The Lost Girls: Part 9 - Jennifer

The new red bicycle had fast become her pride and joy, all of her friends had seen it, and one sunny afternoon in August 1981, nine year old Jennifer Cardy set off from her home in Ballinderry to cycle the short distance to show the first friend she had it again, so excited was she.

As a small Datsun van passed her as she did, Jennifer had no idea that a predator, a monster, was waiting for her. It would take thirty years, but the wheels of justice did eventually turn for Jennifer, and the individual who made her the Lost Girl we haven't yet mentioned through the arc finally stood in the dock. He needs no introduction, or is deserving of her name being spoken.

This is Jennifer's story.

The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, including disturbing descriptions of a sexual nature and involving children, that some listeners may find extremely disturbing or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening in.
