Show notes

A sad case from mid-1980's East London this week on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, where we hear the tale of an individual who was willing to go to the most unimaginable means for self gain and preservation - regardless of who was hurt, and what the ultimate cost was.

The Carstairs Trilogy is rounded off this week on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, with a look at two tales of a couple of other patients to have been in residence there, and the reasons that they came to be.

Carstairs: The Scottish Chain Of 10 (Part 2) A Soldier, His Friend, And His Father Jan 31, 2019

Show notes

Part 2 of The Carstairs Trilogy this week on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, with the second part of The Scottish Chain Of 10. This week, if it's a tale that you don't already know - then after the episode, there will be at least one name that you will probably never forget.

And it is one hell of an unbelievable tale.

Carstairs: The Scottish Chain Of 10 (Part 1) - The "Gnome" Who Spoke To God Jan 24, 2019

Show notes

Part 1 of a multi-part episode on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast this week, as we head north of the UK to Scotland to look at a remarkable case that loosely links a series of ten deaths. It stretches over a number of locations and a number of years, and it involves cars, guns, religion, escapes. alcohol - and a macabre case of one-upmanship.

And it begins with the strange tale of this guy.
