Halloween dates back over 2000 years to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced Sown). November 1st, the Celtic new year, marked the end of summer and harvest and the beginning of a long, cold, dark winter for Celts, who inhabited areas that are now known as Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France. This time of year in particular was associated with human death and Celts believed that on the night before new year, the boundaries between the worlds of the living and the dead became murky and blurred. On the evening of October 31st, Celts and Druids would celebrate Samhain, where it was believed that the ghosts of the deceased returned to earth, by building large bonfires where people gathered to burn crops and animals as a sacrifice to the Celtic deities. The Celts wore costumes, such as animal heads and skins, they attempted to tell each other’s fortunes and when the celebrations were over, the fires were re-lit to protect them during winter.

The idea of being murdered by a complete stranger is a significant fear that has been mentioned several times on this podcast, however, more recently, has been discussed at length in the news and on social media following the murder of Sarah Everard. This horrific murder has solidified women’s fear around walking alone in the dark, and has ignited significant conversations surrounding women’s trepidations and how men can make us feel safer. According to a recent survey by UN Women UK, 97% of women in the UK have experienced sexual harassment.

It’s impossible to put an exact number on the amount of stranger abductions in the US in the 1980s. Child Find, a missing children organisation, suggested the number was roughly 600 per year, with the FBI reporting 67 cases and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children holding records for 142 cases of stranger abduction. Law enforcements suggested that 95% of missing children in the 1980s were runaway teens, who typically returned home within 3 days. The majority of the rest of that proportion are parental abductions who are in custody disputes and only a small minority of missing children are actually abducted by a complete stranger.

Nature vs nurture is a longstanding debate in the world of psychology that discusses the extent to which certain aspects of our behaviour are either inherited via genetics, or the influence of external factors. Approaches vary, with the biological approach focusing on genetics and hormones to explain behaviour, and behaviourism suggesting that all behaviour is learned, via conditioning, from the surrounding environment. In more recent years, psychologists have become interested in how genetics and external influences interact with each other to shape our behaviour, rather than seeing them as 2 separate entities. It seems likely that our behaviour is a result of both genetics inherited from our parents, and learned behaviours from our environment.

A huge thank you to Stuart from British Murders and Jenny from It’s Murder Up North for their voice over for this episode.
Plan International UK suggests that 63% of women in Britain feel unsafe walking alone in the dark. It’s an innate fear, one that’s reinforced in childhood. Stranger danger dictates that all strangers are dangerous, and that you should never interact with strangers in the street, a child should never accept sweets off of a stranger and you should never walk off or get into a car with a stranger. The occurrence of the Moors Murders, murders committed by Levi Bellfield and the abduction and murder of Sarah Payne in 2000, has made the idea of stranger danger even more significant. While most of these warnings are aimed at children, adults should remain wary of strangers too, because while stranger abductions are extremely rare in the UK, they do happen.

They say your teenage years are the best years of life. You begin to make long-term friendships and these friends become an important fixture in your life, you start going to parties and school either becomes more or less of a priority. You get your first ever job, you learn how to drive and buy your first car with your savings, you start to develop an interest in the opposite, or same, sex. Your personality blossoms, you learn more about yourself everyday and you develop independence and a sense of identity. Whilst most teenagers develop mentally and physically, others get lost and lose direction in their life.

Social media has taken the world by storm in the last decade. It’s become a platform to express your thoughts and feelings and a way to connect with old friends you’ve not spoken to for years. You can see what your aunt had for dinner last night, how your nephew’s first day of school went or the troubles the couple down the street are having in their relationship, all just a click away. Most people use social media nowadays to share funny stories, news, successes, selfies, pictures of their pets, kids and houses. While most use social media to keep up with the lives of their friends and family, predators use it to prey on, potentially vulnerable, victims and lull them into a false sense of security.

Singapore was considered one of the British Empire’s most impenetrable islands, which is why the Fall of Singapore is described as one of the British Army’s biggest defeats and by far the worst defeat it suffered during World War 2. The Battle of Singapore began on the 8th of February 1942, when Japan, who were experienced in combat after several battles, invaded Singapore. The battle, which was fought fast and violently by Japan, took place over a 7 day period, resulting in roughly 10,000 casualties, anywhere between 80,000 and 100,000 troops becoming prisoners of war, and eventually, the surrender of Singapore. Whilst the Japanese and the British army were fighting for occupation of Singapore, police in Britain were fighting a battle of their own; attempting to identify a brutal killer, before he had the chance to claim any more women’s lives.

It’s not a crime to go missing, adults voluntarily go missing all the time. The charity Missing People suggest that roughly 176,000 individuals are reported missing each year, with 100,000 of these being adults. 75% of adults either return or are found within 24 hours and 5% are missing longer than a week. As of the 31st of March 2019, nearly 3000 adults were classed as “long-term missing individuals''. As Christmas 2020 is around the corner, lots of families will have an empty chair at the dinner table, a chair that for many, has been vacant for far too long. Alongside Fern from Evidence of a Crime and Madeline from Crimeatorium, I’m going to tell you about a few of their stories. Maybe one of our listeners holds the key to finding even one of these missing individuals.

The 25th of May is International Missing Children’s Day, first initiated by Ronald Reagan in 1983 and is in place to not only bring awareness to the thousands of missing children worldwide but to also honour organisations who put up a daily fight for these missing children. Whilst most children run away of their own accord, due to bullying or a poor family life, 1 in 5 are at risk of being sexually exploited. There are several charities based in the UK that work to support children and young adults. The Child Exploitation and Online Protection centre provide useful resources and advice to safeguard children against the dangers of sexual exploitation and online sexual abuse. Missing People is a well-known charity that works to support the families of people who have gone missing and also attempt to support the people who go missing too, by offering a listening ear if a child wants to confide in someone but doesn’t trust or have anyone they can talk to. They try to provide advice to children who are considering going missing, but also act as a mediator for children who have run away and don’t wish to talk to their families. Childline is run 24/7, provided by the NSPCC and is a service to provide advice and guidance to children who are suffering from domestic violence, abuse or who are considering running away from home.

Broadmoor Hospital in Berkshire is a high security psychiatric hospital that houses some of Britain's most notorious and dangerous criminals, including Robert Napper, Peter Sutcliffe and John Straffen. Broadmoor Hospital is run by the NHS and serves to prove that there is a credible link between mental illness and violent crime. In an article for GQ Magazine in June 2019, Dr Das, a forensic psychiatrist, confirms that whilst not all mental illness will cause a person to become violent, there is definitely a link between certain mental illnesses and violent crimes such as grievous bodily harm, sexual assault and murder. The most common diagnoses amongst imprisoned, dangerous individuals are psychotic illnesses, including schizophrenia, schizo-affective disorder and bipolar disorder. Whilst this doesn't guarantee a person with these conditions will immediately become a danger to others, aggression is known to be portrayed as a direct result of symptoms such as paranoid delusions or auditory hallucinations displayed by individuals with schizophrenia. The link between mental health and violent crime is muddied slightly by confounding factors such as drugs and alcohol, being a victim of physical, sexual or emotional abuse in younger years, an unstable childhood or family home and being exposed to violence, such as domestic abuse.

The UK charity Missing People suggests that 1 person is reported missing every 90 seconds and the Government website suggests that around 200,000 people go missing each year. In most cases of a missing adult or child, there may be conflict at home that the individual is trying to escape from, they may have gotten lost or simply wanted to start afresh in a new location with a new identity. These are considered normal missing persons cases and the individual is typically located, safe, within hours or days of them disappearing. However, the more confusing, mystifying and maybe even just outright creepy cases, are the ones where individuals vanish into thin air. They’re the ones where families never get answers, where there are no credible sightings of the individual and where in some cases, the missing person is never seen again.

The police and the CPS have defined a hate crime as "any criminal offence which is perceived by the victim or any other person, to be motivated by hostility or prejudice, based on a person's disability or perceived disability; race or perceived race; or religion or perceived religion; or sexual orientation or perceived sexual orientation or transgender identity or perceived transgender identity." A hate crime can be committed by a wide variety of people, including a friend, acquaintance, or complete stranger and the term covers a wide range of crimes, including verbal abuse, harassment, intimidation, making threats and bullying another individual. In 2016-2017, in 83% of cases that were prosecuted, the perpetrator pleaded guilty or was found guilty by a jury of their peers. The CPS are able to put in an application to the courts for a sentence uplift, whereby the imposed sentence on the perpetrator is increased due to the serious and violent nature of hate crimes.

As podcasters, we have a platform and duty to speak up and call out injustice. In light of the murder of George Floyd, we have come together in solidarity to use our platform to speak up against racial injustice and amplify the voices of black podcasters that deserve more recognition. Racism is prevalent in all industries; from the media who under-report on black victims to the justice system which routinely fails black victims. In this collaborative episode, we document black history and current events with the voices of those who have lived through it.

Cannibalism is the act of a human consuming the flesh of another human. The practice of cannibalism, also known as anthropophagy, dates back to early human history but coined it’s name after a West Indies tribe, the Carib, who are well known to have eaten the flesh of their acquaintances. The Spanish name for the Carib, who could be located in Southern America, is Caribales or Canibales, which is where the term cannibalism derived from. Cannibalism is practiced all across the world for different reasons; some see it ritualistic, Australian Aboriginals viewed it as an act of respect for the deceased and for some, it’s just a means to an end in a dire situation when no other food is available.

According to Mencap, a learning disability is “a reduced intellectual ability and difficulty with everyday activities which affects someone for their whole life.” Typically, it can take a person with a learning disability longer to learn new things and they may need extra help to develop new skills or interact with others. Around 1.5 million people in the UK have a learning disability and 351,000 of these are children aged between 0-17. There are different conditions that make a person more likely to have a learning disability. The majority of people with Down’s Syndrome and Williams Syndrome will more than likely have some level of learning disability. About half of people with Autism or Asperger’s Syndrome will have a form of learning disability. Different types of learning disability exist, with some people presenting with only mild symptoms which makes it slightly more difficult to diagnose. Other people may have moderate or even severe learning disabilities and these people may need significantly more help, including with personal care, mobility and communication. Learning disabilities often get confused with learning difficulties, which umbrella conditions such as ADHD and dyslexia however it is possible for a person to have both a learning disability and a learning difficulty.

In police’s Authorised Professional Practice, the term missing is defined as “anyone whose whereabouts cannot be established will be considered as missing until located, and their well-being or otherwise confirmed.” In the UK, 1 person is reported as a missing person every 90 seconds. That’s 180,000 being reported as missing every year. It is more likely that a child will be reported missing than an adult, with 1 in 200 children going missing each year, compared to 1 in 500 adults. Research conducted over previous years has demonstrated that conflict, abuse and neglect in the home, sexual exploitation and mental health issues are among the top reasons children go missing. When children contact childline, the common issues they raise include problems at home, abuse, sexual exploitation, domestic violence and mental health issues. Despite these statistics, consequences of underreporting make it highly possible that these figures are inaccurate and in fact, the number of people that go missing each year may well be higher. Missing People suggests that as many as 7 in 10 children that go missing aren’t reported as a missing person, begging the question as to the real number of people that go missing each year.

According to an article written by Caralynn Lippo in April 2017 for Redbook magazine, traditional wedding vows can be traced as far back as the Book of Common Prayer written by the Archbishop of Cantebury Thomas Cranmer in 1549. The vows have been adapted significantly over the years, specifically the vow we now know as “til death do us part.” In the original version of the book, this vow was known as “till death us depart” before it was changed in 1662 to “till death us do part.” It was modified some time after to what we now know it as, “till death do us part” and has remained a stable part of wedding vows ever since. “Till death do us part” is an ominous vow to make, with 100s of thousands of divorces taking place each year. In Catholicism, “till death do us part” is taken literally, meaning that only God himself can interfere with a marriage and that the only manner in which a couple’s marriage will end, is if one of them dies. Emile Cilliers also took the vow extremely literally and couldn’t wait for God’s interference to end his marriage, thus, an extravagant murder plot was born.

According to the Open Society Foundations, sex workers are “adults who receive money or goods in exchange for consensual sexual services or erotic performances, either regularly or occasionally.” The term sex worker is preferred over prostitution, as sex worker recognises that it is work. Prostitution has negative connotations and denotes criminal behaviour. People fall into sex work for a variety of reasons, but the main factor seems to be that they are fighting poverty and sex work is the only option that will financially better their lives and enable them to keep a roof over their heads and feed themselves and their children. Another reason people fall into sex work is because it allows flexibility and the pay is typically much better than other jobs. Some people simply use sex as a way to explore their sexuality. Either way, sex workers are seen as an ideal target for predators, who prey on their victims believing that if they go missing, they will not be missed and it may not even be noted for a while that that person is missing. This is why sex workers are often hunted by serial killers. Follow us on Twitter and Tumblr (@murderandmore), Instagram (@murderandmorepod) and Facebook (Murder and More Podcast/@mandmpod).
