    Episode 38 - Mary Bell, Britain’s Youngest Female Killer

    Shocking is the only word we can think of to describe this case. Mary started her killing the day before she turned 11.  She was raised in the worst environment imaginable and was certainly neglected and abused by those who should have protected her.  Two young boys would die and many more were hurt before she was stopped. But more importantly, before she was helped.  In this case we see the whole situation, we know why it happened and we see the rehabilitation. It is possible but you, like us, will wish more was done sooner.  You can listen wherever you get your podcasts or by visiting our website at www.grievousbodilyharmpodcast.com Email us at grievousbodilyharmpodcast@gmail.com   Please like, subscribe and share.

    Episode 37 - Ella Douglas

    Today’s case is one from my dad’s home town of Dumfries in Scotland. A man, on a whim, with no red flags or criminal history, decided to murder a woman he claimed to love after she simply asked him if he wanted a cup of tea. After the killing, he sat with the body for 8 hours before hiding it in a grotesque and unimaginable way.    Her family and friends were searching for her but it would take 10 months for the truth to come out. Unfortunately the punishment didn’t match the crime and this man practically got away with a cold blooded killing.    You can listen wherever you get your podcasts or by visiting our website at www.grievousbodilyharmpodcast.com Email us at grievousbodilyharmpodcast@gmail.com   Please like, subscribe and share.

    Episode 36 - The Jigsaw Murders

    This case has everything! I mean, hi, happy Thursday…..this case has everything! It is the story of a brutal murderer whose level of butchery was intense and resulted in him being dubbed ‘The Jigsaw Killer’. It’s a rollercoaster of a tale, we travel from India to the Middle East, England and Scotland.  I chose it because it takes place around where my family is from, or part of it does, but really for the leap that was made in forensic science because of it.  What should have been an incredibly difficult case to solve, even with today’s technology, was closed relatively quickly thanks to great police work and great science. A monster was caught before he could do any more butchering and the role that forensics can play in solving a crime was suddenly noticed by law enforcement.  You can listen wherever you get your podcasts or by visiting our website at  http://www.grievousbodilyharmpodcast.com Email us at grievousbodilyharmpodcast@gmail.com Please like, subscribe and share.

    Episode 35 - Brandi Hicks and Elizabeth Reiser

    Today’s episode is the last of our 4 survivor tales where we highlight the cases of some bad ass women in honor of Women’s History Month. This one is a little different though, it’s a survivor tales and, unfortunately, a murder.  In 2000 two friends were enjoying some down time after their final exams and looking forward to their high school graduation which was just a matter of days away. As the pair left Hollywood Video they met a monster. He would brutally murder Elizabeth and do his best to kill Brandi too.  This case is so tragic but in the darkest of moments there can still be light. Brandi survived, the killer’s family refused to shield him and Elizabeth’s family would show what true love and forgiveness really are.  You can listen wherever you get your podcasts or by visiting our website at www.grievousbodilyharmpodcast.com Email us at grievousbodilyharmpodcast@gmail.com Please like, subscribe and share.
