The naked body of a young woman is found in isolated woods. Police never catch her killer. Journalist Sam Poling's investigation takes her into a dark and unsettling world of sex, rape, lies and murder. And it leads her to confront the man she believes is the prime suspect. From BBC Scotland, Who Killed Emma? Is an eight-part podcast that forensically takes apart the police investigation into Emma's murder and unravels the impact of a series of coincidences and missed opportunities until a clear suspect starts to emerge.

Be prepared for all emotions with this podcast. I experienced anger, sadness, hope, shock and every feeling in between. The bravery of the many victims, blew me away. I was left sobbing by the end of podcast series. I think a tv series should be made to bring this case and result to a wider audience.
One of the best podcasts ever listened to!

This podcast did an amazing thing - they told the story of women whose voices would otherwise go unheard. They brought an animal to justice. They did the job that the police did not do. It will affect me for a long time.
