  • Who killed the Essex Boys? – Why an infamous conviction may be fatally flawed

    Who killed the Essex Boys? – Why an infamous conviction may be fatally flawed
    May 22 2025
    The infamous Essex Boys triple murder is the case that will not die. Three men – Pat Tate, Tony Tucker, and Craig Rolfe – were found shot dead in a Range Rover in rural Essex in December 1995. Their brutal deaths shocked the nation and led to lurid speculation linking them to the Ecstasy-related death of teenager Leah Betts just weeks earlier. Two men, Jack Whomes and Michael Steele, were convicted in 1998 but always protested their innocence. Now, decades later, the case is being reviewed again by the Criminal Cases Review Commission. Could the real killers still be free? Former Met Police detective-turned-private investigator David McKelvey once dismissed doubts about the case, until disturbing evidence emerged. From chaotic crime scenes to mishandled evidence, he talks us through an investigation that inspired books, films, and endless questions. With Steele set to walk free we ask: Did the police get it wrong? And what happens if the system has jailed the wrong men? • Follow Crime Scene on BlueSky.
