#218 - Shattered Memory (The Trial of Gunther Podola, UK) - Part One

This is Part One of Three of Shattered Memory.


On Monday 13th of July at roughly 3:45pm, in the hallway of 105 Onslow Square in Kensington, SW7, 30-year-old German national Gunther Podola shot Detective Sergeant Raymond Purdy dead. Traced to a nearby hotel at 95 Queen’s Gate, CID detectives and colleagues of the dead officer charged into Gunther’s room… thirty minutes later, he was escorted out, suffering bruises, weakness and amnesia. With one officer dead and the culprit with no memory of what he was being charged with, the whole crux of the trial would be ‘who is telling the truth’, the vengeful officers or the killer with no memory.


  • Date: Monday 13th of July at roughly 3:45pm (scene of the shooting)
  • Location: The Hallway, 105 Onslow square, Kensington, SW7
  • Victim: 1 (Det Sgt Raymond William Purdy)
  • Culprit: 1 (Gunther Fritz Edwin Podola)
  • Method: police brutality, corruption and assault / amnesia
