What did ye think of the Tine Watson episode? It was a very strange episode I thought. Yer man seemed normal until they got into a relationship then went crazy controlling. The photo of the dive is really eerie too.

Tina Watson really stuck with me, I swayed between the episode from guilty to innocent a few times. Gen why did it but it was no where near Casefile. Excellently done.

The Moors Murders Trilogy is tough to listen to, especially part one. I did find it quite enlightening though. I'd always had the impression that Hindley was the mastermind and Brady was the bumbling accomplice when it was much more 50/50.

Just finished these myself. I appreciate that he doesn't go into graphic detail (I also think it's more respectful of the victims and doesn't sensationalise it) but it was still hard to listen to.

Same as yourself, I thought it was nearly all Hindley, but that wasn't the case at all. I think that impression is because she kept herself in the media deliberately, plus the media really go to town when they get to cover women who kill people. I can't get over the number of supporters she had trying to get her out on parole :eek:

Came home to an empty house listening to Part 2 of the East Area Rapist, walk in to the kitchen and this catches the corner of my eye. Fright of my god damned life.

Just a heads up for people. A request has been made for a "True Crime Forum" to be started on boards where discussion of cases will take place. This forum will have nothing to do with podcasts per se but obviously cases that are featured on podcasts can be discussed.

If you would like to see this forum created then please head to the link below and inidciate your interest by posting a +1 in the thread.

I was never so grateful that he didn't go into detail in a case. Just knowing how long he had them for was awful enough

I read the wikipedia page on it a few years ago and honestly, I wasn't right for a few days afterwards. What a horrific event. I thought the podcast was really good. Explained a lot more about the murderer's background and the run up to events. Tough, though.

The new episode is a cracking one :pac:

Just finished all the EAR/ONS episodes. Took me about a week to get through them all.

In Part 5 (before the arrest) they mentioned that because of the statue of limitations on sexual assault in California, they won't be able to charge anyone with the rapes. Does anyone know, is that still the case if he confesses?

(PS, I think it's ridiculous that such a limit exists).

Yes!

It's been changed now but still applies to cases back then.

Also, we're currently petitioning for a true crime forum to be setup to discuss that case and other similar cases in more detail.

Please support if this is something you would be interested in.

Netflix are releasing a documentary called Evil Genius on May 11 about the Brian Wells case which was covered in Casefile episode 81. That was the one about the pizza delivery guy with a bomb strapped to him.

I don't know anything about how Netflix works so I can't tell if is available in Ireland.

That was such a strange case, I will definitely have a look. Problem is, Casefile is so detailed already that I'm not sure what else they could add to it.

Just incase it was missed during the arrest of the EARONS, there was 3 people arrested 2 weeks ago for the murders of the missing Welsh girls Laurie bible and Ashley freeman and their parents in 1999. Episode 3.

Unfortunately 2 of the men are now deceased.

That was a very interesting case and as it was only a short episode it is well worth another listen. It was episode 3 and was only 35 minutes long.

A really weird case. Excellently presented as always though. Casefile is really on a roll at the moment!

So frustrating hearing over and over that there had been sightings of prowlers, hang-up calls, etc. in areas and no one reported them to police. But at the same time, police didn't make public that these were part of his MO so people didn't know to be on alert. :mad:

I thought that too. The police didn't announce a serial rapist on the loose was very strange to me along with the fact that so many people seem to have seen strange things in the neighborhood but didn't report it to the cops. That part about the guy who stood up at the residences meeting stating how he's never let his wife be attacked was extraordinary.

It is pretty amazing that a man who seemingly committed 12 murders and over 50 rapes managed to go uncaptured for so long.

It was a different time too don’t forget. People left doors open, no 24 hour news, social media
