The Christmas Day Murder of Hannah Smith | Ep. 253

A 63-year-old grandmother spends Christmas Day 2009 exactly as she always did, relaxing at home in her fourth-floor flat in Cranhill, Glasgow, watching television and looking forward to seeing her beloved granddaughters later that evening. When Hannah Smith fails to answer her door, her family assume she has simply fallen asleep. But as Christmas turns into Boxing Day and beyond, concern quickly grows. When police finally force entry into Hannah’s home, they discover a scene so horrific that experienced officers are left shocked. At first, suspicion falls on a neighbour who had been pestering Hannah for a relationship she clearly did not want. The pair had recently fallen out, and family members feared he may have had a motive. But as detectives from Strathclyde Police begin piecing together Hannah’s final hours, a different suspect emerges. Their investigation uncovers a tragic connection stretching back years, to the death of Hannah’s daughter and a woman whom Hannah had repeatedly tried to help despite believing she was partly responsible for her family’s heartbreak. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the murder of Hannah Smith and the shocking events that unfolded on Christmas Day 2009. From Hannah’s upbringing in Glasgow’s east end and her close-knit family life, to the devastating loss of her daughter Tracy and the struggles that followed, we explore the circumstances that led to one of Scotland’s most shocking Christmas murders. We also examine the police investigation, the forensic evidence that identified Hannah’s killer, the witness testimony that helped detectives build their case, and the court proceedings that revealed the horrifying extent of the violence inflicted upon her. This is a deeply tragic true crime story involving betrayal, addiction, grief, and the murder of a kind-hearted woman who opened her door to someone she knew and trusted.

#350 - Undressing Jack the Stripper - Part D of D (Hammersmith Nudes; Margaret McGowan & Bridget O'Hara)

This is Part D of D of Undressing Jack the Stripper, an eight part series made in conjunction with the True Crime Enthusiast [https://thetruecrimeenthusiast.co.uk/] podcast. From the late 1950s to the mid-1960s, the bodies of eight sex-workers (Elizabeth Figg, Gwynneth Rees, Hannah Tailford, Irene Lockwood, Helen Barthelemy, Mary Fleming, Margaret McGowan and Bridget O’Hara) were found dumped in or near the River Thames in West London. Panic spread that a sadistic serial killer was on the loose who targeted young petite brunettes; stripped and strangled them, dumped each body within weeks and streets of each other. Yet with not a single witness to his crimes, even though several suspects have since been named, with no convictions, it’s a series of killing which remains a mystery to this day. After the success of their ten-part series, Psychopath: Two Side of Patrick MacKay, Mike at Murder Mile and Paul at the True Crime Enthusiast join forces once again to bring you an eight-part crossover series about one of Britain’s most infamous unsolved serial killing – Jack the Stripper.
