  • Sunday Night Mystery Episode 39, A Pettern of Deceit, The Murder of Jo Ramsden
    Nov 24 2024

    The case of Jo Ramsden, detailed in Sunday Night Mystery Episode 37, centers around the tragic disappearance and murder of a vulnerable woman in 1991. Jo, who had the mental age of a 10-year-old, vanished from her home in Dorset, and her body was discovered nearly a year later in a remote woodland area. Witnesses reported seeing Jo with a man wearing a distinctive zig-zag patterned jumper, who became known as "Mr. Zig Zag."

    A key suspect was a retired psychiatric nursing assistant with a history of crimes against vulnerable women, but despite his past confessions and mounting suspicion, there was insufficient evidence to charge him with Jo’s murder. The investigation raised questions about missed opportunities, the role of local knowledge in concealing her body, and whether advances in forensic science could shed new light on the case.

    The case remains unsolved, leaving a community and family grappling with uncertainty and unanswered questions. The episode explores the complexities of investigating crimes involving vulnerable individuals, the dangers posed by predators in plain sight, and the lingering hope for justice.

    This episode underscores the enduring quest for answers and the shadows of uncertainty surrounding unsolved mysteries.

    Brett ends the episode by reminding listeners of the importance of seeking justice for those lost to such tragic circumstances, and encouraging anyone with information to come forward.

  • Breaking News - Has Louise Dunn's Murder been solved?? Suspect Arrested.
    Nov 20 2024

    Breaking News: Arrest in 1967 Bristol Murder Case

    In a stunning development, police have arrested a suspect in connection with the 1967 murder of 74-year-old widow Louise Dunne. Found raped and strangled in her Easton, Bristol, home, Louise’s tragic death shocked the local community and left investigators baffled for decades. Despite an extensive investigation that included gathering thousands of palm prints and numerous witness accounts, the case had remained unsolved—until now.

    A breakthrough in the decades-long cold case was made following a recent tip-off, leading authorities to make an arrest in connection with the brutal crime. The arrest comes after years of tireless efforts to identify the person responsible for this heinous act, which had left a scar on the fabric of this tight-knit Bristol community.

    Louise, once a socialite and wife of a prominent city alderman, had become reclusive following the deaths of her two husbands. Her murder, found by a neighbor after an open window raised suspicion, sent shockwaves through Easton. Despite several leads, including reports of a suspicious man near her home the night before her death, the killer had eluded justice – until now. The arrest brings a new sense of hope that after nearly six decades, Louise’s killer may finally be brought to justice.

    Stay tuned as more details unfold.

  • Sunday Night Mystery Episode 38, The Chapel Amble Enigma: The Unsolved Murder of Les Bate
    Nov 17 2024

    This episode of Sunday Night Mystery explores the unsolved murder of 71-year-old Les Bate in the peaceful village of Chapel Amble, North Cornwall, in 2002. Known for its lack of violent crime for centuries, the village was shaken by Les's brutal killing, which remains a mystery to this day.

    Les, a self-made millionaire and a regular at the local pub, the Maltsters Arms, lived a quiet life on his farm after the death of his wife. On a Friday night in April 2002, he left the pub for his home, only to be found dead two days later by his son, Martin. His death was the result of a sustained beating, with injuries suggesting a violent and deliberate attack. Despite a thorough investigation and an inquest a decade later, the motive and identity of the killer remain unknown.

    Theories range from robbery—Les had been burgled seven months prior—to a personal vendetta, possibly tied to his abrasive personality and conflicts in the community. There was no forced entry, leading to speculation that the killer was someone Les trusted or someone familiar with his routine. Evidence, such as fibers found on his clothing, provided limited leads, and advances in DNA technology have yet to yield breakthroughs.

    The case has left both Les's family and the village grappling with the possibility that the killer might still live among them. Despite the passage of time, Les's daughter Kathy holds onto hope for justice, while the case serves as a chilling reminder that even the most tranquil communities can harbor dark secrets.

    This episode underscores the enduring quest for answers and the shadows of uncertainty surrounding unsolved mysteries.

  • Sunday Night Mystery Episode 37, Secrets on Shorrolds Road: The Enigma of Suzy Lamplugh
    Nov 10 2024

    In tonight's episode of Sunday Night Mystery, Brett explores the case of Suzy Lamplugh.

    Suzy Lamplugh, a young and ambitious estate agent, disappeared in 1986 after a scheduled meeting with a mysterious client known only as "Mr. Kipper." Suzy was last seen outside a property in Fulham, London, with a man who appeared suspiciously involved in her disappearance. Later that day, her car was found abandoned with her purse inside, but crucial items like her keys were missing, suggesting foul play.

    Several witnesses observed Suzy with a man fitting the description of a convicted rapist and murderer, John Cannan, who soon emerged as a prime suspect due to his similar appearance to the identikit sketch and his history of violence toward women. Cannan had been released on day leave from prison near the time of her disappearance and reportedly frequented the same bars as Suzy, further fueling suspicion. Yet, despite extensive investigations, no definitive evidence has linked him to the crime.

    Years later, Cannan was convicted of a separate murder and remains imprisoned. He has denied involvement in Suzy’s disappearance, though he has hinted he may one day reveal more about her case. The mystery around "Mr. Kipper," Suzy's last hours, and Cannan's involvement has left Suzy’s family and the public haunted by questions and longing for answers.

  • Sunday Night Mystery Episode 34, Vanished Without a Trace: The Mysterious Disappearance of Ann Myring
    Oct 20 2024

    In tonight's episode of Sunday Night Mystery, Brett explores the tragic case of Ann Myring. The disappearance of Ann Myring in 1997 remains a baffling and unresolved case. Ann, a clerical worker from Bristol, vanished after leaving work on June 25, 1997. Her car was found at her home, and her husband initially claimed she had gone to a health farm, but later said she had left him. Ann’s family, especially her mother, was adamant that she would never leave without a word, particularly given her devotion to her children and her ailing mother.

    Ann's husband, Brian, was later arrested, along with his lover, Teresa Kempster. While Teresa was released, Brian was charged with murder. He denied the charges, and after a three-week trial, he was acquitted due to lack of forensic evidence. Despite his acquittal, suspicion continued to follow him, leaving him isolated from the community.

    The police investigation revealed few leads, and although Ann left behind personal items and her family strongly believed she wouldn’t voluntarily disappear, no concrete evidence of foul play emerged. Theories ranged from her having committed suicide due to her husband’s affair to the possibility that she started a new life, but none of these have been confirmed. Ann's sons, Stephen and David, have never stopped searching for answers, clinging to hope that she might still be alive. However, to this day, her fate remains a mystery.

    Brett ends the episode by reminding listeners of the importance of seeking justice for those lost to such tragic circumstances, and encouraging anyone with information to come forward.

  • Sunday Night Mystery Episode 33, Broken Promises: The Unsolved Fate of Asha Bostan
    Oct 13 2024

    In this episode of Sunday Night Mystery, Brett revisits the unsolved case of Asha Bostan, a 22-year-old part-time model from Bristol who disappeared in 1978. Asha was preparing for her sister's wedding but mysteriously vanished after a night out with a business client. Fourteen years later, her remains were discovered in a shallow grave in the Mendip Hills.

    A prime suspect from the beginning was Yasuo Soma, Asha's obsessive boyfriend, who was the last person to see her alive. Despite suspicious behavior, including fresh scratches on his face after her disappearance, no charges were ever brought against him. Soma tragically committed suicide in 1985, leaving many unanswered questions.

    Though Asha's death was ruled as unlawful killing, the lack of concrete evidence meant her case remained unresolved. Former detective Brian Theobald remained convinced that Soma was responsible for Asha's murder, but the case is still open, with authorities hoping for new leads to bring closure to her family.

    Brett ends the episode by reminding listeners of the importance of seeking justice for those lost to such tragic circumstances, and encouraging anyone with information to come forward.
