The Blackpool Serial Killer: Episode 122

The Blackpool Serial Killer: Episode 122

Just how well do you know your family and friends and what they could be capable of doing? The podcast this week looks at a man who killed three people. A 'normal' (whatever that means) guy who was popular, had a range of interests and had a broad circle of friends. But when under stress in life, he went to a very dark place and carried out the most dreadful of crimes.
