Fri, 08 Oct 2021 10:59:02 GMT

On the 3rd of July 2010, Raoul Moat shot 29-year-old Karate instructor Chris Brown in the street and then turned the modified shotgun on his ex-partner Samantha Stobbart. By the next morning, Northumbria Police had started what would be the largest police manhunt the UK had ever seen.

The case captured the public attention, becoming more and more outrageous by the day. Until a week later ex-footballer Paul "Gazza" Gascoigne cemented himself and Moat in British pop culture forever.

In July 2007, a blurry 8-minute long video shot on a mobile phone, titled “3 guys, 1 Hammer”, was uploaded to a shock video website. The video showed two men using a hammer and a screwdriver to brutally murder a terrified man.

#19 In the News: That's No Mannequin...

Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:00:06 GMT

In this month's In the News, we take you through the tragic story of how globe-trotting, Esther Dingley seemingly disappeared off of the face of the Earth whilst solo hiking in the Pyrenees mountains earlier this year, and the lengths her boyfriend went to in order find out what happened to her.

We then go to Quebec, Canada, to bring you the mind-boggling story of how the Sherbrooke fire and police department made a horrendous error in judgment...

Following this we head over to England, to recount the bizarre case of an NHS anesthetist who performed over 250 exorcisms on his girlfriend, with devastating consequences.

Finally, we finish up this rather macabre series of news stories with the story of how self-proclaimed incel, 21-year-old, Tres Genco's plans for a murder spree in Ohio were fortunately thwarted by police.

Bonus - Georgia Williams: The Snuff Film Maker Down the Street

Fri, 27 Aug 2021 09:01:01 GMT

In this second instalment of our promise to deliver two bonus episodes after we won GOLD at the British Podcast Awards, we cover the heartbreaking case of Georgia Williams.

Georgia was a high-achieving and kind teenager who was always willing to help those who asked, and her killer knew this. 23-year-old Jamie Reynolds had an obsession with violent pornography and snuff movies. In May 2013 he used Georgia's good nature against her and eventually guilted the 16-year-old into coming over to his parents' house to take part in a "fake murder" photoshoot, that soon turned out to be all too real.

Episode 210 - Shamima Begum: ISIS & The Bethnal Green 3 - Part 2

Wed, 25 Aug 2021 07:01:03 GMT

This week Suruthi and Hannah head into a place widely regarded as one of the most dangerous places in the Middle East right now - the notorious al-Hawl camp. It's where in 2019 a British journalist found an 18 year old, 9 month pregnant Shamima Begum. Soon after this discovery Shamima Begum would have her British citizenship revoked, leaving her stateless in the desert hell-hole.

In the concluding episode of this series, the girls discuss how ISIS used religion to justify sex slavery, the fall of the so-called caliphate and what should be done with individuals like Shamima Begum.

Flat Earth 'theory': A Global Conspiracy

Mon, 16 Aug 2021 07:00:04 GMT

Flat Earth 'theory' and the now world-famous Flat Eart Earth Society have become a mind-bending puzzle for some and a source of ridicule for others. The story of how a group of people began to believe something so groundless is one part religious, one part psychological, and one part a conspiracy within a conspiracy.

So put on those tin-foil hats, stand on your nearest grassy knoll, and get ready to ascend to the edge of the earth.

Episode 208 - Pedro Rodrigues Filho: Serial Killer Superstar

Wed, 11 Aug 2021 07:00:04 GMT

Pedro Rodrigues Filho, aka Pedrinho Matador, Killer Petey or The Brazilian Dexter, is a bit of an anomaly as far as serial killers go. He brutally killed at least 71 people, including his own father, but still many people in Brazil revere and applaud him for his "work"...

So much so in fact that today, unbelievably, Filho is free and living his best life as a YouTube sensation with hundreds of thousands of followers, and millions of views.

Bonus: The Columbine High School Massacre

Mon, 09 Aug 2021 17:16:00 GMT

Earlier this year we promised that if we won gold in the BPA Listeners' Choice category, we would deliver two bonus episodes chosen by the Spooky Bitches. This is the first of those episodes - The Columbine High School Massacre.

The months leading up to the 20th of April 1999 - and the mindsets of both Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold - have been very well documented. And yet the story of The Columbine High School Massacre is still full of misreporting, misunderstanding, and miscommunication.

In this episode of RedHanded, we aim to dispel some myths and get into the facts behind America's most infamous high-school shooting.

Award winning champions of the people RedHanded bring you a boat themed mystery for the ages.

Episode 206 - Fritz Haarmann: The Butcher of Hannover

Wed, 28 Jul 2021 07:00:03 GMT

In the early 1900s Germany was a nation ravaged by the horrors of war, debt and death. For years, as they struggled with stagflation and starvation, all manner of depravity began to emerge; there had even been rumours of human meat being sold on Germany’s black markets.

And it was during this time, that a dangerous man roamed the streets committing a series of gruesome murders so diabolical that he terrified people who had survived the nightmares of WW1. This man, a deviant sexual sadist, went on to be known as The Butcher of Hanover...

Episode 205 - Anton LaVey & The Church of Satan

Wed, 21 Jul 2021 07:01:02 GMT

Anton LaVey, founder and head priest of the Church of Satan, led a controversial life; he was linked to the death of a famous Hollywood starlet and even a Kennedy brother. In this episode Hannah and Suruthi explore LaVey's early life, from burlesque organ player, to occultist, to being labelled by some as "the most evil man in the world".

Join the girls for a deep dive into America's satanic panic, the origins of Satanism and how it has evolved over the decades.

Bonus - The Slenderman Stabbing

Mon, 19 Jul 2021 12:01:03 GMT

On May 31, 2014, in Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls, Anissa Weier and Morgan Geyser, lured their best friend Payton Leutner into the woods and stabbed her 19 times.

They claimed it was in an attempt to become proxies of the fictional character Slender Man.

It was a case that gained the attention of the press internationally, bringing children's internet usage and "creepypastas" to the forefront of public attention.

But what really happened in the woods that day?

#73 Under the Duvet: ‘The Listeners' Choice Award is Coming Home!’

Wed, 14 Jul 2021 07:00:04 GMT

Hello everyone! Just a quick note to say the audio quality of this Under The Duvet is very poor due to some technical difficulties with the recording.

However, we really didn’t want to miss two weeks worth of Under the Duvet so we’ve decided to upload both the video and audio for all patrons.

The only reason we couldn’t re-record is down to the fact that Suru is still recovering from COVID and very tired as a result.

We’re gutted that the audio quality is not up to standard, it won’t happen again and we’ll be back stronger next week!

In this week’s Patreon exclusive Under the Duvet:

🥇 We won GOLD in the Listeners' Choice category at the British Podcast Awards! 🥇

We’ve also got an update on Suru’s battle with COVID, what films to watch when you’re isolating and, of course, the girls discuss how football didn’t come home but racism certainly has (not that it ever left)…

All this, and more, in this week’s Under the Duvet.

Episode 204 - Dennis Nilsen: The North London Necrophile

Wed, 07 Jul 2021 07:01:01 GMT

In an unassuming suburb of North London, in 1983 some plumbers were called out to fix an unflushable toilet. This already unpleasant job was made much worse by the distinctly hand shaped bones mixed in with lumps of human flesh. This discovery would lead to the arrest of Britain's most notorious necrophile Dennis Nilsen and the body he had blocked the toilet with may have been his first victim, but it was nowhere near his last.

#17 In the News: A Faustian Bargain

Wed, 30 Jun 2021 15:35:00 GMT

Listen all about it! Listen all about it! Your monthly dose of true crime news is here!

This month we talk about the frankly under-reported, racially motivated murder of 14-year-old Dea-John, in Birmingham.

Following this we bring you the horrendous story of a young man who made a deal with the devil, where in exchange for murdering women, he believed he would win the mega-millions jackpot.

Then taking a trip to Belize, we tell the story of how a millionaire Canadian socialite “accidentally” shot, and killed a police commissioner.

And to finish up, we cover the case of a Nazi terror attack in London, Ontario, where a family of Muslims were tragically run over, and killed.

Episode 203 - The Miyazawa Family Massacre

Wed, 30 Jun 2021 07:59:11 GMT

On 30th December 2000, in Setagaya Japan, the Miyazawa family were preparing for the upcoming festivities. Tragically, however, the family wouldn't live to see the new year because that night they were all brutally murdered in their own home. A plethora of evidence was left behind at the scene, including DNA, fingerprints, half-eaten food and even an entire outfit, but still to this day this case remains one of Japan's most notorious unsolved murders.

Episode 202 - The Haunting Murder of Matthew Shepard

Wed, 23 Jun 2021 07:01:02 GMT

Content Warning - this episode contains quotes pertaining to homophobic and discriminatory language which some listeners may find upsetting.

Listener discretion is advised.

On the 7th of October 1998, 21 year old Matthew Shepard was found tied to a prairie fence at the end of a remote dirt track in Laramie, Wyoming. The young gay man had been pistol whipped in the head over 20 times, and his brain stem had been crushed. He died 6 days later in hospital.

This case went on to become arguably the most infamous gay hate crime in modern history, and for many Matthew became a martyr.

In this episode the girls examine what happened that night, the defendants’ muddled legal decisions, and the latest “bombshell evidence“…

Bonus - The Dunblane School Massacre

Mon, 21 Jun 2021 07:00:06 GMT

On the morning of the 13th of March 1996, a class of five-year old children and their teacher, were in the gymnasium of Dunblane Primary School getting ready for their P.E lesson.

The happy sounds of the children playing were silenced immediately when two loud bangs suddenly rang through the air.

The gym door then opened, and in entered a man dressed in a dark coat, black corduroy trousers and a woolly hat with ear defenders.

In his hand was a gun...

Over the next few minutes this man carried out one of the most heinous gun crimes ever committed in the UK.

Episode 200 - Jimmy Savile: Predator in Plain Sight - Part 1

Wed, 09 Jun 2021 07:01:01 GMT

For decades, TV presenter Jimmy Savile was idolised as a national treasure in Britain. He was knighted, awarded an OBE, he rubbed shoulders with royalty, prime ministers and he ruled the roost at the BBC. Savile also raised millions for charity, for which he was rewarded with the literal keys to hospitals and children's homes across the country. The power and adoration Savile enjoyed was matched only by his perversions and depravity...

In part 1 of this 2 part series, Hannah and Suruthi explore the truth behind Jimmy Savile's eccentric facade, delve into his secretive childhood and ask why no one stopped this monstrous predator.

Bonus - Kate Webster: The Real Life Sweeney Todd

Mon, 07 Jun 2021 11:56:40 GMT

(This is NOT June's bonus ep - just a little extra bonus that went out to all listeners).

Thanks to ‘NOW’, and the new show ‘The Nevers’, we’re taking all you spooky bitches on a trip to Victorian London for an extra special bonus episode. And it’s a wild one...in fact, today’s episode resulted in one of the most sensational trials of the time - so big, that the future King of Sweden made the trip all the way to The Old Bailey just to watch!

In January 1879 Mrs Julia Martha Thomas hired Kate Webster, a petty criminal, to be her live-in maid. A month later Mrs Thomas’s neighbours would complain of a foul stench coming from the woman’s home. Things only became weirder when Kate was seen wearing her boss’s clothes and allegedly selling jars of ‘Best Dripping’ to pub landlords…

Episode 199 - Cindy James: Invisible Torment

Wed, 02 Jun 2021 07:00:03 GMT

When Cindy James' decomposing body was found bound and dumped outside an abandoned house, those who knew her best were horrified - but not entirely shocked.
Cindy had been harassed and attacked by a seemingly all-knowing and malevolent stalker for almost a decade. But, in all those years, despite the thousands of hours of police work spent trying to find Cindy's tormentor, detectives had nothing more than a bizarre phone message to show for it...

Bonus - Colonia Dignidad: Nazi Cult

Mon, 31 May 2021 09:01:02 GMT

Deep in the foothills of the Andes, in central Chile, lies a small community of German expats who’ve lived there for the last 50 years. Today it’s known as Villa Bavaria, but it was originally known as Colonia Dignidad or “The Dignity Colony”.

Why on earth is there an entire village of Germans all the way in South America?Well the story is a dark one of torture, human experimentation and a powerful Nazi cult leader - and one that the people of the village would rather the world forget...

#16 In the News: Another Day, Another Body in a Suitcase

Fri, 28 May 2021 09:01:00 GMT

We've been at it again, rifling through the broadsheets and picking through the tabloids to find all of the true-crime news hitting the headlines.

Bonus Patreon Upcycle - Joel Guy Jr: "Diabolical Human Stew"

Thu, 27 May 2021 07:00:04 GMT

When Police Officers entered 11434 Goldenview Lane, they were met by a twisted scene they could hardly believe. The smell alone was enough to stick with them for a lifetime but what they found upstairs might follow them even further than that.

Waiting upstairs, in two enormous vats of acid, were the dismembered remains of 55-year-old Lisa Guy and 61-year-old Joel Guy Sr. Various hacked up body parts were visible in acidic vats, and one thing was clear, Lisa Guy’s head was missing.

The questions were obvious, and a handwritten journal appeared to hold all the answers.

In Conversation with Clair McGowan: Ireland's Vanishing Triangle

Tue, 11 May 2021 09:01:01 GMT

Between 1993 and 1998, eight women went missing from an area around Dublin that became known as the ‘Vanishing Triangle’. Was there a link? Speculation abounded. There were whispers of a serial killer, responsible for some, if not all, of these cases. But nobody was ever brought to justice.

Twenty years later, the brutal murder of Jastine Valdez disturbs crime novelist Claire McGowan into action.

Reminded, like many in Ireland, of those previous missing women, McGowan brought her skills as a novelist to the real world, setting out to uncover the truth of the vanishing triangle. As she dug deeper, she found something terrible lurking behind the idyllic image of rural Ireland and the 21st-century success story of the ‘Celtic Tiger'.

In this exclusive interview, Claire speaks with the girls about her brand new Audible Original: 'The Vanishing Triangle', and in which attempts to uncover new evidence and solve the many questions surrounding Ireland's Vanishing Triangle.

This interview is available in video form for all $10+ Patrons right now!

Episode 196 - General Butt Naked: Liberia’s Cannibal Warlord

Wed, 05 May 2021 07:00:03 GMT

During Liberia’s first bloody civil war, Joshua Milton Blahyi - aka General Butt Naked - was the nation’s most feared warlord. It is estimated that he is responsible for the deaths of at least 20,000 people, lives he destroyed as he raped and ravaged his way through Liberia using human sacrifice and cannibalism to give him and his army of child soldiers “divine” strength. In this episode, Suruthi and Hannah follow the trail of destruction created by Blahyi, and ask can a man once dubbed “the most evil man in the world” really change?

#15 In the News: QAnon Kidnappings

Fri, 30 Apr 2021 10:01:01 GMT

This month's In The News is hot of the press - and this time, it's an array of horribleness.

We start with the murder of adult model Kat West in Calera, Alabama. Kat was found dead, outside her house, wearing nothing but a pink sports bra. Her husband, Jeff West was charged with her murder.

Then we move over to Rock Hill, South Carolina where a mass shooting was carried out by ex-NFL cornerback Phillip Adams. Before turning the gun on himself in a police standoff.

Our penultimate news story of the week is the very unusual, deeply political, kidnapping of eight-year-old Mia Montemaggi from the Vosges of Eastern France. After a five day search and a 200 officer strong investigation, Mia was discovered in a squat in Swizterland with her mother.

And finally, we round off this month with the arrest of Paul Flores, the longtime suspect for the rape and murder of Kristin Smart. His father, Ruben Flores, has also been charged as an accessory to the murder.

#14 In the News: Science Saves the Day?

Wed, 31 Mar 2021 07:00:03 GMT

Bring your torches lads because this month's episode of In the News is getting dark, real dark.

We're bringing you an update on the murder of Samuel Paty, which we covered in episode 172, as well as the case of a man who committed double murder against his own children for a life insurance payout.

On top of that, we've got a terrifying dive into a case of modern slavery in Australia, and an incredibly interesting and heartbreaking tale of how the world's top geneticists are trying to save a woman from her life sentence for murder.

So grab those head torches, and let's dive on in.

Episode 191 - "Bride of Christ": Swedish Sects & Sex Slaves

Wed, 31 Mar 2021 07:00:03 GMT

In the late 90s Pastor Åsa Waldau became the leader of the Knutby Pentacostal church. She had already been sacked from such a post in Uppsala after having "inappropriate relationships'' with the teenage boys in her congreation, but that wasn't about to stop Åsa.

In Knutby she doubled the size of the sect and soon decided that she was in fact the bride of none other than Jesus Christ. Needless to say the community soon found itself in cult territory...

On the 4th of July 1987, after a night on the town, Kenneth Kunz returned home to his family's run down farmhouse. He had no idea he was about to walk in on the scene of a crime that would go on to be talked about for decades to come....

His two elderly aunts, his uncle, and younger brother had all been murdered in execution style killings, and his 70 year old mother was nowhere to be found....

The Marathon County police were left scratching their heads for months, and during their investigation they unwittingly uncovered the Kunz family's dark past of incest, mental illness, and murder...

#57 Under the Duvet: "You're Old, Stop Eating Bread"

Wed, 17 Mar 2021 08:01:00 GMT

This week we're hot, angry, and Under the Duvet as we discuss the catastrophic mess that is The Metropolitan Police's handling of anything related to Sarah Everard. We talk about how the subject of a female curfew was even broached, why sending plainclothes police officers into club nights probably isn't going to solve anything, and (as if we even needed to mention it) why people need to stop blaming women for being murdered.

The volcano of anger then fully erupts when Suruthi describes Kate Middle as "nothing but a hungry clothes horse" and threatens to tear off her own face if anyone else compares her to Dianna.

Update on the Tuam 796

Fri, 15 Jan 2021 08:01:01 GMT

In 1975 the skull of a child was discovered on the site of an old mother and baby home in Tuam, Ireland. It lead to the discovery of hundreds more children's remains that had been disguarded by nuns who ran the home. Fearless campaigner and historian Catherine Corless made sure everyone knew about it and enough pressure was put on the Irish government that an investigation commission was formed.

The Mother and Baby Home report has now been released and Hannah has brought you everything you need to know. Not for the faint of heart.

But even as her behaviour became increasingly erratic, and even as those around her started to die in mysterious ways, and even when 2 of her kids - J.J. and Tylee - vanished, it took a shockingly long time for the alarm to be raised.

By which point, it would be far too late for the missing children...

**Had a slight tech issue on this one, Hannah sounds like she's down a far away drain or by the side of an even further away bin, which lets face it, is where she belongs. - We sincerely apologise and promise to try harder and do better.**

This week, while huddled under the duvet, Hannah and Suruthi finally talk about that body donation centre in Arizona and the bizarre creations found inside. The pair also discuss one of Britains most well-remembered anthems that we'd all rather forget, as well as the true effects of Britains post-break-up relationship with the EU.

During the two day's Ms Dhu spent in police custody in Western Australia, she was dropped to the floor, lifted by her hands and feet, and another prisoner was dragged into her cell to stare at her.

She died of preventable causes aged just twenty-two, while a white officer stood over her saying she was just "faking it".

This is Ms Dhu's story.

Episode 165 - Did Dai Morris Do It?

Wed, 16 Sep 2020 07:01:00 GMT

In June 1999 a fire broke out at 9 Kelvin Road in Clydach, Wales. By the time emergency services arrived the residents: Mandy Power, her 80 year old mother Doris and Mandy’s 2 daughters Katie, 10 and Emily, 8 were all dead. But the cause of death wasn’t the fire; they had all been savagely beaten to death. All of the evidence, including a discovery made inside Mandy, pointed at a possibly grotesquely sexual motive and a potential police cover up...

Episode 164 - "Command Rape": Vanessa Guillen & LaVena Johnson

Wed, 09 Sep 2020 07:00:02 GMT

The US military has a rape problem; 20% of women who enlist are sexually assaulted or harassed.

The US military also appears to have a murder problem, because a disturbing number of women who have been victims of 'command rape' are dying in mysterious circumstances.

Vanessa Guillen was a 20 year old soldier stationed at Fort Hood, Texas and on 22 April 2020 she vanished. 6 weeks later her burned, dismembered and concrete encased remains were found. Vanessa, just like LaVena Johnson and so many other women in the military, appears to have been planning to report a fellow soldier before she was murdered...

Wed, 02 Sep 2020 07:00:02 GMT

When Rachel O'Reilly was brutally murdered in her own home in County Dublin, her family were told that it was a home invasion gone horribly wrong.

Her devastated parents thought they'd never set foot in her house ever again; that was until Rachel's husband Joe invited them over.
But to their horror Joe insisted on showing them the grisly blood-stained walls, playing them morbid voice messages and even making them watch as he re-enacted how he thought Rachel had been killed.

Alarms bells rung loud and clear...

Wed, 26 Aug 2020 07:01:00 GMT

In March 1995 a Kansas mechanic bought an old truck at auction; when he got it home he discovered a manila envelope taped to the gas tank. To his horror, inside were 97 photos - most of them were of children being sexually abused. There was also a series of photos of a badly beaten, naked young woman.

He called the police, and this harrowing discovery unbelievably solved multiple, decades-long unsolved mysteries…

Episode 160 - The Most Hated Woman in America

Wed, 12 Aug 2020 07:00:03 GMT

Madalyn Murray O’Hair, was a woman very not of her time. In buttoned-up 50s America she called herself a militant feminist, a thinker and a drinker and - perhaps most heinous of all: an atheist.

Her provocative ways quickly gained her the illustrious title of "the most hated woman in America". She was so hated in fact that in 1995 when she, her son and her granddaughter went missing no one really seemed to care - that is until in 2001 when their dismembered bodies were found on a ranch in Texas...

Episode 159 - Conspiracies & Crowns: The Nepalese Royal Massacre

Wed, 05 Aug 2020 07:01:01 GMT

On 1 June 2001 a bloody massacre unfolded within the palace walls of the Nepalese royal family in Kathmandu. It left 10 members of the royal family dead - including the king, the queen and all 3 of their children.

These killings sparked dangerous conspiracy theories across the globe, started a civil war and set in motion a series of events that led directly to the fall of the entire royal dynasty of Nepal.

But was the right man blamed...? Was this atrocity the work of a son scorned by a love lost, or a secret military coup designed to overthrow the powerful monarchs?

Wed, 15 Jul 2020 07:00:02 GMT

In Feb 1986 the body of newlywed Sherri Rasmussen was found in the home she shared with her husband, John. It was quickly ruled a break-in gone wrong, and the case fell into the icy depths of unsolved cold cases.

But over 2 decades later the truth finally began to emerge; and for the LAPD it struck closer to home than they could have ever imagined.

Interview with Parents of a Child with “Psychopathic” Traits

Mon, 22 Jun 2020 07:00:02 GMT

In this interview we talk with long time Spooky Bitches, Cassie and Mike, as they tell us about the challenges and difficulties that their family have faced in the midst of their son Arthur’s serious behavioural issues.

Issues including: violence against others, animal abuse, a lack of remorse and callous unemotional traits.

They share the major incidents that occurred, how Arthur is now being treated clinically and what they think the future holds for the 14 year old.

Cassie and Mike reached out to us wanting to open up about this difficult topic to try and help anyone else who may be going through something similar, and also to give families like them a voice - we were honoured that they trusted us and we know that it will be received without judgement.

Episode 152 - Daniel Bartlam: The Boy with the Hammer

Wed, 17 Jun 2020 06:56:01 GMT

In 2011 a fire tore through the Bartlam home in Nottingham, England. 14 year old Daniel, his little brother Dominic and the family dog all made it safely outside, but Jacqui, their mum didn't. She had been beaten to death with a hammer and left inside the burning building. Daniel told investigators a masked intruder had killed his mum, but discoveries they made on the boy's computer soon put him at the top of the suspect list.

Wed, 10 Jun 2020 14:51:51 GMT

On 4 June 2008, 30 year old Mormon businessman Travis Alexander was found dead in his shower. He’d been shot in the head, stabbed 27 times and his throat had been slit from ear to ear. The only person any of his friends could think that would want to hurt him was his ex-girlfriend Jodi Arias.
She maintained her innocence, but the murder trial that followed was filled with scandals, secrets and sordid details.

Episode 149 - Nazi Rage: The Murder of MP Jo Cox

Wed, 27 May 2020 07:01:00 GMT

In June 2016 the chaos of Brexit reached fever pitch in the UK. One week before the referendum vote was set to take place, politician Jo Cox was savagely shot and stabbed to death outside a public library in the middle of the day. According to eyewitnesses, the assailant screamed “Britain first” as he attacked the defenceless MP. The man was soon revealed to be Thomas Mair, a dedicated neo-Nazi, whose decades-long rage had seemingly been sparked into violence by Brexit.

Episode 148 - Captivity: The Turpin 13

Wed, 20 May 2020 07:01:00 GMT

On 13 January 2018, a 17 year old girl made a break for freedom from the house of horrors in which she’d been held captive. She called 911 and soon police stormed the disgusting house in Perris, California. They discovered several children chained to filthy beds in nightmarish room where the floors were lined with feces.

The children were the escapees’ siblings, and those responsible for the torture and imprisonment, were their very own parents.

Episode 142 - Johann “Jack” Unterweger: The Poet of Death

Wed, 08 Apr 2020 07:03:29 GMT

In Austria in 1974, Johann Unterweger was sentenced to life for the murder of a young woman. From behind bars he was soon writing beautiful poetry and painting a heartbreaking image of a man who had endured a hard childhood, made some mistakes - but who was now the poster boy for rehabilitation.

Johann went in to prison an illiterate murderer, and with the help of his many elite supporters, he came out early - as a bestselling author.

But everything wasn’t as it seemed, and this is the story of a serial killer who tricked not only his many victims, but also an entire nation.

Episode 138 - Witch-Hunt: The San Antonio Satanic Panic

Wed, 11 Mar 2020 08:03:36 GMT

In Texas from 1997 to 1998 four lesbian Latina women were accused and convicted of sexually abusing two young girls in unbelievable devil worship rituals.

Homophobia, mixed with the rampant "satanic panic" at the time sealed the fates of these young women, and with no evidence - except the testimony of their young accusers - the women were all imprisoned.

This is the story of their fight for freedom.

Nirbhaya means “the fearless one”, and it was the name given by the Indian media to a 23 year old woman - Jyoti Singh - after she was brutally gang raped on a bus by 6 men.

Jyoti’s rape and murder was a watershed moment in India, it made grisly headlines across the world, and brought tens of thousands of protesters onto the streets of Delhi to demand a change in how the nation deals with violence against women and girls.

This horrific attack still continues to dominate the news as the four remaining convicted men are set to be hanged any day now...

Wed, 26 Feb 2020 07:33:22 GMT

Levi Bellfield: The Hammer Man

In 2002 13 year old Milly Dowler vanished from a bus stop on her way home from school, this sparked one of the nation’s biggest investigations - but sadly her remains were found 6 months later. Over the next few years, one by one more women started being attacked across South London. The MO was often different, the vehicle was always different but the police were convinced that they had a serial killer on their hands...

Episode 133 - The UK's Most Prolific Rapist: Reynhard Sinaga

Wed, 05 Feb 2020 08:00:04 GMT

When 18 year old, Peter, woke up in a mystery flat after a night out he was scared. It got worse when he realised that he couldn't move his arms, and to his horror a strange man was sexually assaulting him...

That man was Reynhard Sinaga; and thanks to Peter, in January 2020, Sinaga was finally convicted of 159 sexual offences, including 136 counts of rape.

For years he'd been preying on the men of Manchester, England - attacking with impunity and going totally undetected thanks in large part to his innocent looks, and the drug GHB that he plied his victims with.

This week we uncover the man behind the mugshot.

Episode 132 - Michelle Carter & Conrad Roy: “Love You Forever”

Wed, 29 Jan 2020 08:00:03 GMT

When 18 year old Conrad Roy was found dead in his truck it looked like an obvious suicide. But as detectives started their investigation it soon became clear that this was anything but obvious. Conrad and his 17 year old online girlfriend, Michelle Carter, had exchanged a series of troubling messages in the lead up to his death. Ones in which Michelle seemingly encouraged Conrad to kill himself.

Today RedHanded asks the question - did Michelle Carter cause Roy Conrad’s suicide, or was it a tragic perfect storm based on teenager’s romantic fantasy?

Episode 124 - École Polytechnique: The Montreal Massacre

Wed, 04 Dec 2019 08:00:01 GMT

The 6th of December 2019 marks the 30 year anniversary of the Montreal massacre, a dark day in Canadian history. It was the day that gunman Marc Lépine walked into an engineering school and shot dead 14 female students.

As he shot the women, he exclaimed that he hated feminists, and that feminists had ruined his life. This sentiment was backed up in his manifesto. A manifesto that shares a great number of themes with that of Isla Vista killer Elliot Roger, or the motivations the 2018 Toronto van killer, Alek Minnassian.

But with the continued glorification and martyrdom of the likes of Lépine, Rodger and Minassian - how far have we really come?

MERCH STORE: www.RedHandedShop.com

In 1988 sisters Ericka and Julie Ingram were at Bible Camp when they were hit with a sudden memory. It was a memory of being sexually abused by their father, Paul Ingram - the Deputy Sheriff of Thurston County in Washington.

As time passed their stories became more and more terrifying; they were remembering robed men attacking them, sacrificing babies and drinking blood. Were these memories real? What had really happened?

Wed, 06 Nov 2019 08:00:00 GMT

In a filthy clinic in West Philadelphia that had been left uninspected for years, despite a sizeable drugs bust, Dr Kermit Gosnell was exploiting poor, desperate women seeking to terminate their pregnancies after the legal limit of 24 weeks.

His absolute callous recklessness makes this one of the more grisly crimes that RedHanded has delved into - given the subject matter, listener discretion is advised.

Episode 117 - The Hello Kitty Murder: Fan Man-Yee

Wed, 23 Oct 2019 07:01:00 GMT

In May 1999 a scared 14 year old girl walked into a Hong Kong police station and told the confused officers that she was being terrorised by a ghost. At first the police didn’t take her seriously, but then she elaborated that the reason this ghost was haunting her, was because she had helped to torture a young woman named Fan Man-yee to death. The girl then led police to a flat in the city, and what they found there shocked even a nation going through an already unbelievably violent decade...

Episode 116 - Hannah Foster: Followed

Wed, 16 Oct 2019 07:01:00 GMT

For weeks 17 year old Hannah Foster had been experiencing an uneasy feeling; she was sure that a strange man was following her.

Terrifyingly, she wasn’t just imagining things...

And one night, when Hannah was just yards from her front door, she was abducted. 6 days later her body was found.

The stellar police investigation that followed quickly identified a suspect, but unbelievably he had already fled the UK and disappeared to India, a nation of over a billion people. Navigating racial tensions and cross nation cooperation meant that bringing Hannah’s killer to justice was not going to be an easy task.

Episode 115 - The Yuba 5

Wed, 09 Oct 2019 07:00:03 GMT

In 1978, five men piled into a car after a local basketball game, they stopped at a shop to pick up some snacks and then they vanished. The next day their car was found on a mountain road, without a scratch, half a tank of petrol and in perfect running order. Why would the men have left the car and entered the freezing wilderness?

It wasn’t until the summer that four of the men were found, well at least their bodies were...but the discoveries only deepened the mystery; one of the men was even found in a trailer, surrounded by food - but had seemingly starved to death.

To this day Gary Mathias, man number five, remains missing - leaving us asking the question what happened to the Yuba 5?

Between 1986 and 1987 in Pennsylvania, self-appointed “Bishop” Gary Heidnik abducted six women and held them prisoner in a pit that he’d dug into the floor of his basement. The brutal torture that these women suffered at Heidnik’s hands is incomprehensible - especially when you consider that the entire time Heidnik was running his own church just meters above where these women were trapped.

In the early hours of the following morning Warriena plunged to her death from Tostee’s balcony.

This case truly is a mystery, and normally it would be impossible for anyone to deduce what had happened behind closed doors that night - but unbelievably with this story we have over 3 hours of audio recorded by Tostee himself...

Episode 111 - Tortured to Death: Kelly Anne Bates

Wed, 11 Sep 2019 07:01:00 GMT

On the 16th of April 1996 James Patterson Smith walked into Gorton police station and told officers that his 17 year old girlfriend had drowned in the bath. This was of course a lie; Kelly Anne had sustained weeks of torture at the hands of Smith - and her story left even seasoned detectives and pathologists lost for words. So brutal was the crime that it was the first time in Manchester Crown Court that jurors were offered counselling, every single one accepted.

This week’s episode is not for the faint of heart.

Qandeel Baloch was a social media sensation, women’s rights activist - and a queen of controversy.
