Buried Evidence

True Crime

Is true crime our latest obsession, or just history's oldest guilty pleasure? A brand-new exploration of historical true crime through the ages, exposes why we should be looking over our shoulders to the past with bestselling historian, Rebecca Rideal & Archaeologist, Professor Raksha Dave. Together they will unpack the buried stories of crime and uncover the darkest chapters of criminal history, from victims and investigators to perpetrators and punishments. Using archaeology as a key investigative tool, Raksha and Rebecca will uncover how a dig separates fact from folklore. Such as Otzi the Iceman - a body from 3300BCE discovered in 1991 - where the archeological examination of his bones provided a window into the last 48 hours of someone living thousands of years ago. Or the site discovery of The Salem Witch Trials, where a dig immediately dispelled the stories of gallows at the top of the hill and formal burials. Using archaeology, history and modern forensic science, Buried Evidence reopens some of the world's oldest cold cases to separate folklore from fact. Hosted on Acast.

Six-year-old Bebe King, seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe, and nine-year-old Alice da Silva Aguiar were killed when he went on the rampage with a kitchen knife, as they and other children made friendship bracelets. Today as the families of the girls braced themselves for a trial, he changed his pleas to guilty. Caroline and Liz will outline what we now know about what happened on that day, but also in the days, weeks, months and years before. How police believe he planned to attack pupils at his previous school, and how he was referred to the Government’s Prevent programme years before.

True Crime
In 2003, 14-year-old Charlene Downes mysteriously vanished from her hometown of Blackpool. Chilling stories started to spread. And when two men are arrested for murdering Charlene, they are accused of cutting up her body – and using her remains as kebab meat. The story of what happened to this young girl has haunted Blackpool for more than twenty years. It has twisted and turned, taking in police, paedophiles, and far-right protests. But not all is as it seems – and so much of this story remains hidden in the shadows. Broadcaster Nicola Thorp is the same age as Charlene. She grew up in Blackpool too. Now, Nicola is revisiting this case – to uncover the truth, and the lies, about what really happened to Charlene. After all, Somebody knows Something. If you have any information about the disappearance of Charlene Downes, you can contact us at charlene@thecrimedesk.com. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
