S8 Ep28: Monster On Match
Online dating is more massively popular than ever today, and the list of sites that you can join up in an attempt to find that special person who may be lacking from your life seems to constantly grow - Plenty Of Fish, Tinder, Grindr, Bumble to name just a few, and of course, Match.Com The drawback with these sites is, is that you never know who you could meet on there. And sometimes, as you'll hear with this account - you may find out too late that you have matched with the wrong person. The very wrong person. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving descriptions of a sexual nature, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

S8 Ep27: The Mudding Of The Somerset Gimp
Many areas around the UK have their own tales of a costumed resident - some are just harmless eccentrics, whilst others do it to send some goodwill out or to raise money for good causes. And then some, as the odd title of the episode will come to explain, and how the North Somerset area came to know from 2018 onwards, have a stranger reason - for the simple reason of instilling fear.

Continuing the story that must be every parent's nightmare - the abduction of a newborn baby, just five hours old, from a hospital in Nottingham in July 1994.

A tale of savagery from the late 1990's, and the UK county of Hampshire comes this time around, as we hear of the horrors committed by an individual that simply, selfishly and deludedly, could not take rejection.

Anybody can make the wrong choices in life, the same as anybody can at some point in theirs find themselves on a path that they couldn't have envisaged, through no control of their own.

S8 Ep22: The 40 Year Secret - Part 2
Concluding the tale begun last time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, which dealt with the horrific rape and murder of a young girl on a winter's night back in the North Wales town of Flint, in January 1976. It was a fast moving investigation back at the time, which quickly led to an arrest, charges, and ultimately, imprisonment. And that was it - or so it was thought. But four decades later, the case was heard once again before a court - because, had police caught the right killer at the time? Or, had the real killer long been roaming free?

S8 Ep21: The 40 Year Secret - Part 1
We head back to the January of 1976 this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, for a two part tale, a local one for me, that has tragedy and loss written all through it. It is a case that ultimately was to span four decades in total, with several twists and turns as you will hear throughout, and it all centred around a 15 year old girl named Janet.... I don't think it's a tale you will forget either.

S8 Ep20: Sins Of The Father
Your children - they may drive you mad at times, or may cause you despair and torment - but regardless, are accepted as being the most important thing in your life. Your creations that you protect, nurture, teach - and that, without doubt, you can never, ever envisage harm coming to - because you'd die yourself first. This time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, I bring two sad and disturbing examples of individuals, two fathers, who just didn't share this sentiment. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving children, involving injury detail, and with a reference to an instance of animal cruelty, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

Concluding the tale of tragic Marie Stewart, a devoted mum of two, and hard-working teaching assistant, whose biggest mistake in life was to try and share the world of an individual whose ego only allowed room for thoughts about one person in it - himself. Andrew Lindo. He pursued multiple affairs with other women, sometimes overlapping ones, all to satisfy his own selfish needs, and one evening in December 2010, when Marie threatened to bring his house of cards crashing down, committed the ultimate horrific act to ensure that she couldnt, before embarking on a remarkable, devious, course of deception to conceal his crime. As you will hear in this concluding part.

S8 Ep18: The Romeo - Part 1
Some people really do believe that they are the be all and end all to the opposite sex, and for some, they see this as their right to pursue gratification - regardless of scruples, guilt, or commitment - all to satisfy their own seld centred needs. Occasionally, some will stop at nothing to ensure that these selfish needs are met - even if it means committing the most abhorrent, and callous, of acts - as Part 1 of a two part tale from West Yorkshire in 2010 will show you.

S8 Ep15: One Wrong Move
WWE Superstars of the like such as John Cena, Roman Reigns, and Brock Lesnar are worshipped by many for the athleticism they display in the arena of sports entertainment, deservedly so for the many years they have spent perfecting their craft to ensure that what they deliver looks effective, and yet is safe to do whilst working with other equally trained professionals. Under no circumstances should any of their arsenal of moves be copied at home, for if the amateur does so, for whatever reason, sometimes, the consequences can be deadly. And sometimes, they can be fatal....

We go back to mid World War II for the accounts I have brought this time on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, for two tales of brutal murder that involve dances, soldiers, 3 sent letters, a detective novel, two debts that never were - and a seemingly ficticious character.

S8 Ep5: Collette
If you were a youngster back in the 1980's, then compared to today, you'll know just how much of a different world it was back then - when your days were carefree, kids had that much more freedom, and much less supervision. Of course, there has always been that threat there, it's not a new phenomenon, but when you're young, you know nothing but the good in the world. In a horrific tale this time around, one winter's day in 1986, one such child, six year old Collette Gallacher, walking to catch her school bus, came to realise that, there is evil too. Horrifically, in her last few moments on this earth.

S8 Ep3: The Kill List.
Dr David Birkett was an unassuming, quiet man, eminent in his fields of both Dermatology and Paleopathology, and well liked and respected by all who knew him. So when he answered a knock at his Middlesbrough door one night in February 1990, he couldn't for a second have considered that the figure stood before him meant him harm. Harm was an understatement. It was the first action of an individual who is one of the strangest - and certainly most dangerous - we have come across on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, and whose story I bring here. The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, including descriptions of injury detail and with reference to animal cruelty, that some listeners may find disturbing, and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

S8 Ep2: Poacher, Pet Man - Predator: Part 2
The concluding part of the Series 8 opening tale drops this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast - where last part, we heard of the tragic tale of 16 year old Leeds schoolgirl Leanne Tiernan, who disappeared without trace one November afternoon in 2000, and who was sadly found dead almost nine months later, 13 miles away from home. What police couldn't have foreseen that August day that Leanne was found, is that everything found with her - even including the site where she was left - would lead them to her killer. So, let me finish Leanne's tale - and so you can see what a monster we are dealing with here.

The first part of a two-part opening tale for Series 8 of The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast drops here, with the opening tale being one I have had part written for a couple of years now, and certainly one that affected me deeply - a tragic case, and a monstrously evil individual indeed. It's a bit more of a familiar tale to some this one is, but I present my take on it, and if it isn't one you're all too familiar with, I promise it's one you'll never forget. And it begins with a girl named Leanne.... It's good to be back.
