paint was offset against half a dozen bouquets of flowers all the colours of the rainbow, that had been secured to a drainpipe running parallel against the front door. In County Durham, around two weeks before Christmas 2014, the body of a female was discovered in a property located a short distance from Hartlepool town centre… (Part 1 of 3).

If you google "Rocklyn in Carnkie", the first articles that appear mention cruel and senseless murders committed in 2000. The views and B&Bs in the sleepy, scenic west Cornwall village take second place. The villagers had seldom seen a police officer in the area, if at all. There was never any need for one to visit, let alone patrol — it was that kind of place. But in the autumn of 2000, officers swarmed a family home at midnight when five people went missing…

Just north of an old toll bridge on the border of Dalkeith, Scotland sits a property called The Neuk in Bridge End. The beautiful home with servant quarters and outbuildings in Midlothian was the place for an exceptional party on February 3, 1911. As the evening was drawing to its conclusion, a party deemed a roaring success, it was time for one last drink, a coffee. But things were about to take an awful turn...

A forensic team dressed head to toe in white overalls combed the field. In their hunt for clues, they stood several metres apart as they steadily manoeuvred through the muddy grassland which was bordered by trees and dense bushes. A nearby road was closed off, and tracking dogs were deployed around the scene. The discovery was made by refuse collectors near the Cheshire village of Ashley located on the boundary of Greater Manchester…

"He murdered because he wanted to, for sexual or other gratification, or perhaps to see what it was like to kill - like so many of his heroes who he had clearly been researching” — Brian Altman QC, The Old Bailey, July 2007

Days turned to weeks, weeks to months, months to years, years to decades. Roy's murderer was free to travel around the countryside and towns across the United Kingdom, undetected. Almost 33 years later, the law would catch up with him, but perhaps some of his crimes were left behind…

"Many people who consume too much alcohol can become aggressive. The prosecution say what the defendant did on July 7 last year… was done in anger and fuelled by drink” — Rachel Brand QC, Birmingham Crown Court, February 2018
