Bonus Episode: Podcasters RoundTable - January

When the knock at the door came shortly after midnight, Carol & Keith Slater initially tried to ignore the noise, assuming it was just kids messing around or maybe someone at the wrong address. But as the knocking continued, Carol told Keith he should pop down and see who was at the door in case it was related to their two young children who were staying with Grandparents that night. It might be the police, maybe there had been an accident. Minutes later, Keith was dead - at just 33 years old - and so many lives changed forever.  Find out more about the UK True Crime Podcast: https://uktruecrime.com Buy tickets for my live show on 2 June in South Shields https://www.customshouse.co.uk/theatre/murder-aint-easy/ Join me at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrime Join me in Sheffield on 7 September https://armchairdetectiveswanted.com/events Join the UK True Crime Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime Buy my book 'Gone Fishing' about serial killer Angus Sinclair: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gone-Fishing-Unsolved-Crimes-Sinclair/dp/1914277201 Sources https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/dec/05/experience-i-was-a-murder-suspect-for-18-years https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/crime/suspect-in-murder-case-freed-on-bail-1939045 https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/man-denies-any-involvement-1988-1411801 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPHtp9Zn5bY http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/humber/6336343.stm https://www.facebook.com/100063572408552/posts/2001351636774993/ https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/hull-east-yorkshire-news/murderer-martin-brown-admits-not-105951

It was late - almost midnight - by a quarry near the forest. The police had arrived as a car had been reported for driving in an erratic manner. The woman was clearly very uncomfortable and didn't want the officers to look inside the two suitcases. The bodycam is startling as an officer opens one of the bags. There is an audible sharp exhale of breath when what he is looking at hits home. The officer says in both horror and astonishment: "What the f***."

Lauren Jeska was a fell runner. As a transgender athlete, she had been asked to provide evidence of hormone levels after historical complaints to UK Athletics that she had an unfair advantage competing in women’s events because she had been born a man. The policy of the governing body required the athlete to take a blood test, but she took exception to this and feared being unable to compete. Lauren saw this as an attack on her life and decided to take drastic action. Find out more about the UK True Crime Podcast: https://uktruecrime.com Writing Credit: Megan Grant.

John Warrington was interested in making money and had built up a portfolio of several commercial premises and two houses. But when market conditions took a turn for the worse, he was soon in massive debt and his life was spiralling out of control. He needed urgent results before he lost everything. John's solution was to write a crime thriller - sure, an unusual choice. When the publishers weren't interested and time was running out before he lost everything, he decided to roll the dice one last time by using the storyline of the novel in his real life...

21 year old Libby Squire, who was studying philosophy at Hull University, had been out with her friends that Thursday evening. They had been drinking around one of their mates houses before heading out. But at the end of the night the bouncers had not let her in the nightclub, The Welly, as they thought she was too tipsy. Nothing unusual here, many of us have been there - so her friends put her in a taxi and paid the fare to ensure she got home safely. But Libby didn't make it home. This week we discover the horrible truth of just what happened to Libby.

Susan and Christopher Whybrow - a wealthy barrister - were the fortunate occupants of a beautiful farmhouse in Leavenheath, Suffolk, set within 12 acre gardens. After almost 10 years of marriage, to many people the couple had it all; the idyllic property and a comfortable lifestyle with no money worries. And yet as we know, in all of our lives things are not often quite as we portray to the outside world. In our story today: flying lessons, an illicit affair, a trial at the Old Bailey - and a lawn mower.

Todays story is from Liverpool where a shooting outside a nightclub left a number of questions unanswered. Serious players in the underworld were loosely connected and did all they could to make the charges related to the shooting go away.
