#90 - The Wormwood Scrubs Police Massacre (East Acton / Shepherds Bush, London, W12)

Today’s episode began as an ordinary morning for three police officers going about their regular duties. And what started as a simple stop-and-search on a West London street for (what would have been) a very minor traffic offence, lead to the brutal and senseless executions of three good men. This is the true story of what is often referred to as The Shepherd's Bush Murders

  • Date: Thursday 18th November 1948
  • Location: outside of 57 Braybrook Street in East Acton, London, W12, Wormwood Scrubs Prison,
  • Victims: 3 (Detective Sargent Christopher Tippett Head, Detective Constable David Stanley Wombwell and Police Constable Geoffrey Roger Fox)
  • Culprits: John Edward "Jack" Witney, John "Jock" Duddy and Harry Maurice Roberts.
