The Cinderella Killing: Episode 18

In our celebrity culture, how we look has never been more important. Some people go to amazing lengths to achieve the look they want, but other 'normal' people - like you or me - take products to help them reach their goals.In today's episode of the UK True Crime podcast, we look at what can happen when we are unaware of exactly what we are taking. And who profits from this - as there is no doubt that someone also profits from the misery caused.Referenced siteswww.uktruecrime.comwww.patreon.com/uktruecrimehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimeSourceshttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-24074836https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4735942/Young-woman-died-taking-diet-pills.htmlhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-33419917https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-20016068https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2684903/Bodybuilder-collapsed-died-told-drink-industrial-pesticide-lose-weight-making-temperature-soar-42C.htmlhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-33677629https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-28704889https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-28213513https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/jul/08/man-killed-herbicide-weight-loss-aid-court-hearshttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3139153/Gym-boss-supplied-weight-loss-chemical-killed-bodybuilder-ran-illegal-steroid-selling-business.htmlhttps://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/bodybuilder-died-after-drinking-weedkiller-4357187https://www.mix96.co.uk/news/local/1665026/two-convicted-after-gym-goer-killed-by-lethal-steroid/https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/female-powerlifting-champion-jailed-after-4485636https://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/news/13501556.men-who-helped-run-steroid-business-are-jailed-after-death-of-wycombe-man/https://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/news/10672497.four-charged-over-gym-drug-death/https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3067951/Global-alert-killer-diet-pills-Interpol-issue-warning-deaths-six-Britons.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/aug/11/two-cleared-manslaughter-sean-cleathero-died-weedkiller-slimminghttps://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/news/9997865.family-pays-tribute-to-man-who-died-after-taking-gym-drug/https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/647184/First-arrest-after-raids-over-toxic-diet-pill-linked-to-5-deaths-including-student-21/amphttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/lifestyle/wellbeing/diet/11551680/The-diet-pill-victims-killed-by-their-quest-for-a-better-figure.htmlhttps://www.irishmirror.ie/news/world-news/female-powerlifting-champion-jailed-after-4485636https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/uk/man-dies-after-taking-gym-drug-28876078.htmlhttps://www.planningforcare.co.uk/bodybuilder-collapsed-and-died-after-being-told-to-drink-industrial-pesticide-to-lose-weight-making-his-temperature-soar-to-42c/https://old.buckscc.gov.uk/news/2015/november/trading-standards-campaign-warns-of-dnp-dangers/http://www.bucksherald.co.uk/news/more-news/pair-jailed-for-supplying-steroids-to-gym-goer-who-took-lethal-cocktail-1-6871804https://www.thesun.co.uk/archives/news/858457/diet-pills-likened-to-rat-poison-by-coroner-as-they-claim-another-life/https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/deadly-diet-pills-costing-just-6002422https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/police-hunt-supplier-of-poison-diet-pills-that-killed-teen-rugby-star-8818843.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/jan/14/dnp-victims-families-fat-burning-drug-reclassifyhttps://www.itv.com/news/update/2014-08-11/pair-acquitted-of-weedkiller-manslaughter/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g7x0hQildikhttps://www.thefreelibrary.com/%27Diet+pills%27+share+deadly+past+with+wartime+shells%3b+Double+danger+of...-a0411583720https://www.church-papers.com/lethal-dnp-diet-pills-still-on-sale-despite-crackdown-bbc-finds-bbc-news/https://www.elitedaily.com/life/sad-truth-about-diet-pills/1038336https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/10022925/The-deadly-trail-of-the-killer-slimming-drug-DNP.htmlhttps://www.facebook.com/sean.cleathero.7 Hosted on Acast.

Harry and Megan Tooze lived on a remote farm in the Vale of Glamorgan and enjoyed a quiet, private retirement. But one day in the summer of 1993, that life was shattered as both were killed in what was described as a "brutal, macabre execution".

Living close to your neighbours is not always easy. We can't choose who lives near us and we can sometimes not particularly like how they choose to live their lives. When Alison Morrison and her family moved to Harrow in north-west London there were problems immediately with her neighbour Trevor Gibbon, who moaned about the noise her son made skateboarding. But nobody could have predicted the shocking conclusion to this neighbours dispute.Referenced siteswww.uktruecrime.comwww.patreon.com/uktruecrimehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrimeSourceshttps://www.harrowtimes.co.uk/news/13361145.murderer-trevor-gibbon-jailed-for-life-at-old-bailey-for-merciless-attack-on-defenceless-charity-worker-alison-morrison/https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/28-years-jail-for-man-who-stabbed-a-mother-to-death-in-three-year-neighbour-war-10354864.htmlhttps://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/r-v-gibbon-sentencing.pdfhttps://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/woman-stabbed-to-death-over-noise-dispute-with-her-neighbour-10321897.htmlhttps://metro.co.uk/2015/06/25/man-found-guilty-of-stabbing-mother-of-one-33-times-over-a-neighbour-dispute-5266227/https://www.mentalhealthforum.net/forum/threads/mental-health-news-this-week.116058/https://www.pressreader.com/uk/daily-star/20150701/281694023436330https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-33324781 Hosted on Acast.
