    EP134: The Murder Of Amber Hagerman, Origins Of The Amber Alert

    Crime talk timestamp : 12:42 minutes in It was January 13th 1996 in Arlington, Texas as 9 year old Amber Hagerman was riding her bike in an abandoned car park with her little brother. As it was mere yards from her grandparents home & also broad daylight in the middle of the afternoon no one would have thought that anything bad could happen. However, this was not the case & the lives of Amber's family were about to be turned upside down forever in a horrific turn of events . Because Amber was suddenly snatched from her bike by a stranger, thrown screaming into a truck & in a matter of seconds she had completely vanished never to be seen alive again.  After a four day intense search & numerous media appeals to her abductor to release the little girl, Amber was tragically found murdered in a creek. Although she could not be saved, since her horrific murder she has posthumously helped to save the lives of thousands of other children. This is thanks to an emergency alert system that was put in place & rolled out across the United States. It meant whenever a child was abducted law enforcement would issue an urgent alert telling the public to be on the lookout for the child, abductor or vehicle in which they were taken in. A critical tool that has proven to be highly effective in saving many abducted children that is known as the 'Amber Alert' , named in honour of Amber Hagerman . Although she leaves behind an incredible legacy it is also so important to know & remember that Amber's own abduction & murder is still sadly unsolved to this day.  Twenty nine years have passed but her killer could still be out there somewhere, & her family deserves to have justice for their little girl.  A girl who really loved the colour pink, climbing trees & riding her bike. Arlington police department are still actively working to solve her case & are also hoping advances in DNA technology may finally help narrow down her killer.....

    EP131: Colin Pitchfork 'The Pathway Killer' Part 2

    Crime Talk Timestamp: 11:28 minutes in This is the concluding part to our deep dive into the heinous case of British school girl killer Colin Pitchfork. After attacking, raping & killing 15 year old Lynda Mann in 1983 he left her body on a deserted footpath in Narborough, Leicestershire along with his DNA at the crime scene.  He then slipped back into anonymity, living his normal life & normal job for a few more years, scarily able to hide behind the facade of a normal family man with ease. But in 1986 his strong compulsion to attack & kill took over once again when he murdered 15 year old Dawn Ashworth leaving her body by an isolated footpath again with DNA present. But this time, unbeknownst to father of two Pitchfork something had changed between his first & second murders. Local scientists had pioneered a ground breaking new way to identify criminals using a brand new technique in forensic science, called DNA profiling. This brand new technique that was discovered right before Dawn was murdered soon helped to rule out one young suspect who had already been incarcerated for this crime that he did not commit.  Then it helped to decipher who the real killer was after police learned local baker Pitchfork had deceptively paid a colleague to submit his own DNA in place of Pitchforks so he wouldn't be identified .... Two young innocent girls lost their lives at the hands of a wicked, cruel, sadistic sexual predator before he was finally identified. Such was the strength of his sadistic sexual compulsions there was no doubt in investigators minds he would have continued to kill if DNA profiling not been used for the first time ever to identify him & put him behind bars.

    EP130: Colin Pitchfork 'The Pathway Killer' Part 1

    To skip straight to the case-12:52 DNA fingerprinting s a valuable forensic tool that has been hugely instrumental in helping police identify criminals.But where did it  begin?  When did this cutting edge technology become available leading to millions of murders being solved the world over? The answer to this takes us back to 1983 in Leicestershire, England when 15 year old Lynda Mann was brutally sexually assaulted & murdered.  Searches for her killer proved fruitless, until another young girl was murdered three years later. But this time police had a new trick up their sleeve, a ground breaking advancement in forensic science.  DNA fingerprinting has since put millions of criminals behind bars ... Police did a sweep of all local men asking them to submit dna to eliminate them from the murders .  But when a private conversation is overheard of a man admitting to giving his own dna in place of a friends. This information leads police to the man who hadn't wanted to submit his own DNA, the man who had killed the two victims. The man with the most serial killery name I've ever heard Colin Pitchfork, a local married father. Pitchfork went down in history as being the first murderer ever to be convicted using DNA evidence making him part of British Criminological history & not in a good way....  The British public were in uproar when he was released in 2021 after serving 33 years, before being recalled to prison for breaking rules of his probation.  But the question remains will he stay behind bars, or will this child killer be released to live amongst us as a free man, who is free to use his new name once again ..?  This is episode 130  Colin Pitchfork The Pathway Killer : Part 1   Sources had/.org/ Wikipedia / bbc.com/ Sky News.com/ the guardian.com/ medical detectives/ Murderpedia / See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
