Horror At The Teddy Bears Picnic

I'm pleased to have handed over writing duties to friend of the show Julia Crane for a tale of horror and heroism combined this week on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, as we head back to the mid 1990's, to a school in Wolverhampton, in the West Midlands. The title of the episode will become self-explanatory, but if it's a case you don't already know or remember - i'm sure that it's one you won't forget in a hurry.

The episode this week contains descriptions of crimes and events, involving children, that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
