235: The Murder of A Millionaire - December 15 2019

May 3rd: Suzy Lamplugh Born (1961) Sometimes there is a clear answer to a case but, for one reason or another, the evidence isn’t enough to land a conviction. On May 3rd 1961 a young woman was born who would, at the age of 25, suddenly disappear while in the company of a mystery man. A man who, police are certain, they have identified but have never been able to convict for her abduction and murder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Suzy_Lamplugh, https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/main-suspect-suzy-lamplugh-murder-27214138, https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/suzy-lamplughs-disappearance-familys-last-27219878, https://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk/crime-files/disappearance-of-suzy-lamplugh, https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/suzy-lamplugh-killer-prison-deathbed-b2099674.html, https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/1515149/suzy-lamplugh-estate-agent-disappear-trust-2018-search/, https://metro.co.uk/2022/06/13/prime-suspect-in-1986-murder-of-suzy-lamplugh-is-on-his-deathbed-16816058/, Learn more about your ad choices.
