20: The Unsolved Murder of Jill Dando Part 2

After the murder of Jill Dando on the 26th April 1999, the police were struggling to find any new information on suspects. They began to consider that the perpetrator was someone who was obsessed with Jill. After searching through tips that came in in the early days of the investigation they found a person of interest, a man called Barry George. After finding out that George had a criminal background with links to stalking the police set out their case against him. The trouble was they hadn't considered the possibility that it might not have been him.
