In 2014, the city of Hong Kong was shaken by the brutal rape, torture and murders of two sex workers – one of the worst cases its criminal justice system had ever dealt with. Even more shocking – the killings had been carried out by a wealthy, UK investment banker. A sexual predator of the highest order, he had found somewhere overseas where he could play out his darkest fantasies with deadly consequences. This is what happens when a narcissistic, sadistic sexual psychopath uses his western wealth to exploit the vulnerable. This is the case of Rurik Jutting.
In 2011, Sacramento, California, a mother came round after an epileptic seizure to discover her daughter lying next to her – unresponsive and badly burned.

This is what happens when the line between genuine illness and cold-blooded murder becomes blurred. This is the case of Ka Yang.
In 2021, an online hunter group helped bring a 66-year-old predator to justice – but his activities proved to be just the tip of the iceberg.

Even more shocking, the main perpetrator of this was female. This is what happens when we ignore the fact that women can be sex offenders. This is the case of Vicki Bevan.
In 1994, South Carolina, a 15-year-old girl was killed in a truly horrific way, when a sexual assault turned deadly. The murder weapon – a pipe bomb.

The worst crimes are those committed against children – the most vulnerable members of our society. In 2017, unexplained injuries began appearing on a toddler’s body.

In 2018, Massachusetts, 20-year-old Brandon Chicklis disappeared. His severely decomposed body was discovered weeks later.

In 2003, Houston, Texas, an entire family was almost wiped out by a masked intruder who had broken into their home.

This is the case of Kelly Turner.

Moments later, she seemingly vanished off the face of the Earth. Her body was found 10 days later.

On a summer’s night in August 2022, Liverpool, a ruthless criminal pursued a man through the streets with deadly intent. He had managed to injure him, but had failed to deliver the fatal shot.

This is the murder of Olivia Pratt-Korbel.
In the UK, there have been many infamous, notorious criminals. However, one face stands out amongst the others – one that is instantly recognisable for all the wrong reasons. It’s the face of a man who has spent nearly 50 years behind bars, despite never having killed or raped anyone, or harmed a child. This year, he had the chance of freedom. But will he ever be fit for release, or has the prison system created a monster that must be caged forever? I’ll be examining his notorious behaviour behind bars and the parole board’s decision on whether or not to release him. This is the story of the UK’s most violent prisoner. This is the case of Charles Bronson!
In August 2021, Leila Borrington contacted emergency services, claiming her 3-year-old stepson had fallen and hit his head at her home in Nottingham, England.

This is what happens when a predator abuses their position of care. This is the killing of Harvey Borrington.
On a summer’s day in July 2011, Oslo was subjected to two horrific terror attacks, acts of mass murder, perpetrated by one man – someone who believed in male superiority, Christian fundamentalism and a white Europe, and who was vehemently opposed to the Labour government’s stance on immigration and multiculturalism. It was the worst attack on Norwegian soil since the Second World War and claimed the lives of 77 people – many of them teenagers. This is what happens when nature and nurture creates a monster without empathy or remorse. This is the case of Anders Breivik,
In May 2020, a young woman in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, posted a graphic account onFacebook, detailing the years of abuse.The post, complete with photos of the serious injuries she had suffered, rapidly went viral.

However, as police investigated these latest allegations, they quickly discovered that everything was not as it seemed. This is what happens when baseless lies and false accusations lead to trial by social media. This is the case of Eleanor Williams!
In May 2008, an 18-year-old man vanished whilst walking in forests near his home in Woodland Park, Colorado. His disappearance remained a mystery for 7 years, until his body was finally found.

This is what happens when fact proves stranger than fiction. This is the mysterious death of Joshua Maddux.
In October 2020, a 16-year-old disabled girl was found dead at her home in Powis
, Wales.

This is what happens when Covid lockdown causes the most vulnerable in our society to be forgotten. This is the killing of Kaylea Titford.
In March 1987, a private investigator was found dead in the car park of the local pub. It would become the most investigated unsolved murder in the history of the Metropolitan Police. Multiple enquiries into the killing would reveal evidence of police cover-ups and corruption – it was a case which authorities wouldn’t, rather than couldn’t, solve. More than 3 decades on, no one has been convicted for the crime. This is what happens when law enforcement’s reputation ranks higher than justice. This is the unsolved murder of Daniel Morgan.
In November 2001, Columbia, Missouri, a sports editor was strangeled and beaten in the carpark of his workplace. With little forensic evidence and no leads, the case went cold – until 2 years later, when a teenager claimed responsibility for the crime and, in the process, implicated one of his friends. Both were subsequently imprisoned for murder – but had the right men been convicted, or had there been a miscarriage of justice? This is what happens when a prosecutor will do whatever it takes to win, regardless of the cost. This is the case of Ryan Ferguson.
In April 1999, a famous TV personality was gunned down on the doorstep of her home in Fulham, London. Whilst a nation reeled in shock, a murder inquiry was launched that would become the biggest ever conducted by the Metropolitan Police and the largest criminal investigation since the hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper. This is one of the most notorious unsolved crimes of the 20 th century. This is the murder of Jill Dando.
In August 1972, a teenage girl vanished after leaving her home in Springfield, New Jersey, USA. The discovery of her decomposed remains 6-weeks later would lead to decades of speculation as to how she died, along with rumours of witchcraft and the occult. 50 years on, the cause of her death remains unsolved and has become the stuff of urban legend.

This is the mysterious case of Jeannette DePalma.

In June 2015, Missouri, a 48-year-old woman was found brutally stabbed to death in her home. Her disabled, wheelchair-bound daughter was missing, and neighbours feared the worse.

This is what happens when a mother’s love isn’t what it seems. This is the case of Gypsy Rose Blanchard.
In Anchorage, Alaska, 2019, a 19-year-old woman was murdered – killed execution-style, shot in the head.

In May 2018, County Kildare, Ireland, the body of a 14-year-old girl was discovered in an abandoned farmhouse. A lonely teenager, she had only craved friendship, but instead had been mercilessly bullied in school and online, before being brutalised and murdered.

This is what happens when children kill children. This is the murder of Ana Kriégel.
In November 2021, Sussex, UK, a female escort worker disappeared. After a male suspect was identified, the police investigation discovered that another female escort had vanished 6-months earlier and was linked to the same man. The search for bodies would focus on an area of remote farmland, leased by the suspect, and police would soon build a picture of the horrors that had occurred there. This is what happens when a psychopathic predator preys on the vulnerable. This is the case of Mark Brown.
In January 2018, the dismembered remains of a young woman were found in Macerata, Italy. The suspected perpetrator – an African immigrant. Allegations of voodoo sacrifices and connections to the Nigerian mafia, combined with the politicisation of the murder by the country’s right-wing parties, inflamed tensions around the contentious issue of immigration – with devastating consequences. This is what happens when a terrible crime is used to justify a terrible retribution. This is the murder of Pamela Mastropietro.
In June 1983, Houston, Texas, 2 people were killed with a pickaxe – the kind of grisly double murder that would dominate the headlines any day of the week. But this crime captured more attention than usual – because the killer was a 5 foot 3, 121-pound woman. Her brutal slayings, and her subsequent reformation as a Born-Again Christian, divided a nation when it came to her fate. This is what happens when rehabilitation isn’t an option.
This is the case of Karla Tucker
In September 2018, a white police officer fatally shot a black man in Dallas, Texas. Allegations of institutional racism and police violence in the US had been rife for decades, but the circumstances of this case made it all the more shocking.

It’s believed 1% of the population is a psychopath. The vast majority of these individuals will not be violent during their lifetime. A minority, however, will use their anti-social personality disorder to fulfil horrific warped fantasies – fantasies often formed in childhood and played out in their minds 1000s of times. This is the story of one such individual. This is the disturbing case of Kevin Davis.
A recent study by the Femicide Census found that a woman is killed by a man every three days in the UK. In June 2022, a violent predator was prowling the streets of Ilford, East London, looking for a victim.

This is what happens when a night out with friends ends in a chance encounter with evil. This is the murder of Zara Aleena.
Some murders are so horrific they live long in the memory. In 1995, Knoxville Tennessee, such a killing occurred. Victim and perpetrators were just teenagers, and the sadistic brutality of the crime caused a media sensation. It would only be after trial that the truth of the ringleader’s dysfunctional past would be revealed, dividing opinion across a nation. Should she pay the ultimate price in the electric chair, or should the courts show her clemency? This is what happens when nature and nurture create a cold-blooded killer. This is the case of Christa Pike.
In August 1993, a mother kissed her 4-year-old son goodbye as he set off to make the short journey to a park in the tiny, close-knit village of Savona, New York. 5 minutes later, he was deceased.
