Sasha..so faithful, badly
- injured and still going after her master's murderers..😭 Were those cowards ever caught??
Yes...the case is marked solved in comments.
SOo, I believe they were caught..at least one of them.
Tragic for all involved.
Mr. Comely, his wife and children.
And Sasha of course.
What a cowardly thing to do.....for basically nothing....as they found the watches burnt, I believe.
The dog story ..so sad! 😢 poor man and his brave hero. The people are the animals !
They should have put a plaque up in the street in honour of that dog and its owner !!!!
True, that loyal dog was just trying to protect her owner - and she was murdered for it by a coward with a gun. God bless her huge, loving heart.
Sad to see how many are unsolved
Absolutely mind boggling
Before DNA and all the other hi-tech delights.
@@user-zr3pj5tk7k they've actually solved two of the cases with DNA now:
1) The Wendy Knell case was solved in 2021 with DNA evidence. It transpired that her murderer was the now notorious David Fuller, who was convicted of sexually abusing dead bodies in a hospital. He also killed another woman, Caroline Pierce.
the Shani Warren case was solved in 2022 because of DNA evidence. Robert Donaldson was convicted of her murder. The DNA evidence also convicted him of the 1981 kidnap and rape of a 16 year old girl in Slough.
Update: two of these cases have since been solved.

The lack of CCTV and mobile phones in 1987 gave killers a good chance of getting away with it. Undoubtedly much harder today. I'm intrigued to know what the motive was to kill the first victim featured, John Gaspa. Clearly a professional hit.
Been watching these instead of TV these are better
Absolutely correct - TV is crap🤦
Im watchin 2022
Yes
@@roberttalbot6397 me too
@@robswan4786 yes, also they say what happened to the criminals in each case sometimes anyway, or I think wow ,they have done so much jail by now and will be out we are talking 40 + yrs ago in some cases
These are very tragic cases. Some weirdo's try to get girls into their cars but with hitching the girl willingly gets into the car of a stranger! Dangerous. The dog that was shot & chased his owners killers 1:01:00 while bleeding to death was horrid! I hate cruelty to animals.
I hate murder to people more
That’s dreadful. The poor dog did no harm to anyone. I totally agree. I hate things like this. Heartbreaking
I love animals so much... they never let us down ....It breaks my heart when I hear of animal cruelty....I'm not in to people much ....I'd much sooner be surrounded by my beloved animals that's when I'm happiest 😌
It is a pity the dog could not have attacked them. It was big. They would have been wounded and had to go to hospital, and there would have been DNA.
Poor little soul, what a disgusting sub-human to do that to a dog.
Sasha the dog 😢
RIP to all victims.
i was really sad seeing that beautiful dog even though injured went after the attackers sad seeing the dog die
Thank u for recording and uploading these awesome long lost Crimewatch UK episodes!! I'm an American and a big true crime enthusiast and love Crimewatch UK!!!
Is your name Miss Marple?

A 67 year old man was arrested and charged with Wendy knell's murder a few months ago.
And shani Warren a man has just been arrested

The unsolved podcast is worth a listen for information on the Daniel Morgan murder
will check it out
Could you give me a link, I can’t seem to find it. Thanks.
Poor Mr Cummins trying to scrape a living in his little shop and those rotten swines doing that to him and his darling dog, hope they got the b******s !!!
I know - heart breaking that those scumbags also killed his loyal dog. Poor darling girl, she didn't deserve that.
It says it was solved in the comments...
so they caught at least one of those hideous cowards....taking a man's life for a few gold chains..
I think they burnt the watches.
I feel sorry for Rachel and I don’t like the way those girls were laughing at her.
Yes quite tragic!
My god looks like one of the bay city rollers!
There are 2 women named Rachel in this episode.
The girls that were laughing at Rachel Applethwait were fellow prostitutes.
So, as always, it was a case of bullies projecting their low self esteem.
The Wendy Knell case has now been solved
Yes, her killer was a depraved hospital mortuary worker , he was sickening.
@@memoir4you Electrician. Creep making a decent trade look bad...
Didn't they solve the Wendy Knell one. David Fuller? They got someone for Shani Warren, too. He got 30 years, so at least a good sentence.
Yes. David Fuller the necrophiliac electrician at the hospital raped corpses from infants to 90 years old and took photos, I think it was Fuller who rang the bell and said: "You shouldn't leave your window open.."
There's a documentary about him somewhere here.
Yes it was, although this was uploaded before he was convicted.
I read that the first murder, John Gaspa. was thought to be linked to gambling debts.
Yes, I read the same thing as well
Poor Sasha :( Lovely dog.
"You shouldn't leave your window open, especially in the bedroom"
Cheers, you big weirdo 👍.
I wonder if he’s the geezer that was arrested for Wendy’s murder recently.
@@Lushgirl81 i think it was.fuller the corpse raper.
@@anthonyboyce8844 I read about that last week. Absolutely disgusting.
@@Lushgirl81 The artist's impression looks like David Fuller in my opinion.
@@noongourfain
I agree.....a young David Fuller was creeping around that neighborhood.
He was an electrician.
Maybe he had been hired to work in that old building that had chopped up into bedsits?
So if Rachel partridge or her boyfriend has a mobile none of that would have happened. She would have simply text him “I’m at my friends getting a tan, come get me in 20”, he would have picked her up on the moped and that’s that. So sad
Couldn't she have phoned him from her friends house ?
@IAN PAYNE could have, but he might not have been home and therefore not answered so wouldn't have known
Her mother must be really feeling guilty, cos if she had picked her up it would not have happened. Imagine living with the guilt.
mobile phone ? It was 1987 😂
@@mickykedian7753 I think this is the point the person was trying to make! If there had been mobile phones in those days, the outcome would have been different.
thanks. great program. i like the sober tone, without any background music.
Poor Sacha 😑 karma to the bast*rd who done that!!!
So disgusting that they killed that lovely, loyal dog, just trying to protect her owner. God bless her - and may they rot in hell.
@@glamdolly30Indeed. Dogs are angels, their loyalty is unbelievable - how anyone could harm such an animal, no idea ☹️😥
Helen Fleet is a very known case in Weston-super-Mare (I live down there). Sadly still unsolved today. One of her surviving relatives did an appeal in 2017 on the 30th anniversary, but no new leads at all. It is seen as a cowardly attack on an old lady and the area where she was killed, is a popular beauty spot in the town. Unfortunately, I really can't see that case solved as the killer is probably dead themselves. RIP xx
Possible link to the Kate Bushell and Lyn Bryant murders.
I think the same thing with cases like Debbie Linsley. Anyone capable of so much violence and force is probably dead by now.
That murder was committed by a local youth and he's being protected by family to this day.
@@anthonymcken6050 That does not surprise me down here. No disrespect to the majority of people down here, but there's a lot of covering backs as it's a small place and we're like Romania how were governed.
@@anthonymcken6050 Plus throw in Avon & Somerset isn't a good force.
I wonder how those womens in the pub that had psyhical fight with Rachel feel when they that she died . Horrible cows
Why should they feel anything- they had nothing to do with her death. Unfortunately Rachel’s life was on a downward spiral and that pimp boyfriend didn’t help
@09weenic They may not contribute to her death but the fact they fought it was okay to be nasty roaches says a lot about their character
The jewellers case was the changing face of London pity he didnt get out sooner. I was there then.
1:16:33, I bet Rachael’s mother is regretting not giving her daughter a ride home!
Total agreed her mother put the father's needs first without thinking that it was unsafe for her to hitchhike
@@Maz-zb9uf I believe that's a story every parent should watch, the next time they're irritated by a child's request for a ride!
The husband killed Linda
Thank you for all your YEARLY uploads :) . Are you going to continue? I cat see any beyond 1993?
we will be, just having a break for a few weeks while we work on some other content, 1993 and 1994 are certainly in the works, after that we will play it by ear
@@RetroPixels YAY!
Any more updates on this . Many thanks
Robert Kirkby doesnt appear so
Thats a shame
Getting keys cut is much less complicated than that, I never had to go to such lengths to get a key cut in those days - very odd !!!!
Perhaps they were listed as security keys?
Those were not any keys - they were the very best, Banham locks. They have security protocols attached to stop criminals copying keys - sadly those protocols failed in the case of John Gaspa.
@@glamdolly30 Thanks for that explanation I've always wondered. Is Banham still trading?
28:50, the case of Daniel Morgan.
The actor who played the Daniel Morgan did a brilliant job!
It was actually so bad that Crimewatch had to do another one later
I thought he was great - really stole the show!
I wonder if the real Daniel Morgan had that limp?
@@pattymelt-go3fvapparently it was nothing like as bad as depicted here
I can't find anything online about Christopher Comely's murderer(s)- did it take them a long time to find them?
Thanks for these videos.
I remember watching most of these at the time, always missed crimewatch updates though. Would live to see how many of these were solved.
Very few of them frustratingly.
@@nathaniliescu4597 frustrating but not surprising considering the techniques back then in regards to DNA etc were nowhere near like they are now.
I think CCTV is often the first and most useful investigative tool today. DNA only helps if you have a suspect.
@@Breasail Agreed, CCTV has been a huge breakthrough in catching killers, also mobile phones which place people at specific locations.
Rachel and Maria murders are tragic, very sad!!!!
Did they ever locate that "P Suarez" or "T.K", who's names were on the clothing Rachel Aperwaite was wearing at the time of her death...
@@joshuaedwards4536 Please confirm that you have received a previous message.

Ian blair went to the top in the met but never solved this murder
I used to work Mitre Bridge signal box
The jeweler Christopher Comely with his dog Sasha is described in the link as solved. Yet it appears on the site of Britain unsolved murders as unsolved. Google doesn’t show any information about someone being arrested.
I lived in Bayswater in 1987. Scary.
Anyone else used to shit their pants watching this??
we still do
@@RetroPixels 😂😂
@@RetroPixels 😱😱
Yes but be fair, I was only a couple months old in 1987
@@DonerKetty 🤣
Mobiles and social media can be a pain the arse as times, however, if only some of these victims had them in 1987!
I do wonder if social media has actually led to more murders too
I think the omnipresence of CCTV cameras has been a big boon in fighting crime.
georgina cat nope I can confidently assure you it has lead to a decrease and when you think about it why wouldn’t it? Everyone’s a news reporter these days. Everyone has a camera on hand, a live tv camera at that with an endless audience ready to be broadcasted too. If a child goes missing, if something is happening the public know about it pretty instantly and if they don’t then at least the suspects are recorded. Google London’s murder statistics and see how they compare to the 90s. Much safer time nowadays. Especially in regards to child murderers and serial killers.
I know, you could send out a twitter post in 2 seconds during an attack and someone could help you immediately!
I know those woods in Weston super mare it's massive,where that lady was killed no one was caught
1:17:30 Sunbeds were very expensive in the 80s and her friend had one. So couldn't her friend have called her a cab? Some friend!
There aren't taxis many in Thame in 2019 and they are very expensive so it might not have been possible.
Or spend the night,
or get a tan on the beach in Italy......she was going there the next day.
Terrible, avoidable tragedy.
@@pattymelt-go3fv Maybe she should have stayed at home her whole life.
@@owainmeurig I was just giving all her alternatives to hitch hiking. Just don't hitch hike. I thought it would be safe to do with another person once. Wrong.
I didn't realise it at the time but I lived in Monimail at the time. I used to walk the local headmaster's Dog in the woods on the other side of the roundabout right next to Melville Lower Wood where Lynda Hunter's body was found.
I thought she was found in Ladybank Wood?
Her poor dog didn't have a happy end.
@@pattymelt-go3fv I'm sure it was Melville Lower Wood, it's only along the road a bit from Ladybank wood.
Oh man I'm not even a dog person but that is fucking sad.😢
Then u need ur head giving g a wobble.....DOGS are absolutely amazing phenomenal beautiful animals we are blessed 🙌🏿 with from God so loyal more lovi g than humans !!!!! 💯
@@Levineclifton82so God gave us XL Bully's then? That kill men, women and children. Interesting move there God...
The Policeman, Ian Blair at 7:19 - he became Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police in 2005.
Yes l know
@@IanP1963 I didn't ask you.
@@eamonnevans8005 Well I am answering !!
It puts me too Sleep at night how bads thst, think it's the voices
Who was convicted of the Christopher Conley murder ? Cant find anything.
There was a person who showed crime watch and at the end said what happened to the perpetrators. He had the name of some galactic 🌟 star a couple of years ago.
You would think they could solve Rachel Partridge's murder with DNA by now?
She would be 52.
Peace to the family and her boy friend.
oooops my bad
Rachel's murder WAS solved.
Guy looked just like the weird artist's impression.
It was solved through DNA one of the first cases.
Ronald Cheshire was jailed for her murder 2 years after.
He was a local man, a serial sex offender and a policeman's son.
As he was about to be released, he was connected with a cold rape case in 1980,of a 15 year old girl.
But strangely the article I read said Rachel was coming from a party in Thame, nothing about a tanning bed.
And that she was hitchhiking to save on Taxi fare.
She probably promised her mother she would take a cab.
Watching 2024 5:39 am
They imply in the first case the murder being a planned or professional assassination but I wouldn’t be so sure. If that was the case the perpetrators could easily save the trouble of making a key and kill him in the street. That would probably be quicker and less likely to leave physical evidence or witnesses. By breaking in and killing John in his apt, there’s have been more likelihood of running into a neighbor or even having John come home with company
I would guess that more likely someone/s close to him set him up for a burglary expecting he’d have a large amount of cash in the apt. The burglar decided to kill after he was either startled unexpectedly by John or upon not discovering the cash decided to wait for John to demand it. After that he killed John to eliminate a witness
Stealing a key to someone’s apt, getting a copied made and then replacing it only to then just kill them is a little too Bond villainy and unbelievable. I’m sure similar capers have occured but it’s rare for street or criminal violence to play out like that
I see your point in that it'd be probably be less risky to shoot him when he entered his block, but the fact that the killer had a pistol with a silencer (the neighbours not hearing anything) suggests their mission was murder not burglary.
@@BillericayDickie007 Yes it was an assassination - and as the killer was never caught, their decision to ambush him inside his home was obviously a good one. There were no witnesses - and in 1987 very little CCTV. Police couldn't even pin point what time the victim arrive home and parked! Horrible that most of the murders featured here are unsolved.
Agreed, it says he was murdered due to his gambling debts, but I doubt we'll ever find out the truth, as the killer is probably by now...
Lynda Hunter Disappearance / Murder (Solved)
Daily Record 1 JULY 2012
ALL afternoon, the two sisters had talked. One had some marriage problems, but nothing serious. Or was it?
Watching her sister drive away, Sandra hoped it would all blow over. After all, Lynda had it all. A great job, good money and she'd just married her lover, Andrew.
Better still, she was pregnant. What more could she wish for?
But Lynda was having bad morning sickness and she and Andrew were arguing. Like that day, August 13, 1987, when Lynda travelled down from her home in Carnoustie to tell Sandra she was pregnant.
It should've been a celebration, but turned into a moan.
Andrew had been married before to another woman, Christine, who he met through the Salvation Army in his hometown of Paisley.
They had a son and, in 1977, moved to Broughty Ferry in Dundee, just across from where Lynda stayed with her partner, lecturer Dr Ian Glover.
Andrew had done voluntary work through the Salvation Army and now had a job in a children's home while studying part-time for a qualification in social work.
Lynda had been a Samaritan for years and was now qualified in social work with a good job.
She offered Andrew help with his studies - typical of the attractive 26-year-old woman's giving nature, her friends and family would say.
With Andrew and Lynda having so much in common, it was no surprise when their friendship turned into an affair. No surprise to anyone apart from Christine, Andrew's wife.
Andrew and Lynda had another shared interest that was their secret - for the moment. The devout Christian Salvationist and gentle, caring Samaritan both loved sex - torrid, passionate, adventurous love-making as often as they could.
Lynda moved out of her Broughty Ferry home and bought a house in Carnoustie, expecting Andrew to move in with her. It's not a step he took lightly, moving between Lynda and Christine, enjoying both in bed.
Hunter had also embarked on an another affair. Neither Christine nor Lynda knew this. Perhaps if they had there would be no story to tell.
Eventually settling in with Lynda, Hunter kept in regular contact with his son who lived with his mother.
One day shortly before Christmas 1984, Christine dropped the boy off at the children's home were Hunter worked. Finishing his shift, he took the lad to the cinema and then back to Broughty Ferry.
In spite of heavy knocks and shouting, there was no answer to the door. Hunter went to the house of Lynda's ex-lover, Dr Ian Glover, and, explaining, asked to use the phone to call Christine. No answer.
Visibly panicking and anxious, Hunter ran across the street to another neighbour who kept a spare key for Christine's house. By now accompanied by equally concerned neighbours, Hunter opened the door and strode in. There was Christine dangling from the loft hatch, hanging by her neck from a noose. Dead.
A depressed woman, unhappy at the failure of her marriage. The authorities easily and understandably accepted a verdict of death by suicide.
Tragic as Christine's death was, some might think that would have pushed Hunter and Lynda closer together. Quite the opposite.
Hunter became angry and resentful towards his partner and even resorted to assaulting her, often in public.
Every argument, fight and separation was followed by reconciliation and long sessions of passionate sex. Not that Hunter was going short.
During this time, he took up again with a gay lover he'd met back in Paisley while visiting a local sauna. If only the Salvation Army had known.
He also began to use working girls, becoming well known to almost every prostitute in Dundee. Not satisfied with that, he seduced a 22-year-old drug addict he'd met through his work. If only his social work bosses had known.
No one in authority knew about his sex games, of course.
During one of their happier periods, Lynda and Hunter decided to get married and some wedding it was on November 1, 1986.
They would honeymoon at posh Fernie Castle in Fife then on to Israel. But pride of place must have gone to the wedding album. Lynda looking beautiful and Hunter in Highland dress.
For a few months, everything between the couple was sweetness, light and passion. Then the old problems began to re-emerge. Hunter was back to the prostitutes and seeing a lot of his young junkie ex-client.
That's when Lynda announced she was pregnant. She was delighted, having always wanted babies. At first, so was Hunter - or so he said. Then it was back to his old ways. Worse, even, as if he resented the unborn child. That's when Lynda visited Sandra to break the good news, then share with her how bad her marriage was.
Sandra agreed to come up the following Friday, August 21, 1987. She arrived to be met by Hunter. No Lynda. According to Hunter, she'd gone off to her parents' house.
Maybe she'd forgotten her arrangement with Sandra? Hunter sat with his sister-in-law in the sunny garden, then drove to town where he took her for tea at a local hotel.
Still no Lynda. Sandra left about 7pm. She was worried. It wasn't like Lynda.
The next day, Andrew Hunter reported his wife missing, together with her car and her dog Shep. The cops had a mystery on their hands.
Within a day, they discovered that Lynda's white Vauxhall had been found the day before in Manchester, broken into and sitting on double yellow lines. The day she was meant to meet Sandra. Why Manchester? It didn't make sense.
Early on, they checked out Hunter, of course. But on the day Lynda went missing, he had been at work, was given a lift to and from a work's night out by a neighbour, had bought a pair of trainers in a Dundee shop the next day and gone to a meeting with his boss. It was a foolproof alibi. Or was it?
The cops started testing whether Hunter could have killed his wife, driven her car to Manchester and still had time to shop and work in Dundee. Answer: Yes.
Lynda Hunter's disappearance became the first Scottish case to feature on BBC's Crimewatch. It was a good move by the Tayside cops when new information flooded in, all pointing at Andrew Hunter.
Yet still they needed a body. Then a dog did them a favour. In a wood close to where the cops had searched, a dog walker found Lynda's body seven months after she had vanished. The cause of death was obvious - Shep's lead was still wound tightly around her neck.
When arresting Andrew Hunter for murder, the cops found him in the company of his junkie girlfriend.
Poor soul she was. A short while later, she died of a heroin overdose.
At the High Court in Dundee later in 1988, the Crimewatch appeal had generated so much interest people jostled for seats in the public gallery.
The Crown's case painted the whole story. Hunter had strangled Lynda and dumped her body in nearby woods.
He had gone to work then calmly come home to have tea with Sandra.
That night, he'd gone out with his colleagues and was driven home late. Instead of going to bed, he put on a long, blonde wig and drove to Manchester, deliberately parking on double yellow lines to attract the cops.
Catching a train home, he went straight out to buy the training shoes, keeping the timed and dated receipt, had a haircut and went about his business as usual.
Compelling as that was, there was one more thing. Shep's collar was found at his home.
Lynda never let the old dog go without that collar, fearing he'd get lost. It was proof Hunter was there when Lynda was killed. It was Shep's revenge. Hunter, the Salvationist, killed beautiful Samaritan, Lynda.
But what of Christine? Did she really hang herself? And his young junkie girlfriend? Hunter died of a heart attack in prison, in July 1993.
He was still a young man and in seeming good health. Vengeance is Mine, said the Lord.
'He was using prostitutes, having gay sex and had seduced a junkie client ...not that his social work bosses knew'
WOW! People often tell me to write a book.....I think you beat me too it.
Thank you......
I miss the 80s.
I don't

Well he is def dead now

Big mistake made, lynda hunter, no its sandra hunter..
I seriously don't no why they appealed for prostitute murders on CW as the general public have little empathy towards them and are never solved except Julie Dart even then that was connected to Michael Sams and also a hell of a lot of London murders on CW
Because prostitutes are human beings like everyone else dude🤦
@@IanP1963 agreed, maybe many people may object to their chosen profession (being one of the oldest professions going) but they were still human beings, still someone's wife, daughter, niece or sister, and still deserved to live their lives, nobody has the right to take their lives away from them....
How dare you say that every ones life matters prat
Look! Im not saying they deserved to die at all, I am talking about peoples perception of them especially a programme like CW, what I am saying is people would just say "so what! She was only a prozzie"
Just look at the Yorkshire Ripper murders no one gave a fuck about the first half dozen killings caus they were Prostitutes but soon as Jayen McDonald was killed the first "Innocent" victim then the public were and media were on it.
So please dont take what I say as I am glad they died but the fact that after all these years those prostitutes that were killed they still remain unsolved even after being on CW.
@@traceypace92 Did I say they deserved to die? NO! Read the comment before using insults. Fool.
Would be nice if you could explain how some solved murders took place and who it was.
You can google them by name if you wish.

What was his name? So I can find out information
@@colinofay7237 I don't know if this is the right case, but I have a feeling the murderer was in fact a high level Mexican diplomat or ambassador or something like that, and therefore had immunity from prosecution. I think it was this case but I'm not sure.

That was the murderer Ronald Cheshire.
He was caught 2 years later through DNA.
He was local and a policeman's son.
Lost all his hair in jail.

Wouldn't be surprised if Sydney Cooke john Duffy & john cannan have victims on this list.

Agreed. Barring a death bed confession, we'll probably never know how many women John Cannan murdered.
Think Sidney Cooke was in jail in 1987.
Does anyone know if the John Gaspa case is still unsolved
Yep
Articles say he was killed cos of gambling debts, but not if they got a killer. It was a lot of trouble to go to, so he must have known some dodgy folks. Why not just bash him over the head, when he was getting out of his car, or in the street? Very elaborate scheme just to kill someone. Too well thought out and professional.
@@treasurehunteruk9718 it seems to be someone close to him why how did they manage to get his key and rent rate
@@Maz-zb9uf These days there would be cameras in the key shop, but not then I suppose, but it still seems a lot of effort to go to, just to kill him. What if he had come back to his flat that night, and brought a friend with him? It was a risky way of doing it. Someone might have seen the killer come out of the flat and met them in the corridor/lift or whatever. There could have been witnesses. There must have been easier ways. Just bang him over the head or put a knife in him, in the street! No witnesses, cameras - job done.
@@treasurehunteruk9718 I'd guess that those elaborate measures weren't just to kill him but were to send out a "see what we can do" message to the rest of the underworld...
21:58 let’s hope you made sure his family was taken care of xx
Could Peter Tobin have abducted Rachel
Good question!
Sadly any and all things are possible 😔
The Rachel Partridge case was already solved.
Ronald Cheshire was convicted in 1989

1987 was a horrible year!
Britain had the highest rate of violent crime in Europe in the 80s. It shows.
@@th8257 I believe it and unemployment was high in the 80s!
@@th8257 Wonder why so many folks bothered to come and live here then! Because it is much better than a lot of other places ......., and you are the only one who KEEPS posting this useless piece of information!
It was a great year for music.
It was the 80's after all.
3/11 solved...jesus
Mind boggling - wonder why it was sooo difficult?
@@IanP1963 maybe a lack of CCTV, no real mobile phones with ability to capture images, DNA wasn't as far advanced as it is today, it makes you wonder if some of these murderous pair excuses for human life, are still alive today, may their victims rest in peace, and the families find some kind of solace, and maybe justice be done one future day.....
Update: two more of these cases have since been solved.
1) The Wendy Knell case was solved in 2021 with DNA evidence. It transpired that her murderer was the now notorious David Fuller, who was convicted of sexually abusing dead bodies in a hospital. He also killed another woman, Caroline Pierce.
2) The Shani Warren case was solved in 2022 because of DNA evidence. Robert Donaldson was convicted of her murder. The DNA evidence also convicted him of the 1981 kidnap and rape of a 16 year old girl in Slough.
Getting the dog possibly had him killed sorry to say...
The barking made them uneasy hence shit the dog which in turn sent the gentleman jewellery shop owner into a frenzy..
Otherwise would have been a stick up and they would have fled..
The acting on these crimewatch reconstructions is absolutely awful
Not always!
Dont watch then
They do try to get actors who look like the original victim, though, which I think really matters. Some American crime docs I have seen just have the actors talking in the background, and there is a narrator doing the voiceover, explaining what is happening, so you don't actually hear them speak.
