6. The Original Dr. Death: Harold Shipman - Part 1

6. The Original Dr. Death: Harold Shipman - Part 1

Harold Shipman was a beloved and trusted doctor in his community of Hyde, Greater Manchester where he served as a general practitioner for over 20 years - that was until he became the prime suspect in the murder of 82-year old grandmother, Kathleen Grundy. The investigation that followed was one of the largest in Britain’s history, and exposed one of the most prolific serial killers of all time. Join Tab and Carly this week as we dive deep into the crimes and detection of Dr. Harold Shipman - and all of the opportunities to bring him to justice that were missed during his 20-year-long reign of terror.
