DETECTIVES | The London Bombings

Crime Insiders

It’s July 7th 2005, and it’s a typically busy morning on London’s underground. It’s like any other day. But then, simultaneously, three trains and a double decker bus explode. 

Smoke fills the carriages, and panic and devastation takes over London. 

Detective Gary Powell was sitting at his desk when he heard what we now know as the 7/7 terrorist attacks.

Gary sits down with host Brent Sanders to talk about this case, and others from his time in the counter terrorism unit of the UK police.
