S18E02 | Catherine Wells-Burr (Ashill, Somerset, 2012)

S18E02 | Catherine Wells-Burr (Ashill, Somerset, 2012)

In September 2012, the town of Chard in Somerset awoke to devastating news - a car had been found engulfed in flames by the side of the A358, with the body of a young woman inside.


23-year-old Catherine Wells-Burr had a bright future ahead of her. Intelligent, hard-working, and deeply loved by her family, her brutal murder shocked the local community.


As the investigation unfolded, police uncovered a disturbing plot driven by greed and betrayal. Catherine had been targeted not by a stranger, but by the one person she trusted the most.


What followed was a complex and chilling case involving deceit, manipulation, and a calculated plan to cash in on a life insurance policy that had only not long been taken out.
