The story this week is from South Wales and is as shocking a story as I have ever brought to you on the UK True Crime Podcast. It is hard to comprehend that in the small town of Maesteg, lived a man with an obsession for the crimes of Fred & Rose West and fantasised about travelling the county abducting, assaulting and murdering innocent women. In this episode, we hear how this fantasy become a terrifying reality.

In this special episode, I revisit the murder of Vicky Hall in Felixstowe in 1999.

Today, serial killer Steve Wright was sentenced for Vicky’s murder, his sixth known killing. I break down the developments from court at the sentencing hearing, reflect on the police investigation and its unanswered questions, explore why Wright may have chosen to confess after so many years, and consider what this case means for the possibility of further undiscovered victims.

When a workplace affair ends, the fallout doesn’t stay private. Loyalties fracture, tension poisons the environment, and what was once whispered behind closed doors becomes impossible to escape. Careers, reputations, and mental health can all be collateral damage when personal betrayal collides with professional life.

In the story today from Norfolk, the end of an affair leads to one person looking for revenge and ends in the most shocking violence.

Janet Murgatroyd was just 20 when she was killed. A student at the University of Central Lancashire, and a part-time staff member with Lancashire Police, she had so much to look forward to and enjoy. But tragically, her body was found in the River Ribble in Preston after a night out in 1996.

Today I have re-released my coverage of her murder from June 2017 as nobody has still been convicted of Janet's murder.

Anyone with information can call Lancaster Police on 101.

Alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 5555111.

All the data tells us that we are most likely to be harmed by those we know. But for most of us our real nightmares are about being snatched by a total stranger in the dark of the night when nobody is around to help us. This week on the UK True Crime Podcast from Yorkshire, this is exactly the terrifying crime at the heart of our story.
