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.

As you know, in the true crime world there might be an idiot or two....ok, maybe three...but in the nine years I have been involved in podcasting I have met some really lovely people. One of these is Mark, the co-host of the Seeing Red podcast and he is someone I always find myself chatting to at the bar late into the night at any event. He is always so generous with his knowledge and insights and is such a wonderful person and great company.

Mark has a brand new podcast launching today, Dead Famous. Here is the first episode of Mark's brand new podcast about the death of Caroline Flack. Please do take a listen and let me know your thoughts...

You may have listened to the 'True Crime Round Up' this year, where me and Stuart, host of the British Murders Podcast, talked about all things true crime once a month. Well, due to the popularity of this show we now release it every Wednesday on a separate feed and it is called the 'True Crime Catch Up'. You can listen every week on the usual podcast apps or you can watch us on YouTube. The link below will take you to Spotify, Apply and YouTube and if you enjoy the show, please do follow us there so we can continue to grow the show.

This week, we look at the shocking 1980 murder of John Lennon in New York which shocked the world. What followed raised uncomfortable questions that continue to surface after acts of extreme violence.

In this podcast, we examine the murder and the intense focus placed on The Catcher in the Rye, the book carried by his killer, Mark David Chapman. We explore how quickly media attention shifted from the crime itself to the idea that books, films, and popular culture can influence real-world violence, and whether that connection stands up to scrutiny.
