In 2002 13 year old Milly Dowler vanished from a bus stop on her way home from school; this sparked one of the nation’s biggest investigations, but sadly her remains were found 6 months later. Over the next few years, one by one more women started being attacked across South London. The MO was often different, the vehicle was always different, but the police were convinced that they had a serial killer on their hands...

On 12 March 2004, police walked into an office building in Fresno, California and found the bodies of 9 women and children; they had each been shot once in the eye. It was discovered that all of the victims shared the same biological father, a man named Marcus Wesson - but this man was also all of their “husbands”. This shocking find unravelled a twisted tale of incest, abuse, rape and vampires...

In 2015, self-proclaimed Nazi - Lindsay Souvannarath and her murderous bae, James Gamble plotted to commit a Valentine's Day mass shooting at a mall in Nova Scotia. Thankfully their plan failed. But to understand what led these two "lovebirds" on a sadistic path of rage and murder, we need to explore the dark world of online radicalisation, white supremacy, esoteric Hilterism and teen Tumblr romance... Expect a lot of cock swastikas, meme chat and race hate.

When 18 year old, Peter, woke up in a mystery flat after a night out he was scared. It was then with horror that he realised he couldn't move his arms, and a strange man was sexually assaulting him... That man was Reynhard Sinaga; and thanks to Peter, in January 2020, Sinaga was finally convicted of 159 sexual offences, including 136 counts of rape.  For years he'd been preying on the men of Manchester, England - attacking with impunity and going totally undetected thanks in large part to his innocent looks, and the copious amounts of GHB that he plied his victims with. This week we uncover the man behind the mugshot.

When 18 year old Conrad Roy was found dead in his truck it looked like an obvious suicide. But as detectives started their investigation it soon became clear that this was anything but obvious. Conrad and his 17 year old online girlfriend, Michelle Carter, had exchanged a series of troubling messages in the lead up to his death. Ones in which Michelle seemingly encouraged Conrad to kill himself. Today RedHanded asks the question - did Michelle Carter cause Roy Conrad’s suicide, or was it a tragic perfect storm based on teenager’s romantic fantasy?

When 8 month old Matthew Eappen was admitted to hospital with signs of a severe head trauma, and died just days later of his injuries, doctors and police suspected abuse.  Louise Woodward, Matthew’s 18 year old British au pair, was quickly arrested and tried for his murder; and although she denied ever hurting the baby, many experts seriously doubted her story.  With the medical evidence pointing in every direction, in this week’s episode Suruthi and Hannah put shaken baby syndrome and the case of Louise Woodward under the microscope...

When 14 year old Ana Kriégel was found in an old, abandoned Manor House in Lucan, Dublin the sheer brutality of her murder horrified a nation.  But the revelation that the perpetrators of this incredibly violent, sexually-motivated crime were themselves kids - even younger than Ana - raised dark questions about guilt, innocence and the idea of dangerous children.  References: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/crime-and-law/courts/criminal-court/ana-kriegel-murder-boy-a-sentenced-to-life-boy-b-sentenced-to-15-years-1.4072944 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7D4jygfJTY https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/northern-ireland/boy-convicted-of-ana-kriegel-murder-incredibly-sorry-38642533.html https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/breaking-ana-kriegel-murder-boy-20815532 https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/ireland/ana-kriegel-verdict-the-evidence-the-jury-did-not-hear-931435.html https://www.thesun.ie/news/4876479/ana-kriegel-hellhole-house-renovations-demands-demolish/ https://edition.cnn.com/20

Jeremy Bamber is currently 35 years into of a whole of life sentence for murdering 5 members of his own family. To this day he claims to be innocent, and on 6 December 2019 Bamber launched a high court challenge to the Crown Prosecution accusing them of failing to disclose material evidence that undermines the safety of his 1986 conviction.

The 6th of December 2019 marks the 30 year anniversary of the Montreal massacre, a dark day in Canadian history. It was the day that gunman Marc Lépine walked into an engineering school and shot dead 14 female students.  As he shot the women, he exclaimed that he hated feminists, and that feminists had ruined his life. This sentiment was backed up in his manifesto. A manifesto that shares a great number of themes with that of Isla Vista killer Elliot Roger, or the motivations the 2018 Toronto van killer, Alek Minnassian. But with the continued glorification and martyrdom of the likes of Lépine, Rodger and Minassian - how far have we really come?

In February 2019 in The District Court of New South Wales a woman named Jeni Haynes entered the witness box - but she wasn't alone. 6 different personalities spoke that day through Jeni's body; in a landmark case that saw a person with DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder, formerly referred to as Multiple Personality Disorder) testify in her many alters, and secure a conviction. This week the ladies cover this truly inspirational story. Jeni's DID came from the abuse that she had suffered as a child at the hands of her father, Jeni's mind split into over 2000 “self-states” or personalities. These alters were there to protect Jeni - and to this day she is adamant that her DID saved her soul.
