Join us for a case that is told from the unique perspective of someone who was right there, as it unfolded... as it happened - Lian Highet - one of our loyal patreon supporters. Thank you Lian. In the mid 1980's, William Beggs picked up 28-year-old Barry Oldham in a Newcastle nightclub, before taking him back to his flat for sex.   But it wasn't just sex that Beggs had an appetite for that night. He had murder in mind. After having sex with Barry Oldham, Beggs murdered him before attempting to cut off his head and legs. He was caught and given a life sentence for this senseless murder, but in a shocking twist, he ended up serving less than two years. In 1989 his conviction was quashed after appeal judges criticised evidence led by the prosecution. But he was back in prison two years later after being convicted of slashing a gay man at his flat. Beggs was released early from his six-year sentence in 1994 for good behaviour and moved to Scotland some time later, but he could not keep a lid on his violent tendencies...

This week we dive head first in to the life of Google executive Forrest Hayes. Working for Google's secretive division, Google X, Forrest was adept at keeping secrets and this came in handy when it came to leading a surreptitious double life of debauchery behind his wife's back. One Friday night, when his five kids were tucked up in bed and his wife was relaxing in the family's $3M home in Santa Cruz, California, Forrest was out on his boat, having heroin injected in to his veins by a glamorous 26 year old by the name of Alix Tichleman. Forrest had met Alix on the infamous website Seeking Arrangement and the two had agreed to meet up for a drug fuelled sex session... Unbeknown to Forrest, this liaison dangereuse would end in his untimely death. Theme music thanks to www.bensound.com and mixed by Wiltshire's finest DJ's www.discosuperstars.co.uk.
