Episode 269 - Devil’s Dorp

Lorena Bobbitt, the penis severing incident and the resulting Frankenpenis porn star hit the front pages almost 30 years ago. And since then, this is a case that has never left the public consciousness. However, there is a lot more to Lorena Bobbitt's story than a man's member and a hotdog box. There's a story with two sides and a perfect case study on how society treats survivors.

In this second instalment of our promise to deliver two bonus episodes after we won GOLD at the British Podcast Awards, we cover the heartbreaking case of Georgia Williams.  Georgia was a high-achieving and kind teenager who was always willing to help those who asked, and her killer knew this. 23-year-old Jamie Reynolds had an obsession with violent pornography and snuff movies. In May 2013 he used Georgia's good nature against her and eventually guilted the 16-year-old into coming over to his parents' house to take part in a "fake murder" photoshoot, that soon turned out to be all too real.

This week Suruthi and Hannah head into a place widely regarded as one of the most dangerous places in the Middle East right now - the notorious al-Hawl camp. It's where, in 2019, a British journalist found an 18-year-old, 9-month pregnant Shamima Begum. Soon after this discovery, Shamima Begum would have her British citizenship revoked, leaving her stateless in the desert hell-hole. In the concluding episode of this series, the girls discuss how ISIS used religion to justify sex slavery, the fall of the so-called caliphate and what should be done with individuals like Shamima Begum.

On Sunday the 22nd of February 2015, three London schoolgirls aged between 15 and 16 boarded a Turkish Airlines plane from Gatwick – they were headed to Syria, to join ISIS. In part one of this two-part series, Suruthi and Hannah explore the rise of ISIS, their recruitment tactics, and the motivations of those who willingly enter a warzone to join a death cult.

Pedro Rodrigues Filho, aka Pedhrino Matador, Killer Petey or The Brazilian Dexter, is a bit of an anomaly as far as serial killers go. He brutally killed at least 71 people, including his own father, but still many people in Brazil revere and applaud him for his "work"...So much so in fact that today, unbelievably, Filho is free and living his best life as a YouTube sensation with hundreds of thousands of followers, and millions of views.

Earlier this year we promised that if we won gold in the BPA Listeners' Choice category, we would deliver two bonus episodes chosen by the Spooky Bitches. This is the first of those episodes - The Columbine High School Massacre. The months leading up to the 20th of April 1999 - and the mindsets of both Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold - have been very well documented. And yet the story of The Columbine High School Massacre is still full of misreporting, misunderstanding, and miscommunication. In this episode of RedHanded, we aim to dispel some myths and get into the facts behind America's most infamous high-school shooting.  UK TOUR 2021 - new dates added!

Award winning champions of the people RedHanded bring you a boat themed mystery for the ages. In the early hours of New Years Day 1998 Ben Smart and Olivia Hope boarded a mystery yacht and vanished without a trace. Their bodies have never been found, yet one man has been imprisoned for the double murder. He has always maintained his innocence, but the question is can we believe Scott Watson?
