S19E01 | Pearl Gamble (Newry, Counties Down and Armagh, 1961)

S19E01 | Pearl Gamble (Newry, Counties Down and Armagh, 1961)

In January 1961, the close-knit community of Newry in Northern Ireland was shaken to its core when a local teenager failed to return home from a Friday night dance event. As concern gave way to alarm, a major search effort was launched, but what police eventually uncovered would horrify even the most seasoned officers.


19-year-old Pearl Gamble was a bright and popular shop assistant with a promising future ahead of her. Her sudden and violent death cast a long shadow over the town, prompting a wide-ranging investigation that gripped the nation and unsettled a community where doors were rarely locked.


As suspicion began to gather around a familiar face, the case took on a chilling intensity, culminating in a courtroom drama that would leave its mark on legal history.
