#355 - The UK's Penultimate School Shooting (Higham Ferrers, Northants)
Jul 201:06:36Tap to summarizeOn Wednesday 8th of January 1988, at 3:25pm, expelled pupil 16-year-old Darren Fowler entered the Ferrers School in the town of Higham Ferrers with two knives, 25 cartridges and a shotgun. He had written a suicide note, and planned to get revenge on those who had wronged him. By 3:37pm, it was over. But unlike the Dunblane massacre, it is largely forgotten, and why, like the Dormers Wells school shooting did it not lead for stricter gun control? This was the UK’s penultimate school shooting.Location: Ferrers School, Queensway, Higham Ferrers, Northamptonshire, Date: Wednesday 8th of January 1988, 3:29pm to 3:37pmVictims: Ronnie Sherratt, Simon Druce, Jane Lucas, Michael CousinsCulprit: Darren FowlerSeven 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.

A Week of Fear Across the North East: The Raoul Moat Manhunt | Ep. 259
Jul 100:37:28Tap to summarizeIn July 2010, the North East of England became the focus of one of the largest and most extraordinary police manhunts in modern British history. What began with a violent attack linked to the breakdown of a relationship quickly escalated into a nationwide search involving armed officers, helicopters, police dogs and roadblocks, as an armed fugitive evaded capture for almost a week. Millions followed the unfolding events live on television, with each new development leaving communities across Northumberland and Tyne and Wear wondering where he would strike next.At the centre of the case was 37-year-old Raoul Moat, a former nightclub doorman and tree surgeon from Newcastle upon Tyne. In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the events that led to the 2010 Raoul Moat manhunt, exploring his troubled upbringing, his abusive relationship with Samantha Stobbart, and the chain of decisions that culminated in one of the UK's most infamous criminal investigations. Along the way, we remember the innocent people whose lives were forever changed, including Chris Brown and PC David Rathband.We also look at the unprecedented police operation that unfolded across the North East, the role played by Moat's accomplices Karl Ness and Qhuram Awan, the bizarre appearance of Paul Gascoigne during the final siege, the public reaction that followed, and the lasting legacy of a case that continues to be discussed more than a decade later. Rather than focusing solely on the man at the centre of the headlines, this episode remembers the victims, examines the wider impact of domestic abuse, and reflects on how a story that is often reduced to internet memes left real families carrying unimaginable loss.Exclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.

The football-mad teenager, who was recovering from a broken foot and relying on crutches, was especially vulnerable when he was ambushed and fatally struck with a blunt object.For years, his murder remained one of the North East's most enduring unsolved cases.

Kavanagh strangled Dixon with his own tie, stole 34 10s from his pockets, went shopping, and confessed to his murder.

Jun 2400:37:08Tap to summarizeIn February 2018, 47-year-old Julie Reilly was captured on CCTV inside an Aldi supermarket on Paisley Road West in Glasgow. Originally from Auchinleck in East Ayrshire, Julie had spent years rebuilding her life after enduring unimaginable personal tragedy, battling addiction and recovering from a serious brain injury that left her vulnerable. A devoted mother of four and grandmother, she was determined to live independently and remained a familiar face throughout Glasgow's south side. When she suddenly stopped attending medical appointments and vanished without explanation, her family knew something wasn't right.As concern grew, Police Scotland launched a missing persons investigation spanning Govan, Cardonald and the wider Glasgow area. Detectives examined CCTV footage, followed reported sightings and appealed directly to the public for information, while Julie's family desperately searched for answers. What initially appeared to be a routine missing person enquiry soon became far more troubling, leading investigators down a path that exposed a disturbing betrayal of trust and one of the most shocking murder cases Scotland had seen in recent years.In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the murder of Julie Reilly and the investigation that followed her disappearance. We explore Julie's difficult but resilient life story, the growing concerns that led to her being reported missing, the extensive search efforts across Glasgow, the forensic breakthroughs that transformed the enquiry, and the man who would ultimately admit responsibility for her death. We also look at the impact Julie's murder had on her family, their determination to bring her home, and the remarkable detective work that finally provided the answers they had spent more than a year searching for.Exclusive content:Patreon - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive EpisodesFollow the show:British Murders with Stuart BluesDisclaimer:The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.
