    Episode 54: The Darkest Betrayal - The Crimes of Kieren Lynch

    Kieren Lynch masqueraded himself as a loving husband and doting father. But whilst that was once true, over time his behaviour started to change. When his wife left him to try to give her and her daughters a happier life, Kieren started a campaign of terror against her and even his children.

    But his campaign ended in one of the most horrific acts of revenge imaginable, whilst his wife remained on the phone to 999, asking for the police, who had had many chances to stop this from happening. But they didn't.

    This is Real.
