S9 Ep3: Neighbour From Hell
6d ago
S9 Ep3: Neighbour From Hell
"Everybody needs good neighbours" noted the theme tune of a popular 1980's Australian soap opera, and indeed, the majority of us do go on to have those good neighbours, that do become good friends - again, as the theme tune of the soap claimed. But not always. For one family living in Nottingham back in November 2022, there was to be nothing of the sort next door, except a nightmare - and a killer. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving  children, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

Concluding the opening tale of Series 9, with the account of "The Fox" - how back in 1984 one man brought a wave of terror with his horrific crimes, not just to his hunting grounds in the South of England - but to the country as a whole.

I'll tell you in one of the most fascinating tales I have ever covered on the show.  The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving  descriptions of a sexual nature, and descriptions of animal mistreatment, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

The majority of people, whilst it may hurt at the time, do accept it is over, and eventually move on, learning from it.

Christmas is traditionally a time of joy, that time of year where you catch up with friends and loved ones, enjoy the festivities, swap gifts and watch children bask in the excitement of it all. For most, it's a happy time of year, but for some, it can be the darkest. For one tragic family in County Kilkenny, in Ireland, Christmas time indeed is their darkest of times - this one being the 15th in a row for them. This time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, I shall tell you exactly why.

S8 Ep28: Monster On Match
Online dating is more massively popular than ever today, and the list of sites that you can join up in an attempt to find that special person who may be lacking from your life seems to constantly grow - Plenty Of Fish, Tinder, Grindr, Bumble to name just a few, and of course, Match.Com The drawback with these sites is, is that you never know who you could meet on there. And sometimes, as you'll hear with this account - you may find out too late that you have matched with the wrong person. The very wrong person. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving  descriptions of a sexual nature, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

S8 Ep27: The Mudding Of The Somerset Gimp
Many areas around the UK have their own tales of a costumed resident - some are just harmless eccentrics, whilst others do it to send some goodwill out or to raise money for good causes. And then some, as the odd title of the episode will come to explain, and how the North Somerset area came to know from 2018 onwards, have a stranger reason - for the simple reason of instilling fear. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

A tale of savagery from the late 1990's, and the UK county of Hampshire comes this time around, as we hear of the horrors committed by an individual that simply, selfishly and deludedly, could not take rejection.

S8 Ep23: A Tale Of Two Sisters
Anybody can make the wrong choices in life, the same as anybody can at some point in theirs find themselves on a path that they couldn't have envisaged, through no control of their own.

S8 Ep22: The 40 Year Secret - Part 2
Concluding the tale begun last time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, which dealt with the horrific rape and murder of a young girl on a winter's night back in the North Wales town of Flint, in January 1976. It was a fast moving investigation back at the time, which quickly led to an arrest, charges, and ultimately, imprisonment.  And that was it - or so it was thought. But four decades later, the case was heard once again before a court - because, had police caught the right killer at the time? Or, had the real killer long been roaming free?

Concluding the tale of tragic Marie Stewart, a devoted mum of two, and hard-working teaching assistant, whose biggest mistake in life was to try and share the world of an individual whose ego only allowed room for thoughts about one person in it - himself. Andrew Lindo. He pursued multiple affairs with other women, sometimes overlapping ones, all to satisfy his own selfish needs, and one evening in December 2010, when Marie threatened to bring his house of cards crashing down, committed the ultimate horrific act to ensure that she couldnt, before embarking on a remarkable, devious, course of deception to conceal his crime. As you will hear in this concluding part.
