- The Psychology of a Serial Killer is a forensic examination of those who kill. In Series 1, we turn the scalpel inward on doctors who kill: trusted professionals who betrayed their oath to save lives. From the calculated crimes of Dr Harold Shipman to the dark legacy of Dr John Bodkin-Adams, this series delves deep into the minds, methods, and motivations of medical murderers. Hosted by Dr Andrew Johns, a leading forensic psychiatrist who spent years inside Broadmoor Hospital with some of Britain’s most infamous killers, and Dr Harry Brunjes, physician, expert witness, and senior figure in medical ethics, The Psychology of a Serial Killer is where medicine meets malice. Hosts: Dr Andrew Johns, Dr Harry Brunjes Producer: Philip Wilding Editor: Chelsey Moore Sound Design: John Scott Exec Producer: Jamie East Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Join today at thecrimedesk.com In September 2022, during a police stop in Streatham, South London, a firearms officer shot at Chris Kaba, who had been attempting to flee from police in his Audi Q8. The shot struck Kaba in the head, resulting in his death. The officer accused of firing that shot was an officer with the codename NX121. Over a year later and the firearms officer in question was charged and later named as officer Martyn Blake. The decision to name him was controversial and led to hundreds of Met Police officers giving up their firearms permits. In this series of The Trial, George Odling and Caroline Cheetham bring you the evidence from the Old Bailey where Blake is on trial accused of murder. He denies the charge. Welcome to The Trial of Officer Blake. The Trial goes behind the headlines of some of the biggest trials in the world. We take you into the courtroom, bringing you the detail as the evidence unfolds, examining key moments and carrying out exclusive interviews with detectives, victims, and experts. Hosted on Acast.

- 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.

Join today at thecrimedesk.com Axel Rudakubana has admitted carrying out the attacks on a Southport dance school which claimed the lives of three little girls. 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.
