This case is being heard at Winchester Crown Court during December 2024. Amie Gray was murdered by Nasen Saadi on Bournemouth Beach as he was curious to known what it would be like to kill someone according to the prosecution.
This is a short podcast giving an overview of what is known as the case is live and seems to be attracting some media interest.
Apologies for the sound of a noisy dog during recording.
I will post part 2 at the conclusion of the court case.
edit 1: Just to be clear Saadi is pleading not guilty to murder and attempted murder, during the pod, I think I mistakenly said that he was pleading guilty. -

This case was heard in court this month, October 2024, the media reported on the case which caused much interest, an unarmed black male being shot by an armed police officer in London. The last time such an event attracted so much attention in 2011, there was a week of rioting across the country.
To avoid a repetition, the authorities decided to charge the police officer with murder trying to defuse a reaction. When the case was heard in court, the officer was found not guilty and it seemed that mass demonstrations being planned may turn into disorder. However the criminal past of Chris Kaba was then released which seemed to change many people's attitude towards the shooting. -

A well known unsolved murder from 2004 when a 30 year old banker who worked for HBOS, Alistair Wilson was shot on the doorstep of his home on a Sunday evening. There are lots of theories but it is looking like that the case will remain unsolved.

This horrific and little known incident which resulted in the death of two 16 year old children who had been been to church in 1961 at Gravesend. The story is unpleasant but serves as a case history of paraphilic coercive disorder. This is told in one take without editing.
I have just realised this is podcast number 200! I am posting on Facebook Strange Stories UK again. If you wish to send a message please do so through F/B. -

This is the first of a series of podcasts regarding some incidents in the UK (London) that took place 100 years ago and caused a 'moral panic'. This first podcast tells of how drugs, (class A drugs as we understand them today) were introduced into the UK, at first accepted but then rejected after misuse. The second podcast will be about what was known as 'White Slavery' 100 years ago but as we better understand as human trafficking. Then I will broadcast some podcasts based on these podcasts and police reports of the time. Incidents that are mainly forgotten today. I will post the next pod shortly.
This podcast has not been edited in anyway, and has been recorded in one take. I apologise in advance for any mispronounceations. -

I have put this short podcast together on Wednesday evening, a couple of days since an incident in Leicester Square which saw a young girl randomly stabbed. The 11 year old girl was visiting from Australia and is still in hospital. It is a bit of a rant against the state of the UK so probably best to give it a miss.
It has been written and posted in the space of an afternoon so as you can imagine it is not a professionally produced podcast.
I wanted to post another podcast after the one I made about the Southport stabbings which was what was known about the incident two days later; so I have attempted to do the same here. This incident will be quickly forgotton by most but it seems quite worrying to me that such an incident can happen against a tourist in Central London. To me it is a sympthon that something is wrong in the UK. The next podcast will back to what I usually post. I just felt I needed to make a comment about stabbings against young children in the summer of 2024. -

Quite a complicated story which I have tried to simplify. This is a well known case in the North East, still just about in living memory (1967). It is a case of miscarriage of justice, organised crime and corruption in the Newcastle, County Durham area.
This podcast is one man in his office putting out a story the way he understands it. I know that I am not very good at presenting but thank you to those who have contacted me to make sure that I know this. -

I can't find any mention of these 1971 murders on the internet. The information is taken from police files and as information is scant, it is a short episode.

1920s in the UK the Authorities were worried about the behaviour of some of the young people who were later called 'The Bright Young things'. The Establishment were worried about nightclubs, dancing and drinking and the Home Secretary was determined to do something about it. When he found out about a scandal at Eton College where boys were supposedly being seduced by actresses, he was determined to make an example of Tallulah Bankhead, an American actress who seemed to be pleased to be called the most immoral woman in the world.

I am posting this short podcast as the podcasts that I have been working on have become rather complicated, I will finish and broadcast them later. One is about corruption in the Metropolitan police force in London during the 1970s, the other is a paranormal case.
I have started and completed this short podcast on a rainy Sunday in May 2024. The story comes from 1973 from Swanage in Dorset. I would imagine it is largely forgotten now. It is recorded in one take without editing. One mistake I realised was that I mentioned a phone call being the price of the average woman’s wage in 1973, what I had not made clear was this referred to aweekly weekly wage as a twenty minute phone call would have been about £25 -

What is the largest fish caught in British freshwaters and are they dangerous? This episode is about a huge creature that lived in Martin Mere that was said to feed on swans! Some of the podcast is rather silly but all of it true.
There is a Slightly boring opening about geological features, folklore and drainage systems, this lasts about five minutes, so maybe skip that part.
As usual please be warned this is a lo fi production by someone that often stumbles over words and records in one take without any editing.
