FORENSICS | Who murdered Billie Jo Jenkins?

In a quiet English town, 13-year-old Billie Jo Jenkins was brutally murdered on the porch of her foster home. Her foster father, Sion Jenkins, was convicted of the crime, but after two retrials, he was acquitted in 2006 - leaving one of the UK's most notorious murders unsolved. Despite his acquittal, the jury never delivered a ‘not guilty’ verdict, making this case even more perplexing. Professor Adrian Linacre is a forensic blood spatter expert, who’s worked on hundreds of cases across the world, including the Billie Jo Jenkins murder investigation. In this episode, uncover the twists and turns in this highly controversial case, go inside the courtroom drama, and unravel the delicate balance between forensic science and justice.

FORENSICS | A Meatball Murder Plot?

Does your family have a favourite recipe, a meal that feels like home? For Mario, that was his wife’s famous spaghetti and meatballs. But one evening, what should have been a comforting dish left him feeling... uneasy. And then, it happened again and again. Was it just a bad batch—or something far more sinister? In this episode, meet John Franceschini, a forensic chemist with over 30 years of experience in private labs. Outside the reach of police or government, he uncovers the truth about what's really on our plates, and in our drugs. Join host Kathryn Fox and dive into not one, but two cases of alleged food poisoning, the elusive dangers of synthetic drugs, and why independent forensic labs may be the last line of defense in the search for truth.

DETECTIVES | How a cop became a killer

On the 3rd of March 2021, 33 year old Sarah Everard was kidnapped and murdered in South London. A week after her disappearance, police officer Wayne Couzens was arrested and charged. He had used his badge to lure Sarah into his car by lying, and saying she was in breach of Covid Protocols. The case became a watershed moment in the UK, devastating the community and leaving the nation understandably distrusting of the police. Steve Gaskin, a former Detective, became obsessed with the case and the failings of the MET police that led to Sarah’s murder. Steve joined host Brent Sanders to discuss this case and the psychology of offending. This content contains references to men's violence against women.
