Murder in Rural Cornwall: Episode 124

In warm weather, Bournemouth on the south coast of England is a nice place to spend some time.  On the summer evening when we join the story, 26 year old Jong-Ok Shin was walking home from a Bournemouth nightclub, and just metres from the door of her home when she was attacked and she tragically died from her injuries. There were no witnesses to this crime.Shortly afterwards, local drug addict Omar Benguit was arrested and convicted of murder and over 20 years later he is still in prison. But was he guilty of this dreadful crime?Sources:http://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWCA/Crim/2014/690.htmlhttp://www.homepage-link.to/justice/judgements/benguit/Scan%2018.pdfhttps://www.thejusticegap.com/omar-benguit-all-i-ever-wanted-was-the-truth-to-come-out-i-am-innocent/https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280658448_A_Briefing_Paper_on_Issues_and_Events_Surrounding_the_Omar_Benguit_Case_Charminster_and_the_Murder_of_Jong_Oki_Shin_12th_July_2002https://thetab.com/uk/2021/05/05/unsolved-an-alibi-for-omar-benguit-true-crime-jong-ok-shin-case-204043http://www.omarbenguit.co.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

This week, we head to the north-west of England and a local theatre group. The theatre is a serious business here and the productions put on are of a very high quality, but it is also very sociable. In the episode this week, two couples from the group begin socialising, but then Chris Linaker and Jenny Cupit begin a very passionate 16 month affair, where they explore their sexual boundaries. But as we have seen so often on the UK True Crime podcast, an affair which is about sex for one party and love for another, often ends badly - and this week, we see a shocking and violent outcome.1, Please support my sponsorUK True Crime Podcast listeners get 10% off their first month at www.BetterHelp.com/TRUECRIME. 2, Buy tickets for my live show in Manchester in Octoberhttps://www.murdermiletours.com/liveshow.html?fbclid=IwAR3c-Ml3b0N9QKTu1Y7QYKMdBcHwyIMUdPlSyZ3Wo6TU4H737kWlYb7t-TA3, Please buy my book 'Gone Fishing' about the life and crimes of Angus Sinclairhttps://mangobooks.co.uk/products/gone-fishing4, Other referenced siteswww.patreon.com/uktruecrimehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimewww.uktruecrime.com4, Sourceshttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/270492.stmhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/264675.stmhttps://www.theguardian.com/uk/1999/feb/03/davidwardhttp://www.troubleandstrife.org/articles/issue-39/bad-press/https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/5306260.i-wish-to-rebuild-a-life-for-my-children/https://www.warringtonguardian.co.uk/news/5306260.i-wish-to-rebuild-a-life-for-my-children/https://www.thefreelibrary.com/INNOCENCE+KILLED+BY+ENVY%3B+Blameless+Kathryn+was+a+victim+of+sordid...-a060423324 Hosted on Acast.
