In this true crime episode we look back in time, to an age where children could go ’out to
play’ especially in villages and towns where they were well known to
everyone. That was sadly about to end.
Susan Maxwell, an 11 year old coming back from her game of tennis
in the sleepy Scottish border town of Coldstream in broad daylight.
Vanishes in minutes, never to be seen alive again.
A parents greatest fear, and biggest nightmare. A snatcher, intent on
abducting, sexually assaulting and murdering young innocent girls.
Join us behind the scenes of this true crime, where detective squads hunt for clues,
and set up an administration system soon to prove hopelessly
inadequate when chasing a serial killer who seemingly travels the UK,
and can vanish into thin air.
Join the Serious Crime Squad investigation team as they put in the
long, long hours and miles. Meet the team in the incident room for a
unique glimpse behind the major crime curtain, where clues are
searched for tirelessly, and every detail is scrutinised.
What makes a police statement? Why are English police statements
more thorough. What was the carousel of an enquiry? How can three
police forces act in unison?
Join us on the heart breaking true crime journey to Staffordshire, where the
lifeless body of Susan is found dumped by the roadway 10 days later.
Abducted, snatched and transported 300 miles from her home and
family.
Learn about the increasing error factor’ and how the Shadow of the
Yorkshire Ripper enquiry hangs over every decision made by senior
officers across the country.
This is the start of our own true crime investigation into how the police were
required to adapt, to become innovative and to adopt new methods
in order to catch the very worst human specimens who live, work
and walk among us. The child serial killers.
This is real true crime from the inside.
