The Tour Guide, The Cover-Up, and The Death of Lauren Bajorak
4d ago00:30:04Tap to summarizeHe was the man every study-abroad student wanted on their trip - charismatic, always around, always at the party. Manuel Blanco Vela ran a wildly popular tour company for American college students exploring Spain, Portugal, and Morocco. Parents thought their kids were in safe hands. They weren't.This episode follows Gabrielle, a 19 year old student who was drugged and sexually assaulted by her own tour guide on what was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime ... and who, years later, would open a Facebook message that changed everything: "Manuel Blanco Vela killed my daughter."That message came from Carrie, whose 21 year old daughter Lauren supposedly fell ten stories to her death from Manuel's apartment balcony in 2015 - on the same night he took two heavily intoxicated students home alone. Lauren's blood alcohol was nearly at coma level. Manuel's was 0. The case was closed with no charges. Carrie spent the rest of her life fighting for answers.We're unpacking the pattern - the champagne, the "safety" warnings that kept women isolated with him, the sangria nights, the blackouts - and how one survivor's spreadsheet, one viral post, and one TODAY show interview cracked open a case involving somewhere between 50 and 100 accusers across at least 3 countries.But here's what you need to know before you hit play: the man convicted of these crimes is not currently in prison. His appeal is still pending. He's out, passport surrendered, waiting on a ruling that could come any time in the next year - which means, right now, nobody actually knows how this ends.The Predator of Seville docuseries: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt40392206/Sign up for the free REDRUM newsletter, full of all things true crime, as well as a run down of all the latest REDRUM cases.

42 Years Later: The Anthony Littler Murder Case
1w ago00:22:41Tap to summarizeOn the 1st of May, 1984, 45 year old Anthony Littler stepped off the train at East Finchley Underground station after a night out with friends who shared his love of real ale. It should have been an ordinary walk home. Instead, minutes later, he lay dying on a dark footpath just meters from the station... attacked by two men lurking in the vegetation, armed with a rounders bat. What followed was a chillingly precise crime and an emergency call that made no sense.A young, "well spoken" caller rang for an ambulance and told the operator a man was hurt outside the station... then hung up. Police searched the area. They found nothing. By the time Anthony was discovered, it was too late. No robbery. No obvious motive. No forensic trail. Just a stranger murder that went cold for decades, buried under thousands of paper files, and a possible connection to another unsolved attack just two days earlier.Then, on the 29th anniversary of Anthony's death, a family secret finally cracked the case wide open... and a 2 minute gap in a decades-old timetable would become the key to it all.Sign up for the free REDRUM newsletter, full of all things true crime, as well as a run down of all the latest REDRUM cases.

She Filmed Him Dying... Then Asked, "Are You Having Fun?": Judy Church and Leroy Fowler
2w ago00:20:54Tap to summarizeIn November 2022, 55 year old Leroy Fowler was rushed to hospital after suddenly becoming violently ill inside the home he shared with his girlfriend, Judy Church. Doctors quickly discovered something deeply unusual: Leroy's kidneys were shutting down, his blood had become dangerously acidic, and tests revealed he had been poisoned with ethylene glycol... the toxic chemical found in antifreeze. As investigators searched the couple's home, they uncovered disturbing evidence, including an orange-stained sports drink bottle, handwritten journals filled with anger, voodoo dolls, and chilling phone videos recorded while Leroy lay suffering on the floor. Prosecutors alleged that what first appeared to be a tragic medical emergency was, in reality, a calculated act of murder.In this episode of REDRUM True Crime, we examine the evidence, the complicated love triangle, the shocking trial testimony, and the haunting video that became one of the prosecution's most powerful pieces of evidence. Did Leroy realise he was being poisoned before it was too late? And what did the jury see that convinced them this wasn't simply a tragic death, but a premeditated murder that would leave a family searching for answers forever?Sign up for the free REDRUM newsletter, full of all things true crime, as well as a run down of all the latest REDRUM cases.

The tragic accident that was actually a murder: Claire and Natasha Peernock
3w ago00:42:12Tap to summarizeIn July 1987, what appeared to be a horrific car crash on a quiet road in Sun Valley quickly became one of California's most shocking murder cases. Claire Peernock was found dead behind the wheel of her ex husbands wrecked Cadillac, while her 18 year old daughter, Natasha Peernock, survived with devastating injuries. But investigators soon discovered the collision had been carefully staged to hide a brutal, premeditated attack. In this episode of REDRUM True Crime, Grace Cordell uncovers the years of abuse that led to that night, the meticulous planning behind the crime, and the extraordinary courage of Natasha, whose memories would expose the truth. As detectives peeled back layer after layer of deception, they uncovered evidence so chilling it would ultimately destroy a killer's carefully constructed plan-but not before revealing just how far he was willing to go to get away with murder.Read the book here: https://www.abebooks.co.uk/9780440217909/Checklist-Murder-True-Story-Robert-0440217903/plpSign up for the free REDRUM newsletter, full of all things true crime, as well as a run down of all the latest REDRUM cases.

"I've killed him": The Search for Oakley Barnett
4w ago00:21:18Tap to summarizeIn November 2024, social workers, police, and the family court system were all focused on one vulnerable 14 month old boy: Oakley Barnett. His mother, Emma Barnett, had already lost care of her previous children, and a final court decision was about to determine whether Oakley would also be removed from her custody. What happened over the next few hours would end in one of the most devastating child murder cases in recent UK history.As officers searched desperately for Emma and Oakley across Essex, helicopters circled overhead and concerns grew that something had gone terribly wrong. But the truth was far closer than anyone realised. Hidden inside a barricaded loft space, Emma and Oakley were waiting. When police finally located them shortly after midnight, a single sentence changed everything and triggered a frantic rescue attempt that came too late to save a little boy whose entire future should still have been ahead of him.In this episode of REDRUM True Crime, Grace examines the murder of Oakley Barnett, the warning signs leading up to the tragedy, the role of social services and family court proceedings, the evidence presented at trial, and the questions that remain about whether intervention can ever move quickly enough when a crisis unfolds behind closed doors.As officers listened outside that loft hatch, they still believed Oakley was alive. Then Emma spoke one sentence that would instantly transform a missing child investigation into something far more horrifying...Sign up for the free REDRUM newsletter, full of all things true crime, as well as a run down of all the latest REDRUM cases.

Joyce Pelzer: The Secret That Unraveled Two Murders
Jun 2200:27:36Tap to summarizeIn September 2011, 35 year old Shawndell McLeod vanished without a trace after ending a turbulent relationship with her ex-girlfriend, Joyce Pelzer. Friends and family knew something was wrong almost immediately. Shawndell was devoted to her children, close with her loved ones, and had been making plans for the future. Then, suddenly, she was gone.For years, investigators searched for answers, but with no body, no crime scene, and little physical evidence, the case slowly grew cold. Shawndell's family was left waiting, wondering whether they would ever learn what happened to her.Then, in 2018, another woman entered Joyce Pelzer's life.When Joyce's wife, Rosalyn Lewis, was found brutally stabbed to death in a Georgia motel room, detectives began unraveling a web of lies, manipulation, jealousy, and violence that stretched back more than a decade.

“Because I Killed Him” | The Anne-Marie Burrowes Case
Jun 1800:19:42Tap to summarizeIn October 2023, a woman repeatedly called 999 with a chilling confession: she said she had killed someone.But there was a problem.She wouldn’t say who the victim was. She wouldn’t reveal exactly where the murder had happened. And despite calling emergency services multiple times over a period of weeks, police were left trying to piece together fragments of a story that barely made sense.The woman was 52 year old Anne-Marie Burrows.At first, officers had no body, no confirmed crime scene, and no clear way of knowing whether the calls were genuine, intoxicated ramblings or the confession of a real killer. But when Anne-Marie finally phoned police again and revealed the name of the victim - 56 year old Royal Navy veteran Paul Knowles - investigators would uncover a scene so violent that even seasoned professionals struggled with the brutality of what had happened inside a flat in Peterborough.Paul had served more than two decades in the Royal Navy, including during the Gulf War. He was a father, a brother, and someone described by loved ones as dependable, kind and deeply loved. So how did a night spent drinking with someone he considered a friend end in tragedy?Anne-Marie claimed she acted in self-defence. She said fear, trauma and panic drove what happened next. But as forensic evidence emerged and the full extent of Paul’s injuries was revealed in court, prosecutors argued something very different.In this episode of REDRUM, Grace takes you through the disturbing timeline of repeated 999 calls, the police bodycam footage of Anne-Marie’s arrest, the courtroom evidence not widely reported online, and the devastating impact left behind for Paul Knowles’ family.Because what police eventually discovered inside that flat at Farriers Court raised one deeply unsettling question…If this was self-defence - why did the evidence tell such a different story?
