episode Should I Marry a Murderer? The Tony Parsons Case cover

Description

On 29 September 2017, retired Royal Navy veteran and cancer survivor Tony Parsons set out on a 104-mile charity bike ride through the Scottish Highlands. He stopped at the Bridge of Orchy Hotel for a coffee just before midnight, then cycled into the darkness. He was never seen alive again. For more than three years, Tony's family searched for answers as the case grew cold. Then in 2020, a Glasgow pathologist named Caroline Muirhead became engaged to a charming Highland gamekeeper, only for him to confess a devastating secret on a quiet country road. What she did next would expose one of Scotland's most haunting hit and run cover-ups, lead to the discovery of Tony's body marked by a crushed Red Bull can, and reveal the terrifying truth that he had been left alive on the roadside to die alone.

From the Vault - No one admits to a crime they didn't do

In 1996, 18-year-old Angie Dodge was brutally murdered in her Idaho Falls apartment. Police were desperate for answers — and soon turned their attention to a young man named Christopher Tapp. What followed would become one of America’s most controversial wrongful conviction cases. Despite no physical evidence linking him to the crime, Christopher Tapp was convicted after hours of intense police interrogation and a confession many believe was coerced. For more than two decades, Tapp maintained his innocence while serving time for a murder he said he did not commit. But the story didn’t end there. As DNA technology advanced and fresh eyes revisited the case, disturbing questions began to emerge about the investigation, the interrogation tactics used, and whether police had convicted the wrong man while Angie Dodge’s real killer remained free. In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we examine the tragic murder of Angie Dodge, the interrogation that changed Christopher Tapp’s life forever, and the long fight that would ultimately unravel one of Idaho’s most debated wrongful conviction cases. This is the story of Christopher Tapp. Get early and ad free access to Crime at Bedtime and One Minute Remaining for as little as $1.61 a week!  Become a Patreon or Apple + subscriber now for ealry and ad free access from as little as $1.69 a week.

From the Vault - The Man Who Faked His Death

In 2002, former prison officer John Darwin was presumed dead after vanishing while canoeing off the coast of Seaton Carew. His broken canoe was found. His wife mourned publicly. His sons believed he was gone forever. But John Darwin wasn’t dead — he was living in secret, just metres from his old life. This is the extraordinary true story of how a man faked his death to escape debt, lied to his family, and fooled the world… until a single photograph shattered the illusion. Tonight on Crime at Bedtime, we explore one of the UK’s most bizarre fraud cases — a tale of deception, survival, and a very public downfall. If you're looking for a twisty story that won’t keep you up with nightmares but will leave you shaking your head — this one’s for you.

From the Vault - The Pig Farm Murders

Hello legends, Jack here, host of Crime at Bedtime. I'm currently travelling to the US because my other show, One Minute Remaining, was lucky enough to be nominated for an award. I’ll be back very soon, but while I’m away, I’m diving into the vault to bring you some of my favourite and most terrifying Crime at Bedtime stories from the past three years. One of my favourite movies of all time is Snatch — a brilliant UK crime comedy. In that film, there’s a character called Brick Top, and he says you should never trust a man who keeps pigs. Why? Well… today’s episode from the vault explains it perfectly. In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we uncover the terrifying story of Robert Pickton—a pig farmer turned serial killer responsible for one of Canada’s darkest chapters. For years, women disappeared from Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside without a trace. What police eventually discovered on Pickton’s farm would shock the nation and haunt investigators forever.

From the Vault - Sin City Shadows

Hello legends, Jack here, host of Crime at Bedtime. I'm currently travelling to the US because my other show, One Minute Remaining, was lucky enough to be nominated for an award. I’ll be back very soon, but while I’m away, I’m diving into the vault to bring you some of my favourite and most terrifying Crime at Bedtime stories from the past three years. While travelling through the US, I’ll be in Vegas for the very first time, which is what made me choose today’s episode from the vault. It tells the story of a murder in Vegas which police initially believed to be just another senseless act of violence… until they started digging further. When a gunman opened fire at a Teriyaki Madness restaurant in the heart of Las Vegas, it seemed like another act of senseless violence. But as investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a tangled web of betrayal, greed, and a plot allegedly orchestrated by a local gangsta. In this episode of Crime at Bedtime, we unravel the story of a deadly deal gone wrong and the secrets lurking behind the neon glow of Sin City.

Introducing - The Just Sleep Podcast

"The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton" is a Sherlock Holmes short story by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, first published in 1904, featuring Holmes's confrontation with a ruthless blackmailer who preys on the secrets of the wealthy, forcing Holmes to go outside the law to retrieve compromising letters for a client, Lady Eva Blackwell, and ultimately leading to Milverton's death, which Holmes witnesses but does not prevent, as the blackmailer is beyond the law's reach. The story is notable for its depiction of Milverton as "the worst man in London" and for showing Holmes operating in a morally gray area, even becoming engaged to a housemaid to gain access to Milverton's home. Blackmail! Disguises! Murder! Another adventure with Sherlock Holmes and Watson. \ This is the Just Sleep Podcast, if you like this episode you can get more right now just search The Just Sleep Podcast wherever you get your podcasts from or click here for apple [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/just-sleep-bedtime-stories-for-adults/id1555756767] or here for spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/0zJ9ZaP49xQ85FbKcSFfey?si=fd4e3dc5d0e040c1] Become a Patreon or Apple + subscriber now for ealry and ad free access from as little as $1.69 a week.
