Episode Twenty Eight, The Moorgate Train Disaster May 09, 2021

Show notes

At the height of rush hour on the morning of the 28th of February 1975, 300 passengers sat, stood and leant on all areas of the packed tube heading to it's final stop at Moorgate station.
Passengers and the guard towards the rear of the train realised the train wasn't slowing and was in fact accelerating. They began to panic, but had just seconds before darkness engulfed the 6 carriages and the piercing noise of the crash, metal and glass breaking took over. This was followed by deafening silence. Shock. Quiet. And then an ear piercing scream, following by shouting, crying, and smoke.

Show notes

After there was still no answer at the door, Mary decided to enter the house, and as she did, she noticed it to be eerily quiet. As she got further into the hallway, she noticed a dark figure lying on the floor, and as she got closer, she noticed that Robert was lying facedown on the floor, and his head was caved in. The surrounding walls and carpets were covered with blood.

Episode Twenty Three, Jassi Sidhu Feb 28, 2021

Show notes

Jody pulled Jassi to the side and told her what she'd seen- Jassi was horrified. She couldn't be alone or free of them even at work. Jassi pointed out her uncle, a man with a long white beard. She told Jody her uncle was the stern one, and the person who made all the decisions for the family. She told Jody, if anything happened to her, if she ever went missing... Jody should tell the police, it was him.

Episode Twenty Two, Brian Waters Feb 15, 2021

Show notes

One of the men then forced Gavin to call his mother, Julie, and tell her some of his friends were coming round to pick something up. Otis and Christopher then drove to the house and pulled up in the drive. As soon as Julie opened the door, the men ambushed her and searched the house for valuable and money. As soon as they were done, they forced Julie into the boot of the car before covering her with a duvet and shutting her in.

They then drove her back to the farm and left her in the boot, whilst they headed inside...

Episode Twenty One, Germanwings Flight 9525 - Lea Drüppel Feb 01, 2021

Show notes

By now, the Captain could feel the plane making an unexpected descent, and banged on the cockpit door. He shouted "It's me!".

Andreas could, at this point, see the Captain's face on a screen connected to a camera on the cockpit door. Andreas didn't react. The Captain then grabbed some kind of extinguisher or oxygen tank, and attempted to break down the door. He called back to one of the crew members to rush and get a hidden crowbar, while he shouted to Andreas "For the love of God, open this door!"

Episode Twenty, Marion Price Jan 18, 2021

Show notes

Marion took out a cigarette, and as she went to take her lighter out, she heard the sound of a motorbike close by, and then noticed a shadow to the right of her. As she turned to the right, she realised that a figure on a motorbike had actually driven right up to the side of the car, and was facing her. To her horror, the figure then pointed the long barrel of a shotgun toward her face.

PLEASE NOTE: This is a very recent case- towards the end of the episode, I say that the updated details of sentencing will be in the Show Notes, but I have managed to find and included a soundbite in the actual episode, so keep listening to the end!
