May 5th: Paula Hounslea's Body Found (2012)

Sometimes it seems like police know who the killer is but don’t have enough evidence to bring forth charges. At least, not enough to ensure a conviction. On May 5th 2012 a woman disappeared and, though it seems like police have a good idea of who might be responsible, the only people arrested had to be let go without any charges.

Show notes

May 3rd: Suzy Lamplugh Born (1961)

Sometimes there is a clear answer to a case but, for one reason or another, the evidence isn’t enough to land a conviction. On May 3rd 1961 a young woman was born who would, at the age of 25, suddenly disappear while in the company of a mystery man. A man who, police are certain, they have identified but have never been able to convict for her abduction and murder.
