36 - Holly and Jessica: The Soham Murders Mens Rea: A true crime podcast
-
- Society & Culture
In 2002, two ten year old girls - Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman - went missing in the quiet and idyllic English town of Soham. It quickly became apparent that the girls had not simply wandered off. What followed was two week search for them, and the revelation that a terrible crime had taken place.
The shocking truth was that the girls had been murdered by a member of their community, someone they knew. And someone they trusted.
