    290: Episode 290 - Jack Parsons: The Occultist Sex-Crazed Father of Modern Rocketry Mar 23, 2023
    From Copernicus to Newton, the greatest minds in history have had a crater named after them on the moon. But one name you may not know is Jack Parsons, a pioneer of rocket science whose contributions were so monumental that man wouldn’t have set foot on the moon without him.
    However, his sex-crazed occultism and bromance with L. Ron Hubbard made it hard for the scientific community to embrace him, leading to his eponymous crater being placed on the dark side of the moon.
    This story has everything from revolutionary science to orgies, the occult, and demonic rituals - what are you waiting for…

    ShortHand: Alice in Wonderland Syndrome Mar 21, 2023
    Ever feel like the world is closing in on you? Do all people appear to you with, say, heavy eyebrows, distorted features – or dragon faces? Have you developed a total breakdown in how you interpret the world, leading to a feeling of disconnection with your own body?
    Well, you may have Alice in Wonderland syndrome, a rare affliction that distorts the perception of shape, size, and even time itself. Hannah & Suruthi debut a new radio show – Tuesday Morning Delight – and go down the rabbit hole of one of the most bizarre disorders in human psychology.
    Plus: electro-shock therapy, what’s in a migraine, and Lewis Carroll’s paedo diaries.

    289: Episode 289 - David vs Robin: The Bain Family Killings - Part 2 Mar 16, 2023
    Last week we left off with the absolutely batshit-craziness of Margaret’s “Bel”-filled diaries and the rumoured accusations of incest made by Laniet Bain against her father Robin.
    And we’ll come back to all of that later in this episode, part 2 of our series on the Bain family murders, but not before we re-join David, as he’s being interviewed for the first time by the police, just hours after the killings…

    ShortHand: Papua New Guinea’s Black Magic Murders Mar 14, 2023
    Black magic, or ‘Sanguma’, is often used to explain everything from minor illnesses to sudden deaths in Papua New Guinea.
    Horrifyingly, it’s also behind the recent rise of brutal witch hunts sweeping the nation. An epidemic of violence in which, predominantly, women and girls are being publicly tortured and murdered.
    Why? Find out on this week’s ShortHand.

    288: Episode 288 - Black Magic, Incest & Murder: The Bain Family Killings - Part 1 Mar 09, 2023
    On 29 June 1994 the entire Bain family, except for eldest son David, were found murdered in their house in Dunedin.
    The investigation that followed would go on to become New Zealand’s most controversial, as allegations of black magic, incest and police corruption exploded…

    ShortHand: Genetic Sexual Attraction Mar 07, 2023
    The concept of finding a close relative sexually attractive is, for most of us, totally stomach churning. Yet, according to some estimates, around 50% of reunited family members develop feelings that are obsessive and sexual.
    The phenomenon of Genetic Sexual Attraction can have disastrous effects on families and relationships. This week, we look at its biological and psychological causes, rooted in the deepest and most primal parts of our consciousness.

    287: Episode 287 – The Murdaugh Family Murders Mar 02, 2023
    The Murdaugh murders are not one story; they are a seemingly endless web of lies, entitlement, and confusion.
    At the centre of the web are the bodies of Paul and Maggie Murdaugh, found at their hunting lodge. But tangled in it are the tragic deaths of three other completely innocent people, dragged in by the most powerful family in South Carolina.
    This week Hannah and Suruthi make sense of one of the most sprawling true crime cases out there…

    ShortHand: Nostradamus Feb 28, 2023
    Michel de Nostredame, known to most as Nostradamus, is a man, myth, and legend – but was he able to predict the future? Probably not.
    Yet many point to his book ‘Les Prophéties’ as historical proof that he could see through time itself. Why? Well you’ll have to listen to this episode of ShortHand to find out!

    286: Episode 286 - Emanuela Orlandi: The Vatican’s Only Missing Citizen Feb 23, 2023
    Organised crime, sex scandals, terror plots, hundreds of millions of missing dollars, a gangster known as ‘God’s Banker’ found hanging from a bridge in London, a 100-year-old apocalyptic prophecy, an anonymous tip-off that sounds like it comes from Dan Brown’s never-released Godfather sequel, and messages hidden in crypts…this is the story of Emanuela Orlandi, the only missing citizen of the smallest country in the world.
    And though she disappeared more than 40 years ago, Emanuela’s story remains, to this day, one of the biggest mysteries in Italian criminal history.

    ShortHand: ROAR - "If Disney Made a Snuff Film" Feb 21, 2023
    This week, H&S take a look at an 80s cult film that has truly earned its stripes as “the most dangerous movie ever made”.
    ‘Roar’ was filmed using 150 untrained and untamed big cats. And although no animals were intentionally harmed during the making of the movie, the same most definitely cannot be said about the cast and crew.

    285: Episode 285 - The Murder of Rachel Nickell Feb 16, 2023
    Rachel Nickell’s brutalised body was found on Wimbledon Common with her two-year-old son Alex wiping her bloodied face and begging her to 'wake up'. The nature of the broad daylight attack and the horrific injuries put enormous pressure on the Met to get the case solved and fast. However, none of that justifies the shoddy police work, cut corners, and tunnel vision that allowed a serial rapist to go unchecked for years.

    ShortHand: Saint Valentine Feb 14, 2023
    When you hear the words “Valentine’s Day”, what springs to mind? Romantic candlelit dinners? Secret admirers? Or violent Christian martyrdom? Well, go back far enough and it’s the latter that people were really celebrating on the 14th of February.
    H&S go back to the pagan-bashing Christian roots of the festival, and find out the beheadings, miracles and secret marriages behind the real(ish) Saint Valentine. Plus: why the Loch Ness Monster is definitely in hell.

    284: Episode 284 - Dorothea Puente: The Boarding House of Death Feb 09, 2023
    Dorothea Puente may have looked every bit the placid old lady she played. In reality, she was in her early fifties, and was using her self-made status as a ‘pillar of the community’ to divert attention away from what was buried and rotting in her garden.
    Whether her victims had a few hundred thousand dollars, a nice pick-up truck, or even just a meagre social security cheque – they all risked the wrath of the ‘Death House Landlady’.

    ShortHand: Flakka - “$5 Insanity” Feb 07, 2023
    What makes flakka – aka gravel, aka the zombie drug, aka five-dollar insanity – one of the most frightening drugs on the market is not just its unpredictable strength. It’s not just its effects – which have caused its users to go on unhinged, rabid rampages that end in bloody violence and brutal murder.
    What makes the synthetic cathinone particularly horrifying is just how easy it is to make, distribute, and profit from. And how continuously drugs like it evade the law. This week, H&S find out why the drug exists – and why it drives people to such horrifying attacks.

    283: Episode 283 - Rasputin: Russia’s Greatest Love Machine Feb 02, 2023
    The much-told legend of Rasputin – the giant, wild-eyed, well-hung, wandering Siberian monk who seduced the Tsarina herself – is mostly a bunch of absolute borscht. But the real story is just as wild.
    H&S look at the life of a peasant who infiltrated Russian nobility, embodying the tensions of a nation – a charismatic zealot who mysteriously healed the Romanovs’ sickly heir.
    So join us to find out how Russia went from Romanovs to Revolution; the possible MI6 ties to Rasputin’s death; and a classic, quick-fire RedHanded rundown of…the entire First World War.

    ShortHand: Canada’s Residential School System Jan 31, 2023
    Between 1828 and 1997, over 150,000 indigenous Canadian children were forcibly taken from their families, and placed in church-run ‘residential schools’. Their heads were shaved, they were forbidden from speaking their native languages, and their cultures were forcibly and violently suppressed.
    This is the story of one of the darkest chapters in Canada’s colonial history, and the cultural genocide of the country’s indigenous peoples.

    282: Episode 282 - Jeffrey Epstein: Foul Play - Part 2 Jan 26, 2023
    In 2009, having served just 13 months of the cushiest jail sentence this side of Scandinavia, Jeffrey Epstein was free – and legally protected from any future punishment. But there were hundreds of people that knew what he really was: a dangerous, influential and insatiable child rapist with a sophisticated network of fixers. They knew he had to be stopped.
    In this second episode of our two-parter, H&S look at the tireless legal and journalistic efforts to bring him down; go deeper into the involvement of Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew; and find out what kind of justice – if any – was served. Plus: what happened in that jail cell in 2019?

    ShortHand: Medieval Torture Jan 24, 2023
    Medieval torture, the very words probably fill you with equal parts fear and curiosity…and that’s because no period of human history were the methods employed more devious, imaginative, and downright excruciating than in Medieval times.
    Join H&S as they take you through five of the most brutal ways countless poor souls met their end in Medieval Europe.

    281: Episode 281 - Jeffrey Epstein: Along Came a Spider - Part 1 Jan 19, 2023
    The story of Jeffrey Epstein – the billionaire financier with an industrial-scale web of child abuse implicating some of the most powerful people in the world – sounds like some half-baked conspiracy theory. But it’s all true. And to answer the question of how he went from humble origins to sex-trafficking minors over to his private island, we have to start at the very beginning.
    So, who exactly was Jeffrey Epstein? How did socialite and media heiress Ghislaine Maxwell accelerate his ambitions? And how the hell did they keep getting away with it?

    ShortHand: Visions of Murder – Crime & Clairvoyants Jan 17, 2023
    With over 200,000 unsolved cases of murder and missing persons in the US alone, even the most advanced forensic technology and top criminal investigators can't crack them all. But fear not – for there are some who believe that the key to solving these cold cases lies in the world of the paranormal. That's right, we're talking about psychic detectives.
    This week on ShortHand, we're delving into the effectiveness of supernatural sleuths. So, grab your crystal balls and light some candles, because this is one investigation you won't want to miss.

    280: Episode 280 - The Idaho Student Murders Jan 12, 2023
    On 13 November 2022, four University of Idaho students were found stabbed to death in their beds. Six weeks later, the police (under the glare of immense public scrutiny) arrested a PhD student, Bryan Christopher Kohberger, 2,500 miles away in Pennsylvania.
    Last week, the probable cause affidavit was released, revealing jaw-dropping evidence against the 28 year old.
    In this episode Suruthi and Hannah work their way through the timeline of events, how the investigation unfolded and what we know so far about Kohberger…

    ShortHand: Saddam Hussein’s Blood Quran Jan 10, 2023
    In a vault, underneath a mosque in Baghdad, is a book whose very existence is considered morally and spiritually unforgivable. Three keys are required to open the vault: one owned by a spiritual leader, one by the chief of police, and one by an unnamed, anonymous citizen.
    In 1997, Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein ordered for a 605-page, 6,000-verse Quran to be written entirely in his blood. Since both its creation and destruction are strictly forbidden in Islamic law – it poses the ultimate dilemma for Iraqi authorities. H&S find out the origins of a cursed artefact.

    Bonus Patreon Upcycle - Joe Metheny: Hate, Heroin & Human Hog Roasts Jan 05, 2023
    There aren't many true crime figures bigger than Joe Metheny. The 450-pound killer cook, who rampaged his way through south Baltimore's homeless community in the early 90s, claimed to have taken the lives of at least 10 victims...
    But how does someone go from a quiet, high-achieving young boy to a homeless crack addict with a taste for murder?

    ShortHand: The Death of Princess Diana Jan 03, 2023
    As one of the most influential, beloved, and reported figures in recent history, the death of the Princess of Wales caused an international state of mourning. But as the dust settled, a narrative started to develop; one in which Diana’s death was no accident, but instead a cold-blooded murder ordered by the crown.
    So what really caused the death of Diana Spencer? Find out in this week’s episode of ShortHand.

    Bonus Patreon Upcycle - Lobotomies: Piece of Mind Dec 29, 2022
    Modern medicine’s come a long way since the days of old where doctors would drill a hole in your head for a cold, prescribe you a tobacco-smoke enema, suggest you brush your teeth with urine, or give you heroin as cough medicine.
    But things really did get a whole hell of a lot worse before they got better…
    Lobotomies were performed on tens of thousands of psychiatric patients, misbehaving children, “hysterical” women, JFK’s sister, and the former First Lady of Argentina – all just in the last 80 years.

    277: Episode 277 - Joyce McKinney: Mormon Sex in Chains Dec 08, 2022
    Kirk Anderson was abducted from an LDS meeting house in Surrey by his ex-partner – and ex-beauty queen – Joyce McKinney.
    He said he was taken to a small rural cottage, tied to a bed, and sexually assaulted for three days. According to McKinney, everything was above board – Kirk just liked things kinky.
    But the British tabloids only cared about one thing: the wisecracking Southern belle Joyce McKinney made for great headlines. All the papers needed was a picture of her naked, to sell the story of the century. And they'd do anything to get it.

    ShortHand: The Warrior Gene Dec 06, 2022
    For centuries, a question has fascinated scientists: can you identify a murderer based on their physical or neurological characteristics? And, if so – what could you do about it?

    276: Episode 276 - Alison Botha: Left for Dead Dec 01, 2022
    Kidnapped, attacked and left disembowelled in the desert by two men who claimed to have been possessed by demons, Alison Botha suffered one of the most torturous ordeals we’ve ever covered.
    The men responsible met through a shared love of cheap drinks, sexual assault and the occult, but nothing can explain the brutality of their crimes. Welcome to a case we’ve been avoiding for years… and for good reason.

    ShortHand: Josef Mengele - The Angel of Death Nov 29, 2022
    The Holocaust is possibly the most infamous genocide in history – and through it all, one man, in particular, stood out for his brutality. His sadistic actions, and depraved “medical experiments” during the Holocaust earned him the name “Angel of Death”, and cemented his legacy as one of the most evil men of the 20th century. This is the story of Josef Mengele.

    275: Episode 275 - The Assassination of Olof Palme Nov 24, 2022
    In February 1986, the prime minister of Sweden was walking home from the cinema, when a man stepped out of a shop doorway and shot him in the neck with a .357 Magnum. The killer ran down a side street – and disappeared without a trace.
    The mystery surrounding Olof Palme’s death is a Swedish national obsession that's barely left the headlines in the decades since. Hundreds of theories, from international hitmen to lone gunmen and police conspiracies, have swirled around one of the most extensive murder investigations in history.
    And then, in 2020, investigators called a press conference – to announce that they had finally found the killer…

    ShortHand: Did Gonorrhoea Give Us Grandparents? Nov 22, 2022
    There are plenty of things that separate us from the animal kingdom. But one of the weirdest and most inexplicable is that we can grow so bloody old – way past reproductive age.
    And one theory is that we owe our longevity to none other than the sexually transmitted infection, gonorrhoea. How? Well, you’ll have to listen to find out…

    In 1995, the billionaire founder of DHL disappeared off of the face of the planet and left behind a closet full of skeletons.

He also started The Jared Foundation, an international paedophile ring, masquerading as a charity fighting childhood obesity.

    On 14 February 2017, the bodies of 13-year-old Abby Williams and 14-year-old Libby German were found in the woods in Delphi, Indiana.

    ShortHand: The European Witch Craze – Part 1 Nov 01, 2022
    For over a thousand years, witches were believed to be local soothsayers who used their powers for everyday charms and spells. But in the 16th and 17th centuries, Europe was suddenly gripped by a new idea: that witches were part of an organised demonic network, plotting with the devil himself to cloud the whole world in evil.
    And to stop the armies of darkness, more than 200,000 people were executed across Europe for the crime of witchcraft.
    In the first half of our two-parter on Europe's witch hunters, H&S look at how it grew into a state-sanctioned frenzy, why it lasted for over 200 years, and some of the more gruesome torture methods they used to extract confessions...

    ShortHand: Why Did Anyone Believe in Elizabeth Holmes? Oct 18, 2022
    Elizabeth Holmes and her startup, Theranos, are now infamous. With millions of lives put at risk, and hundreds of millions of dollars flushed down the toilet, they serve as the ultimate cautionary tale of “fake it till you make it” gone wrong.
    But with her sentence approaching, we ask why anyone trusted Elizabeth Holmes in the first place – first with their money, and then with American lives…

    269: Episode 269 - Devil’s Dorp Oct 13, 2022
    This is the story of a godly rivalry that spun out of control – taking in vampires, werewolves and the murders of eleven people. And behind it all, a 48th-generational satanic witch with 1,000 multiple personalities and a score to settle.
    Krugersdorp, a town northwest of Johannesburg, has always had high levels of violent crime. But when South Africa’s own satanic panic kicked into full force in the early 90s, its citizens had an altogether more unholy threat on their hands...

    ShortHand: Japan’s Suicide Forest Oct 11, 2022
    Few places live up to their reputation like Aokigahara, known in the West as Japan’s ‘Suicide Forest’.
    Dense woodland, purported magnetic interference and tales of ghostly Yurei make navigating the forest difficult – but finding a secluded place to contemplate your existence is all too easy. Every year, dozens of people travel to Aokigahara to take their lives. But why? This week, we discuss the dark Japanese folklore and sinister realities behind one of the world's most tragically disturbing places…

    268: Episode 268 - Blake Leibel: A Blueprint for Evil Oct 06, 2022
    This case takes the notion of life imitating art to a newly macabre extreme. In 2010, Blake Leibel released his graphic novel, Syndrome. Described as The Truman Show meets Se7en, the story follows a rogue neuropathologist as he attempts to find a cure for evil, using a condemned serial killer as his guinea pig.
    Initially met with a lukewarm response, the novel garnered international attention in 2015 after Leibel seemed to use its most violent scenes to commit what's been described as "the most brutal murder in LA's history".

    ShortHand: 2 Guys 1 Horse – Mr Hands Oct 04, 2022

    In this week’s Shorthand, we’ll be exploring the disturbing story behind one of the internet’s most infamous viral videos, The Enumclaw Horse Sex Case, and finding out the history, psychology, and morality (or lack thereof) of bestiality.

    267: Episode 267 – The Unbelievable Saga of Thomas Quick Sep 29, 2022
    In the early 1990s, a patient at Säter mental institution was undergoing the facility’s revolutionary memory-recovery therapy, when he revealed a shocking incident from his past. Back in 1980, he had killed an 11-year-old boy.
    As the therapy continued, more and more brutal confessions came, until he was linked to 39 of Sweden’s most infamous murders. He became known as the nation’s answer to Hannibal Lecter – a sadistic, cannibalistic serial-killer paedophile.
    So strap in for shocking confessions, experimental psychotherapy, and a revelation that shook the Swedish justice system to its core…

    In a small town in the Dominican Republic, more than one percent of boys are born as ‘Güevedoces’. The name, which translates to ‘penis at twelve’, refers to children who are assigned female at birth, but develop male genitalia only at the onset of puberty.

    266: Episode 266 - The Burari Deaths: Ritual Slaughter Sep 22, 2022
    In the early morning of 1 July 2018, Gurcharan Singh went to check on his neighbours in the Burari district of Delhi. When he got there, he found a crime scene so chilling that the whole city was thrown into a frenzy.
    Ten members of the Chundawat family were hanging from the ceiling. Another, the 80-year-old grandmother, was found strangled in the next room. And the police, the public, and the national media were stumped – it seemed too complex for suicide; too organised for murder. And then, they discovered a diary that changed everything…
    In the first case in five years of RedHanded to cause Suruthi to sleep with the lights on, we delve into the murky, ritualistic details of the Burari deaths.

    ShortHand: Jeremy Kyle - Death on Daytime Sep 20, 2022

    And we all watched it. The Jeremy Kyle Show enjoyed 1 million viewers every day. On this week's ShortHand learn how the show and its studio were explicitly designed to bring out the very worst in extremely vulnerable people.
    We will never know how many lost their lives as a result of this daytime nightmare.

    And a string of shocking discoveries, including hard drives full of hentai, a collection of tampons and a suspicious car accident, only helped their case. What they didn’t know was that before it was all over, in a shocking final act, another four people would end up dead.

    ShortHand: HIV’s “Patient Zero” Sep 13, 2022
    Starting in June 1981, the AIDS epidemic ravaged communities all over the world. Since then, the retrovirus has taken 36.3 million lives, and there are reported to have been as many as 100 million confirmed cases the world over.
    Its spread through North America primarily affected the 4 Hs: homosexuals, hemophiliacs, heroin users, and Haitian immigrants. And it was reported in the international press to have all come from one man…
    This is the story of how that poisonous narrative – wrongly blaming one Air Canada flight attendant for a deadly epidemic – became a part of the zeitgeist.

    263: Episode 263 - Larry Nassar: Mental Gymnastics Sep 01, 2022
    In the gruelling world of elite gymnastics, Larry Nassar was seen by a lot of young athletes as a friendly face in tough times. As the USA Gymnastics National Medical Coordinator, he performed treatments on children as young as ten, for almost 30 years.
    And under cover of those treatments, he was routinely molesting hundreds of young girls for decades – sometimes multiple times a day, often with their parents sitting just metres away.
    After multiple investigations, he seemed untouchable. But thanks to the bravery of his survivors – and the discovery of three external hard drives – the world saw him for what he really was: a calculated predator, with more victims than Bill Cosby, Jerry Sandusky and Harvey Weinstein combined. Hannah and Suruthi chart the biggest sexual abuse scandal in sports history.

    Little did he know, that this party would turn into a six-day long stand-off with police and be the birth of the now well-known term Stockholm Syndrome.
    But did you know that despite being cited in numerous media reports of hostage situations and abuse cases, Stockholm Syndrome has never been included in the DSM? Therefore it’s not recognised as an official psychological condition…

    ShortHand: The Unabomber vs Forensic Linguistics Aug 23, 2022
    Ted Kaczynski’s 18-year campaign of domestic terrorism was the most expensive FBI investigation in its history. Bombs went off seemingly at random, across the US and sometimes years apart. After almost two decades, investigators were still at a loss. But when the Unabomber sent his 35,000-word manifesto to national newspapers, the FBI turned to one of the most unlikely branches of criminal investigation out there: forensic linguistics.
    This is the story of how word choice, syntax and even the subtleties of a person’s accent have been used through the years to bring killers to justice.

    In October of 2019, prison officers at HMP Full Sutton in West Yorkshire discovered the body of a prisoner who'd been subjected to 89 minutes of torture before being strangled to death by another inmate.
    The victim was 33-year-old Richard Huckle.
    Dubbed by the media as "The Gap Year Paedophile", Huckle was serving a life sentence for carrying out a 9-year-long, systematic campaign of abuse against some of the world's poorest children.
    Huckle documented his atrocities on the dark web, authored a how-to-guide for paedophiles, and contributed to one of the largest nonce-networks ever discovered.
    This is the story of Richard Huckle and the incredible officers who brought him down.

    ShortHand: Should We Be Worried About Monkeypox? Aug 16, 2022
    Symptoms like shivering, 'skin eruptions', and anal bleeding are always going to ring alarm bells. But with the first human cases of Monkeypox popping up in the 1970s, why is it hitting headlines now?
    Why has the WHO declared it 'a public health emergency of international concern'?
    And more importantly, should we be sharing towels?

    258: Episode 258 - Alex Skeel: Two Years of Torture Aug 11, 2022
    Described by the first officer to arrive as “the worst domestic scene” they’d ever witnessed, the brutality of what Alex Skeel endured was shocking. Alex had deep gashes on his arms, burns upon burns, and according to his family, he smelt like he was dead. But his years of isolation and abuse weren’t the work of a kidnapper – they came from the woman he loved.

    ShortHand: Should We Support Paedophile Catchers? Aug 09, 2022
    To some paedophile catchers like Chris Hansen are online superheroes, protecting children and putting predators behind bars. To others they're vigilantes who enforce their own form of justice while putting people in danger. But do they have a place in the system? This week Hannah and Suruthi are jumping into the murky waters of self styled sting operations, hidden cameras, and entrapment to find out.

    Shorthand: Why North Sentinel Island is Forbidden Aug 02, 2022
    There is an island in the Bay of Bengal populated by indigenous hunter-gatherers, who live much like our ancestors did some 60,000 years ago. They’ve made it clear they want no contact with the outside world, and in the 50s, India made it illegal for anyone to go within five miles of its shoreline.
    But a few years ago one man, who thought he was above that rule, snuck onto the island proclaiming to the local tribe that Jesus loved them. He has never been seen again.
    Hannah and Suruthi explain the background to John Chau’s evangelical mission – and discuss the few people who have successfully managed to connect with this isolated group.

    256: Episode 256 – Norwegian Black Metal: Pure F**king Armageddon Jul 28, 2022
    The Norwegian black metal scene of the early 90s started with pigs’ heads impaled on spikes, buried clothes wrapped around dead birds, and other notorious onstage antics. In three years, it spiralled into dozens of ancient churches going up in flames, violent bigotry – and the gruesome deaths of three people.
    In this week’s episode, the girls chart the bloody origins of one band, Mayhem, and how they fostered the most feared music scene in history…

    255: Episode 255 - Who Killed the Harrisons? Jul 21, 2022
    In 2013, paramedics were called to a home in Mississauga, Ontario.
    There they found the body of 40-year-old Caleb Harrison lying in bed, with red marks around his neck.
    But this wasn’t the first time that the paramedics had found a dead body at the Harrison family home.
    In fact, in the space of just five years, three members of the Harrison family had died in separate and bizarre incidents in the same house…
    Was the house haunted by a murderous ghost, or was the family being preyed upon by a calculated and patient killer?

    Why would the would-be robbers shoot Hann and Bich Pan in cold blood, but leave their 24-year-old daughter Jennifer relatively unharmed? Why didn’t they drive off in the expensive Lexus that was parked in the drive?
    And why would Hann Pan run from the house, leaving his daughter tied to a bannister?

    ShortHand: Why Madeleine McCann? Jul 12, 2022
    When Kate and Gerry McCann put their three-year-old to bed on a family holiday in Portugal, they could never have imagined how the next 15 years of their lives would unfold. The horror of their daughter’s sudden disappearance was followed by the most infamous missing-child case in history. In that time, millions have been raised, and Maddie’s name has barely left headlines.
    But when more than 600 people disappear without a trace around the world every day, what was it about this story that has kept Maddie’s name in the public eye? On the first episode of our brand new show, we ask: why Madeleine McCann?

    253: Episode 253 - Victoria Cilliers: Terminal Velocity Jul 07, 2022
    Speeding towards the ground at over 60 miles per hour, former soldier and parachute instructor Victoria Cilliers was about to make history. She would be the first person in over a decade to experience a double parachute failure.
    Miraculously, she survived the impact. But when Victoria’s equipment was examined, it became clear there was more to this “freak accident” than met the eye. There were gas leaks, gaslights and grounds to divorce.

    252: Episode 252 - The Murder of Sophie Lionnet: Boyzone, Babies & Broken Bones Jun 30, 2022
    Boyzone obsessions and black magic paedophile rings consumed the mind of Sabrina Koudier. And her neighbours turned a blind eye to the strange woman's violent outbursts and vile treatment of her au pair. It wasn't their place to get involved.
    But even the well-to-do residents of Southfields couldn't ignore a billowing plume of black smoke and the unmistakable smell of burning hair and flesh.

    251: Episode 251 - Andrei Chikatilo: Doomed from the Womb - Part 2 Jun 23, 2022
    With nothing but a vague suspect profile to go on, and with mutilated bodies piling up around the USSR, Soviet police were battling to bring the Rostov Ripper's reign of terror to an end.
    All the while Andre Chikatilo tore through his victims, constantly changing who he went after. The police were stumped. But with a dogged detective hot on his tail, Chikatilo made a costly mistake.
    In this second and final instalment of the story of Andrei Chikatilo, we take you through the events that led to his downfall.

    248: Episode 248 - R Kelly: The Pied Piper of R&B Jun 02, 2022
    In 2021, a 51-year-old man referred to as “Daddy” by the followers of his alleged sex cult, was found guilty of 8 counts of sex trafficking. Breaking any of Daddy’s rules would result in brutal punishment; including beatings, solitary confinement, and starvation.
    “Daddy” kept his victims – most of them teenagers – locked up in his mansion. And all the while, he was topping music charts across the world with his era-defining R&B hits…
    This is the story of the rise and fall of Robert Sylvester Kelly.

    247: Episode 247 – The 2017 Manchester Bombing May 26, 2022
    On 22 May 2017, as Ariana Grande hit the high notes of her final song to a sold-out Manchester Arena, Salman Abedi hit the button on a homemade bomb. The resulting explosion killed Abedi and 22 other innocent people, and left over 1,000 more injured.
    The country mourned, millions of pounds were raised, and we all promised not to let hate win.
    But as the dust settled, a worrying question started being asked: how did a known terrorist sympathiser who had fought alongside an ISIL militia slip through the UK’s counterterrorism net?

    245: Episode 245 - ‘The Satanic Verses’: Fatwas & Faux Pas May 12, 2022
    If the contents of a 546-page book can get one man murdered, two more seriously injured and its author forced into hiding for nine years, you can be confident of its subject: religion. But despite its reputation, ‘The Satanic Verses’ isn’t a page-by-page deconstruction of Islam. It’s a work of fiction; one that prompted the leader of Iran to call for a worldwide manhunt of anyone involved in its publication.
    So how did one man’s literary skill get another man literally killed?

    244: Episode 244 - The Van Breda Family Axe Murders May 05, 2022
    When police rushed to respond to a triple murder in one of South Africa’s most exclusive gated communities, it seemed as though Henri van Breda had had a lucky escape. They found him standing on his family lawn, dead-eyed and covered in blood and urine. According to the neighbours, he had been eerily waving to them while he waited for the police. All understandable, when three of your loved ones have been hacked to death by an axe-wielding maniac.
    But as police dug further into the burglary-turned-homicide, things just weren't adding up...

    The truth, however, was that there was no Japanese game show; the baby oil wasn't baby oil; and these two women had just unknowingly assassinated the estranged half-brother of North Korea's one and only, Supreme Leader, Kim Jong Un.

    In the space of 3 weeks in October 2002, Washington D.C was terrorised by a pair of spree killers carrying out a spate of deadly sniper-style attacks. They killed 10 people and injured 3 others.
    Their choice of victims was shockingly random; they crossed racial, gender, age and socioeconomic lines - ensuring that everyone was absolutely terrified. And when the pair were finally apprehended, authorities realised that they had been wrong about almost everything from motive to profile…

    What could drag a seemingly normal man, from being a fun-loving Christian surf instructor to killing his own children in fear of their "serpent DNA"?
    In part two of our deep-dive into the evolution of the Satanic Panic, we talk bout how anonymous messages left on 4chan became a global cult and started a chain of events that has led to real-world violence including the 2021 Capitol riots, and the deaths of two children.

Peter Smart, his wife, Doris, and their 10-year-old son Michael had all been shot dead at point-blank range in their beds.

    225: Episode 225 - Casey Anthony: Web of Lies - Part 1 Dec 09, 2021
    When 22-year-old Casey Anthony was arrested on 16 July 2008, her two-year-old daughter Caylee hadn't been seen for over a month. Casey's history of lying and manipulation, as well as her strangely distant attitude towards her missing child, was setting off all kinds of alarm bells... and the smell of death coming from the boot of her car didn't help either.
    Prepare for bizarre phone calls, fascinating police interviews, and generally some of the strangest behaviour we've ever witnessed, as we cover one of the most infamous true-crime cases of all time.

    224: Episode 224 - The Guildford Four & The Maguire Seven Dec 02, 2021
    On the 5th of October 1974, the Provisional Irish Republican Army blew up a military pub in Guildford, killing four soldiers, one civilian and injuring sixty-five others.
    The responsibility for the heinous act of terror was quickly thrown at three young Irish men and a seventeen-year-old English girl. On top of this, accusations of running a "bomb factory" was soon being shouldered by a middle-aged Irish woman who'd lived in England for twenty years.
    The British justice system had no evidence to prove the Guildford Four or Maguire Seven were connected to any bombings, but a large helping of police brutality and a bit of systemic corruption would soon sort that out.

    223: Episode 223 - Village of the Damned: The Nithari Child Murders Nov 25, 2021
    Every couple of weeks like clockwork, another child would vanish from Nithari, Delhi. The police didn't seem concerned, and no one wanted to take a closer look at the "black hole" – the alleyway from where all the kids had disappeared.
    What the locals would eventually find in the sewers surrounding bungalow D5 would expose a terrifying paedophile, necrophile and cannibal – in a case that would change India forever.

    221: Episode 221 - Koh Tao: Murder Island Nov 11, 2021
    In September 2015 the brutalised bodies of British backpackers Hannah Witheridge and David Miller were found on the tropical island paradise of Koh Tao. The island off the coast of mainland Thailand, has long been a hotspot for partygoers lured in by the cheap alcohol, stunning beaches, and of course its infamous full moon parties.
    With the whole world watching, two suspects for the brutal murders were quickly found, but with 20% of the country's income at stake and a background of political unrest, the investigation was far from faultless.

    Bonus - Georgia Williams: The Snuff Film Maker Down the Street Aug 27, 2021
    In this second instalment of our promise to deliver two bonus episodes after we won GOLD at the British Podcast Awards, we cover the heartbreaking case of Georgia Williams.
    Georgia was a high-achieving and kind teenager who was always willing to help those who asked, and her killer knew this. 23-year-old Jamie Reynolds had an obsession with violent pornography and snuff movies. In May 2013 he used Georgia's good nature against her and eventually guilted the 16-year-old into coming over to his parents' house to take part in a "fake murder" photoshoot, that soon turned out to be all too real.

    210: Episode 210 - Shamima Begum: ISIS & The Bethnal Green 3 - Part 2 Aug 26, 2021
    This week Suruthi and Hannah head into a place widely regarded as one of the most dangerous places in the Middle East right now - the notorious al-Hawl camp. It's where, in 2019, a British journalist found an 18-year-old, 9-month pregnant Shamima Begum. Soon after this discovery, Shamima Begum would have her British citizenship revoked, leaving her stateless in the desert hell-hole.
    In the concluding episode of this series, the girls discuss how ISIS used religion to justify sex slavery, the fall of the so-called caliphate and what should be done with individuals like Shamima Begum.

    Pedro Rodrigues Filho, aka Pedhrino Matador, Killer Petey or The Brazilian Dexter, is a bit of an anomaly as far as serial killers go. He brutally killed at least 71 people, including his own father, but still many people in Brazil revere and applaud him for his "work"...

    Bonus: The Columbine High School Massacre Aug 09, 2021
    Earlier this year we promised that if we won gold in the BPA Listeners' Choice category, we would deliver two bonus episodes chosen by the Spooky Bitches. This is the first of those episodes - The Columbine High School Massacre.
    The months leading up to the 20th of April 1999 - and the mindsets of both Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold - have been very well documented. And yet the story of The Columbine High School Massacre is still full of misreporting, misunderstanding, and miscommunication.
    In this episode of RedHanded, we aim to dispel some myths and get into the facts behind America's most infamous high-school shooting.

    206: Episode 206 - Fritz Haarmann: The Butcher of Hannover Jul 29, 2021

    In the early 1900s Germany was a nation ravaged by the horrors of war, debt and death. For years, as they struggled with stagflation and starvation, all manner of depravity began to emerge; there had even been rumours of human meat being sold on Germany’s black markets.

    And it was during this time, that a dangerous man roamed the streets committing a series of gruesome murders so diabolical that he terrified people who had survived the nightmares of WW1. This man, a deviant sexual sadist, went on to be known as The Butcher of Hanover...

    Anton LaVey, founder and head priest of the Church of Satan, led a controversial life; he was linked to the deaths of a famous Hollywood starlet and a Kennedy brother. Join Hannah and Suruthi for a deep dive into America's satanic panic, the origins of Satanism and how it has evolved over the decades. They explore LaVey's early life, from burlesque organ player, to occultist, to becoming considered by some to be "the most evil man in the world".

    In 1983, in an unassuming suburb of North London ,some plumbers were called out to fix an un-flushable toilet. This already unpleasant job was made much worse by the distinctly hand shaped bones mixed in with lumps of human flesh blocking the drains. This discovery would lead to the arrest of Britain's most notorious necrophile, Dennis Nilsen. The body Nilsen had chopped up, diligently flushed down the toilet and blocked the with was his last victim, but it was nowhere near his first...

Tragically, however, the family wouldn't live to see the new year because that night they were all brutally murdered in their own home. A plethora of evidence was left behind at the scene, including DNA, fingerprints, half-eaten food and even an entire outfit, but still to this day this case remains one of Japan's most notorious unsolved murders.

    202: Episode 202 - The Haunting Murder of Matthew Shepard Jun 24, 2021

    Content Warning - this episode contains quotes pertaining to homophobic and discriminatory language which some listeners may find upsetting.


    Listener discretion is advised.


    On the 7th of October 1998, 21-year old Matthew Shepard was found tied to a prairie fence at the end of a remote dirt track in Laramie, Wyoming. The young gay man had been pistol-whipped in the head over 20 times, and his brain stem had been crushed. He died 6 days later in hospital.

    This case went on to become arguably the most infamous gay hate crime in modern history, and for many Matthew became a martyr.

    In this episode, the girls examine what happened that night, the defendants’ muddled legal decisions, and the latest "bombshell evidence"…

    200: Episode 200 - Jimmy Savile: Predator in Plain Sight - Part 1 Jun 10, 2021
    For decades, TV presenter Jimmy Savile was idolised as a national treasure in Britain. But the power and adoration Savile enjoyed was matched only by his perversions and depravity...
    He was knighted, awarded an OBE, he rubbed shoulders with royalty, prime ministers and he ruled the roost at the BBC. Savile also raised millions for charity, for which he was rewarded with the literal keys to hospitals and children's homes across the country.
    In part 1 of this 2 part series, Hannah and Suruthi explore the truth behind Jimmy Savile's eccentric facade, delve into his secretive childhood and ask why no one stopped this monstrous predator.

    Bonus - Kate Webster: The Real Life Sweeney Todd Jun 07, 2021

    Thanks to ‘NOW’, and the new show ‘The Nevers’, we’re taking all you spooky bitches on a trip to Victorian London for an extra special bonus episode. And it’s a wild one...in fact, today’s episode resulted in one of the most sensational trials of the time - so big, that the future King of Sweden made the trip all the way to The Old Bailey just to watch!


    In January 1879 Mrs Julia Martha Thomas hired Kate Webster, a petty criminal, to be her live-in maid. A month later Mrs Thomas’s neighbours would complain of a foul stench coming from the woman’s home. Things only became weirder when Kate was seen wearing her boss’s clothes and allegedly selling jars of ‘Best Dripping’ to pub landlords…


    Was Kate Webster the real-life Sweeney Todd?


    Strap yourself in for theft, murder, an interesting stew, and even a cameo from the great Sir David Attenborough.

    Cindy had been harassed and attacked by a seemingly all-knowing and malevolent stalker for almost a decade. But, in all those years, despite the thousands of hours of police work spent trying to find Cindy's tormentor, detectives had nothing more than a bizarre phone message to show for it...

    In Conversation with Clair McGowan: Ireland's Vanishing Triangle May 11, 2021

    Between 1993 and 1998, eight women went missing from an area around Dublin that became known as the ‘Vanishing Triangle’. Was there a link? Speculation abounded. There were whispers of a serial killer, responsible for some, if not all, of these cases. But nobody was ever brought to justice.


    Twenty years later, the brutal murder of Jastine Valdez disturbs crime novelist Claire McGowan into action.


    Reminded, like many in Ireland, of those previous missing women, McGowan brought her skills as a novelist to the real world, setting out to uncover the truth of the vanishing triangle. As she dug deeper, she found something terrible lurking behind the idyllic image of rural Ireland and the 21st-century success story of the ‘Celtic Tiger'.

    In this exclusive interview, Claire speaks with the girls about her brand new Audible Original: 'The Vanishing Triangle', and in which attempts to uncover new evidence and solve the many questions surrounding Ireland's Vanishing Triangle.

    In Liberia's first bloody civil war, a feared warlord known as "General Butt Naked" believed that human sacrifice and cannibalism would give his army of child soldiers “divine” strength. Raping and ravaging his way through Liberia, Joshua Milton Blahyi is estimated to be responsible for the deaths of at least 20,000 people. In this episode, Suruthi and Hannah follow the trail of destruction created by Blahyi, and ask can a man once dubbed “the most evil man in the world” really change?

    In Conversation With Emily Kenway: The Truth About Modern Slavery Apr 13, 2021

    Emily Kenway is a writer and activist. As a former advisor to the UK's first Anti-Slavery Commissioner she was at the heart of modern slavery action. She has written for a variety of publications including the Guardian and TLS.


    In 2019, over 10,000 possible victims of slavery were found in the UK. From men working in Sports Direct warehouses for barely any pay, to teenaged Vietnamese girls trafficked into small town nail bars, we're told that modern slavery is all around us, operating in plain sight.


    But is this really slavery, and is it even a new phenomenon? Why has the British Conservative Party called it 'one of the great human rights issues of our time', when they usually ignore the exploitation of those at the bottom of the economic pile? The Truth About Modern Slavery reveals how modern slavery has been created as a political tool by those in power. It shows how anti-slavery action acts as a moral cloak, hiding the harms of the 'hostile environment' towards migrants, legitimising big brands' exploitation of the poorest workers and oppressing sex workers.


    Blaming the media's complicity, rich philanthropists' opportunism and our collective failure to realise the lies we're being told, The Truth About Modern Slavery provides a vital challenge to conventional narratives on modern slavery.


    Emily's incredible book 'The Truth About Modern Slavery' is available via this link

In this episode Hannah and Suruthi explore what people trafficking really is as they delve into the UK's prolific slavery network.

She had already been sacked from such a post in Uppsala after having "inappropriate relationships'' with the teenage boys in her congregation, but that wasn't about to stop Åsa. In Knutby she doubled the size of the sect and soon decided that she was in fact the bride of none other than Jesus Christ. Needless to say, the community soon found itself in cult territory...

    On 26 October 1965, in the basement of a house in Indianapolis, the police found the body of 16 year old Sylvia Likens. Her remains were covered in over 150 wounds consistent with unspeakable cruelty, torture and sexual abuse.

    As the secret project deadline hangs ominously over us, we have dug up an absolute stonker from the Patreon vaults to keep you all going!


    In the early 1980s, in a small hamlet in Central Ontario, there was a cult leader with a messiah complex so big he thought he could operate as a surgeon on the living and use his genitals to bring back the dead. Roch Thériault held a vice-like grip over his loyal followers, so tight that they would abandon their children to his surgical madness, and so firm they would abandon their partners for his harem. He called them The Ant Hill Kids, and with him, life was a living hell.

    In Conversation with Sonia Faleiro: The Good Girls Mar 16, 2021

    In May 2014, the bodies of 2 teenage girls were found hanging from a tree in the Budaun district of Uttar Pradesh in Northern India. It was reported that the girls had been victims of a gang rape.


    This story sparked scandal and rage across the nation - but there were serious questions raised about the truth of what had occurred - author and journalist Sonia Faleiro spent four long years investigating the case, talking to relatives, the police, and even the accused...


    We had the amazing opportunity to speak with Sonia about her book The Good Girls: An Ordinary Killing, which details her investigation and the events that took place. We also had the chance to pick her brains on the wider religious, societal and cultural problems plaguing the women and girls of India.


    The full video version of this interview is available for all $10+ Patrons at patreon.com/redhanded

    In a world where drug use was rampant and controversy was currency, confessions of murder weren't even enough to raise heavily painted eyebrows. This is the story of how one of New York's hottest promoters fell from grace to cause the death of a man and the death of New York's club scene.


    In this week's episode of RedHanded, we discuss the killing of Angel Melendez and how Michael Alig went from making TV appearances at the forefront of the groundbreaking Club Kid movement, to killing a man, and then chopping him up in exchange for ten bags of heroin.

    In the concluding part of this grisly series Leonarda Cianciulli sinks deeper into depravity. The fear reaches boiling point as her continued experiments, making human soap from the fat of her victims, fail to deliver. And with Leonarda's beloved son Giuseppe about to head to war - she knows she has just one last shot left to save him - and for that another woman must die...

    Leonarda Cianciulli was consumed by fear thanks to a curse her mother had placed on her. She had learned all she could about black magic from the Romani travellers who passed through her little Italian town, but still the deadly effects of the hex persisted - at least in Leonarda's mind.

    As she grew desperate, and immersed herself further into the occult, Leonarda realised it was all about the 'law of equivalent exchange'; to save a life, she'd have to take a life...

    In part 1 of this 2 part series we explore the roots of Leonarda Cianciulli's life, and what shaped her into Italy's first female serial killer.

    In Conversation with Ryan White: The Prank Show Murder of Kim Jong-nam Feb 23, 2021

    On the 13th of February 2017, the world witnessed the most high profile political assassination in decades when Kim Jong-nam was exposed to a deadly nerve agent known as VX in the centre of Kuala Lumpur International Airport. The two women who killed the exiled half-brother of Kim Jon-un, claimed they had been tricked and that they thought they were taking part in a Japanese YouTube prank show.

    We had the amazing opportunity to talk to Ryan White about the case and his new film Assassins, that follows the two legal teams who fought to save the two women (Siti Aisyah and Đoàn Thị Hươn) from Malaysia's mandatory death penalty for murder.

    On 9 February 2020, 25 year old Ingrid Escamilla was found murdered in her home. She had been stabbed to death by her partner, and then horrifically mutilated. It was just the beginning of one of Mexico's bloodiest years ever.

    Femicide in Mexico is at epidemic levels - and the link between the rampant murder of women, corruption and cartels is undeinable. In this episode we explore the horror, the violence and the impunity of what is happening across the nation - and particularly in Ciudad Juarez.

    To this day Jamal’s remains have never been found. And aside from a secretive trial conducted by the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman - the man who according to the CIA and Turkish intelligence ordered the hit - Jamal has had no justice.

The subject line read: "The Islamisation of Western Europe and the State of the European Resistance Movements", and attached was his 1500 page manifesto.

    Update on the Tuam 796 Jan 15, 2021

    In 1975 the skull of a child was discovered on the site of an old mother and baby home in Tuam, Ireland. It lead to the discovery of hundreds more children's remains that had been disguarded by nuns who ran the home. Years later fearless campaigner and historian Catherine Corless made sure everyone knew about it and enough pressure was put on the Irish government that an investigation commission was formed.


    The Mother and Baby Home report has now been released and Hannah has brought you everything you need to know. Not for the faint of heart.

    But even as her behaviour became increasingly erratic, and even as those around her started to die in mysterious ways, and even when 2 of her kids - J.J. and Tylee - vanished, it took a shockingly long time for the alarm to be raised.

    By which point, it would be far too late for the missing children...

Issues including: violence against others, animal abuse, a lack of remorse and callous unemotional traits. They share the major incidents that occurred, how Arthur is now being treated clinically and what they think the future holds for the 14 year old.

    Cassie and Mike reached out to us wanting to open up about this difficult topic to try and help anyone else who may be going through something similar, and also to give families like them a voice - we were honoured that they trusted us and we know that it will be received without judgement.

    The US military has a rape problem; 20% of women who enlist are sexually assaulted or harrassed.

    The US military also appears to have a murder problem, because a distrubing number of women who have been victims of 'command rape' are dying in mysterious circumstances.

    Vanessa Guillen was a 20 year old solider stationed at Fort Hood, Texas and on 22 April 2020 she vanished. 6 weeks later her burned, dismembered and concrete encased remains were found. Vanessa, just like LaVena Johnson and so many other women in the miliatary, appears to have been planning to report a fellow solider before she was murdered...

    Her provocative ways quickly gained her the illustrious title of "the most hated woman in America". She was so hated in fact that in 1995 when she, her son and her granddaughter went missing no one really seemed to care - that is until in 2001 when their dismembered bodies were found on a ranch in Texas...

    These killings sparked dangerous conspiracy theories across the globe, started a civil war and set in motion a series of events that led directly to the fall of the entire royal dynasty of Nepal.

    But was the right man blamed...? Was this atrocity the work of a son scorned by a love lost, or a secret military coup designed to overthrow the powerful monarchs?

    In June 2016 the chaos of Brexit reached fever pitch in the UK. One week before the referendum vote was set to take place, politician Jo Cox was savagely shot and stabbed to death outside a public library in the middle of the day. According to eyewitnesses, the assailant screamed “Britain first” as he attacked the defenceless MP. The man was soon revealed to be Thomas Mair, a dedicated neo-Nazi whose decades-long rage had seemingly been sparked into violence by Brexit.

    148: Episode 148 - Captivity: The Turpin 13 May 21, 2020

    On 13 January 2018, a 17 year old girl made a break for freedom from the house of horrors in which she’d been held captive. She called 911 and soon police stormed the disgusting house in Perris, California. They discovered several children chained to filthy beds in a nightmarish room where the floors were lined with faeces.

    The children were the escapees’ siblings, and those responsible for the torture and imprisonment, were their very own parents.

    142: Episode 142 - Johann “Jack” Unterweger: The Poet of Death Apr 09, 2020

    In Austria in 1974, Johann Unterweger was sentenced to life for the murder of a young woman. From behind bars he was soon writing beautiful poetry and painting a heartbreaking image of a man who had endured a hard childhood, made some mistakes - but who was now the poster boy for rehabilitation.

    Johann went in to prison an illiterate murderer, and with the help of his many elite supporters, he came out early - as a bestselling author. But everything wasn’t as it seemed, and this is the story of a serial killer who tricked not only his many victims, but also an entire nation.

    138: Episode 138 - Witch-Hunt: The San Antonio Satanic Panic Mar 12, 2020

    In Texas from 1997 to 1998 four lesbian Latina women were accused and convicted of sexually abusing two young girls in unbelievable devil worship rituals. Homophobia, and the rampant "satanic panic" at the time, sealed the fates of these young women and with no evidence - except the testimony of their young accusers - they were each imprisoned and labelled child rapists.

    This is the story of their fight for freedom.

    Nirbhaya means "the fearless one", and it was the name given by the Indian media to a 23 year old woman - Jyoti Singh - after she was brutally gang raped on a bus by 6 men.

    Jyoti’s rape and murder was a watershed moment in India, it made grisly headlines across the world, and brought tens of thousands of protesters onto the streets of Delhi to demand a change in how the nation deals with violence against women and girls. This horrific attack still continues to dominate the news as the four remaining convicted men are set to be hanged any day now...

    133: Episode 133 - The UK's Most Prolific Rapist: Reynhard Sinaga Feb 06, 2020

    When 18 year old, Peter, woke up in a mystery flat after a night out he was scared. It was then with horror that he realised he couldn't move his arms, and a strange man was sexually assaulting him...

    That man was Reynhard Sinaga; and thanks to Peter, in January 2020, Sinaga was finally convicted of 159 sexual offences, including 136 counts of rape.

    For years he'd been preying on the men of Manchester, England - attacking with impunity and going totally undetected thanks in large part to his innocent looks, and the copious amounts of GHB that he plied his victims with.

    This week we uncover the man behind the mugshot.

    132: Episode 132 - Michelle Carter & Conrad Roy: “Love You Forever” Jan 30, 2020

    When 18 year old Conrad Roy was found dead in his truck it looked like an obvious suicide.

    But as detectives started their investigation it soon became clear that this was anything but obvious. Conrad and his 17 year old online girlfriend, Michelle Carter, had exchanged a series of troubling messages in the lead up to his death. Ones in which Michelle seemingly encouraged Conrad to kill himself.

    Today RedHanded asks the question - did Michelle Carter cause Roy Conrad’s suicide, or was it a tragic perfect storm based on teenager’s romantic fantasy?

    When 8 month old Matthew Eappen was admitted to hospital with signs of a severe head trauma, and died just days later of his injuries, doctors and police suspected abuse.


    Louise Woodward, Matthew’s 18 year old British au pair, was quickly arrested and tried for his murder; and although she denied ever hurting the baby, many experts seriously doubted her story.


    With the medical evidence pointing in every direction, in this week’s episode Suruthi and Hannah put shaken baby syndrome and the case of Louise Woodward under the microscope...

    But the revelation that the perpetrators of this incredibly violent, sexually-motivated crime were themselves kids - even younger than Ana - raised dark questions about guilt, innocence and the idea of dangerous children.

    Jeremy Bamber is currently 35 years into of a whole of life sentence for murdering 5 members of his own family.

    124: Episode 124 - École Polytechnique: The Montreal Massacre Dec 05, 2019

    The 6th of December 2019 marks the 30 year anniversary of the Montreal massacre, a dark day in Canadian history. It was the day that gunman Marc Lépine walked into an engineering school and shot dead 14 female students.

    As he shot the women, he exclaimed that he hated feminists, and that feminists had ruined his life. This sentiment was backed up in his manifesto. A manifesto that shares a great number of themes with that of Isla Vista killer Elliot Roger, or the motivations the 2018 Toronto van killer, Alek Minnassian.

    But with the continued glorification and martyrdom of the likes of Lépine, Rodger and Minassian - how far have we really come?

    MERCH STORE: RedHandedShop.com

    In 1988 sisters Ericka and Julie Ingram were at Bible Camp when they were hit with a sudden memory. It was a memory of being sexually abused by their father, Paul Ingram - the Deputy Sheriff of Thurston County in Washington.

    As time passed their stories became more and more terrifying; they were remembering robed men attacking them, sacrificing babies and drinking blood. Were these memories real? What had really happened?

    121: Episode 121 - Jeni Haynes: The Woman With Over 2000 Personalities Nov 14, 2019

    In February 2019 in The District Court of New South Wales a woman named Jeni Haynes entered the witness box - but she wasn't alone. 6 different personalities spoke that day through Jeni's body; in a landmark case that saw a person with DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder, formerly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder) testify in her many alters, and secure a conviction.

    This week the ladies cover this truly inspirational story.


    Jeni's DID came from the abuse that she had suffered as a child at the hands of her father, Jeni's mind split into over 2000 “self-states” or personalities. These alters were there to protect Jeni - and to this day she is adamant that her DID saved her soul.

    Join Suruthi and Hannah as they delve into her astonishing condition, the tragic impact it’s all had on her life and also her brave pursuit of justice.

    120: Episode 120 - Kermit Gosnell: Doctor Death Nov 07, 2019

    In a filthy clinic in West Philadelphia that had been left uninspected for years, despite a sizeable drugs bust, Dr Kermit Gosnell was exploiting poor, desperate women seeking to terminate their pregnancies after the legal limit of 24 weeks.

    His absolute callous recklessness makes this one of the more grisly crimes that RedHanded has delved into - given the subject matter, listener discretion is advised.

    In May 1999 a scared 14 year old girl walked into a Hong Kong police station and told the confused officers that she was being terrorised by a ghost. At first the police didn’t take her seriously, but then she elaborated that the reason this ghost was haunting her, was because she had helped to torture a young woman named Fan Man-yee to death. The girl then led police to a flat in the city, and what they found there shocked even a nation going through an already unbelievably violent decade...

    116: Episode 116 - Hannah Foster: Followed Oct 17, 2019

    For weeks 17 year old Hannah Foster had been experiencing an uneasy feeling; she was sure that a strange man was following her.

    Terrifyingly, she wasn’t just imagining things...

    And one night, when Hannah was just yards from her front door, she was abducted. 6 days later her body was found.

    The stellar police investigation that followed quickly identified a suspect, but unbelievably he had already fled the UK and disappeared to India, a nation of over a billion people. Navigating racial tensions and cross nation cooperation meant that bringing Hannah’s killer to justice was not going to be an easy task.

    115: Episode 115 - The Yuba 5 Oct 10, 2019

    In 1978, five men piled into a car after a local basketball game, they stopped at a shop to pick up some snacks and then they vanished. The next day their car was found on a mountain road, without a scratch, half a tank of petrol and in perfect running order. Why would the men have left the car and entered the freezing wilderness?

    It wasn’t until the summer that four of the men were found, well at least their bodies were...but the discoveries only deepened the mystery; one of the men was even found in a trailer, surrounded by food - but had seemingly starved to death.

    To this day Gary Mathias, man number five, remains missing - leaving us asking the question what happened to the Yuba 5?

    Between 1986 and 1987 in Pennsylvania, self-appointed “Bishop” Gary Heidnik abducted six women and held them prisoner in a pit that he’d dug into the floor of his basement. The brutal torture that these women suffered at Heidnik’s hands is incomprehensible - especially when you consider that the entire time Heidnik was running his own church just meters above where these women were trapped.

    In the early hours of the following morning Warriena plunged to her death from Tostee’s balcony.

    This case truly is a mystery, and normally it would be impossible for anyone to deduce what had happened behind closed doors that night - but unbelievably with this story we have over 3 hours of audio recorded by Tostee himself...

    111: Episode 111 - Tortured to Death: Kelly Anne Bates Sep 12, 2019

    On the 16th of April 1996 James Patterson Smith walked into Gorton police station and told officers that his 17 year old girlfriend had drowned in the bath. This was of course a lie; Kelly Anne had sustained weeks of torture at the hands of Smith - and her story left even seasoned detectives and pathologists lost for words. So brutal was the crime that it was the first time in Manchester Crown Court that jurors were offered counselling, every single one accepted.

At the age of 22 she began dating a 16 year old boy named Zachary Brooks. And while this may sound predatory, it wasn't Vera who was the dangerous one. It was the matriarch of the Brooks family - Cheri Brooks aka "Sugar Babe".

    When Vera got pregnant, Cheri's determination to meet her grandchild created a horrifyingly dangerous situation for the young mother.
