Serial Killer Steve Wright SENTENCED Over 1999 Victoria Hall Murder

More than 25 years after the murder of 17-year-old Victoria Hall in Felixstowe, serial killer Steve Wright has returned to court to confess to the crime. Already serving a whole life order for the 2006 Ipswich murders of five women, Wright was handed an additional 40-year sentence, but his sudden admission has raised serious questions. Why did he choose to speak now, what investigative opportunities were missed in 1999, and could earlier police action have saved lives? In this episode we examine the Victoria Hall case, the attempted abductions that preceded it, and the broader implications of Wright’s confession. We discuss potential additional victims, expert insight from Professor David Wilson, speculation surrounding unsolved cases, and the importance of responsible media reporting - particularly when victims are vulnerable. As always, we focus on accountability, context, and remembering the people whose lives were taken, not just the person responsible.

Lucy Letby Netflix Documentary Reignites Divisive Case

Lucy Letby is back in the headlines as Netflix releases 'The Investigation of Lucy Letby', reigniting debate, strong emotions, and public discussion around her case. In this episode we unpack the latest developments, including the decision not to pursue further charges, and why the documentary has sparked renewed interest. To be absolutely clear, nothing we discuss suggests Lucy Letby is innocent. She remains convicted and is serving 15x Whole Life Orders. Instead, we explore why some cases attract organised belief in innocence, how expert evidence is interpreted by the public, and whether questioning verdicts strengthens or undermines justice. We also put the conversation into context with historic and recent miscarriages of justice, including Timothy Evans and Peter Sullivan, highlighting what happens when doubt enters the system and the limits of certainty in the justice system.

Have you Ever Wanted to Disappear?

What is the history of the Island of Pitcairn, its myths and realities? Born from the 1789 Mutiny, the mutineers, led by Fletcher Christian stumble across Pitcairn. Handily wrongly located on maps, this is their opportunity to escape the British Navy and disappear, today all Pitcairn families are descended from the mutineers and their Tahitian ‘wives’. But they were not a contented community, marked by violence and death, which are marked on the Island in place names. Abuse survivor Glenda, now living in the UK, paints a vivid picture of life on the Island, eating breadfruit, swimming, the unique language, the red volcanic dirt. But her memories are not all full of sunshine. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Facial Recognition Technology: Is the UK Becoming a Surveillance State?

Facial recognition technology is expanding fast across the UK - from police vans and high streets to pubs, stadiums, and even private doorbell cameras - and many are asking whether we’re stepping into a world George Orwell warned us about decades ago. In this video, we break down what the UK Government’s new facial-recognition plans actually mean, why police forces are being encouraged to ramp up live and retrospective scanning, and how public opinion has shifted as the technology becomes impossible to avoid. We explore the accuracy concerns, the bias warnings, and the growing fear that innocent people could be misidentified in real time. We also look at the debate around prevention vs reaction: can facial recognition genuinely stop violent crimes before they happen, or does it only identify offenders after tragedy has already unfolded? With comparisons to 1984 and Big Brother, rising privacy concerns, and new government pledges to expand biometrics nationwide, this episode asks whether increased surveillance is making us safer - or simply more watched.
