Murder Predicted On Tape : Episode 516

#352 - Living with 'Cancer' (Laureline Garcia-Bertaux & Kirill Belorusov)

Back in 2019, the ground floor flat at 4 Darell Road in Kew was home to 34-year-old Laureline Garcia-Bertaux, a busy singleton working in the media who had big plans of being a creative success, and was striving to make it happen. She had a good job, a busy social life, she was liked, and she was popular. By the March, she was about to begin (what she believed or maybe hoped) was a fresh start by moving to a new flat. Yet, something was eating away at her, a sickness that pervaded her life, and a terminal disease which could never be cured, but this wasn’t a virus which festered within, it was all around her, and it had been for a decade. * Location: Ground Floor Flat, 4 Darell Road, Kew, Richmond, TW4 * Date: Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd of March 2019 * Victims: Laureline Garcia-Bertaux * Culprit: Kirill Belorusov Seven time nominated at the True Crime Awards, Independent Podcast Awards and the British Podcast Awards, Murder Mile is one of the best UK / British true crime podcasts covering only 20 square miles of West London.

John Christie and the Murders of 10 Rillington Place | Ep. 255

In March 1953, a tenant in a run-down Notting Hill house tapped on a section of wallpaper and noticed a hollow sound coming from behind it. Curious, he peeled the paper back and made a horrifying discovery. Hidden inside a small kitchen alcove was the body of a woman. When police arrived, they found two more bodies concealed alongside her. Further searches uncovered human remains beneath floorboards and buried in the garden. The house was 10 Rillington Place. Its quiet, softly spoken ground-floor tenant was a 53-year-old former police reserve officer named John Christie. What followed shocked the UK to its core. Christie would confess to a series of murders spanning a decade, targeting vulnerable women and concealing their bodies within the cramped terraced property. Yet the most disturbing revelation was still to come. Just three years earlier, Christie's neighbour, Timothy Evans, had been hanged for the murder of his baby daughter after Christie gave evidence against him at the trial. Now, investigators were forced to confront the possibility that the real killer had been living downstairs all along. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the life and crimes of John Christie, from his troubled upbringing in Halifax and his move to London, to the murders committed at 10 Rillington Place between 1943 and 1953. We explore the lives of his victims, Ruth Fuerst, Muriel Eady, Beryl and Geraldine Evans, Ethel Christie, Rita Nelson, Kathleen Maloney and Hectorina MacLennan, and look at how Christie manipulated, deceived and ultimately murdered those who crossed his path. We also examine the investigation that led to his arrest, his confessions, trial and execution, along with the devastating miscarriage of justice that saw Timothy Evans sent to the gallows for crimes he almost certainly did not commit. Finally, we look at the decades-long fight to clear Timothy's name, and how the case became one of the most influential factors in the eventual abolition of the death penalty in the UK. This is the story of a serial killer who hid in plain sight, the innocent man who paid the ultimate price for his crimes, and the case that changed British justice forever.

A Stranger in the Dark: The Murder of Amie Gray | Ep. 254

Two friends sit beside a small fire on a quiet Bournemouth beach under the light of a full moon in May 2024. Amie Gray and Leanne Miles are enjoying a peaceful Friday night catch-up, away from the crowds and noise of the nearby town. Within minutes, that calm is shattered when a stranger emerges from the darkness and launches a frenzied knife attack. Amie is killed at the scene. Leanne survives despite suffering catastrophic injuries. Neither woman had ever met their attacker before. As Dorset Police begin investigating what appears to be a completely random act of violence, detectives uncover a deeply disturbing trail of evidence stretching from Bournemouth to south London. CCTV footage, internet searches and travel records reveal that the attack was anything but spontaneous. Instead, investigators discover a young criminology student who had spent weeks researching murder investigations, CCTV coverage, forensic evidence, knives, and beaches across southern England before travelling more than 100 miles to carry out his plan. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the murder of Amie Gray and the attempted murder of Leanne Miles. From Amie's life as a devoted wife, mum, coach and much-loved friend, to the terrifying events on Durley Chine Beach and the painstaking investigation that followed, we explore a case that shocked the nation and left a community searching for answers. We also examine the evidence presented at Winchester Crown Court, the psychological assessment of killer Nasen Saadi, his fascination with violent offenders, and the role that incel ideology was said to have played in the development of his worldview. This is a tragic case involving obsession, misogyny, meticulous planning, and the senseless murder of a woman whose family and friends continue to honour her memory through fundraising and acts of remembrance long after her death.
