The Emerald Girls - Ireland’s Missing Women

When cold cases are looked at, many officers believe the name of the culprit is already held within the paperwork. Time can restrict an investigation as people move away, forget details or pass away. But it also works in the other way, that loyalties change, people lose the fear of being found out or their conscience finally gets to them and new information is given.  Between 1993 and 1998, six women disappeared under mysterious circumstances within a geographical area now referred to as the Vanishing Triangle:Annie McCarrick (1993): An American student living in Dublin, Annie was last seen boarding a bus to Enniskerry. Despite extensive searches, no trace of her has been found. Fiona Pender (1996): A 25-year-old pregnant woman from Tullamore, Fiona disappeared without a trace. Ciara Breen (1997): A 17-year-old from Dundalk, Ciara vanished after sneaking out of her home one night. Fiona Sinnott (1998): Fiona was last seen leaving a pub in County Wexford. Despite ongoing searches, her case remains unsolved. Jo Jo Dullard (1995): Disappeared while hitchhiking home to Kilkenny from Dublin. Her last known contact was a phone call made from a phone box in Moone, County Kildare. Deirdre Jacob (1998): A 19-year-old college student from Newbridge, Deirdre vanished within sight of her family.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/deborah-hatswell-aka-tinkergirl--2840337/support [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/deborah-hatswell-aka-tinkergirl--2840337/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss].

The Salford Murders - The Heavy Bag Killer Case and More

In the spring of 2024, the town of Salford again found itself at the centre of a nightmare when parts of a human body started turning up all over the city. This including an abandoned bunker, the banks of a quiet reservoir, and multiple parks. However, the only clue they would find was from grainy surveillance footage of a lone man carrying heavy shopping bags through quiet streets. That is when they gave this killer the nickname heavy bagman. https://www.gmp.police.uk/news/greater-manchester/news/news/2025/march/man-jailed-for-life-after-murdering-stuart-everett/ [https://www.gmp.police.uk/news/greater-manchester/news/news/2025/march/man-jailed-for-life-after-murdering-stuart-everett/] On Christmas morning of 1991, a dog walker was strolling through a densely forested area off the side of the M61 motorway known as Linnyshaw Moss, in Walkden when he spotted something horrific: a man’s leg, which was partially wrapped in a black rubbish bag and sticking out of the thick undergrowth.When police the arrived and began scouring the area, they discovered a shallow grave nearby that contained another leg and a severed head.  https://www.nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/cases/case-06-025956 [https://www.nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk/cases/case-06-025956] Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/deborah-hatswell-aka-tinkergirl--2840337/support [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/deborah-hatswell-aka-tinkergirl--2840337/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss].

I first became aware of the cases of Baby Victoria and Baby Ava as both cases happened just a few steps away from my home on the edge of Farnworth. The two cases are very different at first, both centring on the death of a new born child.

Family's That Flee From Haunted Homes, Ghosts, Hunchbacks & Vampires

Many people report terrifying encounters with Paranormal Beings as they go about their daily business and due to popular culture they are probably going to see it as negative, aggressive or in some cases Demonic. I like to put an end to the Satanic Panic by understand that many of these Beings are also just going about their daily business as they did when they were alive.
