Welcome to Murder Mile.

A true crime podcast, an audio-guided walk,

featuring many of London's untold, unsolved, and long-forgotten murders,

all set within one square mile of the West End.

Today's episode is about Jacques Tratset, a strange and deluded man, who was so hell-bent on saving the world from tyranny and injustice, that he started by slaughtering

his family over a delightful meal. Murdomal contains grisly details which may unnerve the

easily perturbed, as well as realistic sounds, so that, no matter

where you listen to this podcast, you'll feel like you're actually there.

My name is Michael. I am your tour guide, and this is Murder Mile.

Episode 33, Jacques Adrian Tretsertzat, the Corner House Killer.

Today, I'm standing outside Tottenham Court Road tube station, exit one, on the northeast corner of Soho.

Once this was a moneyed mecca, for famished families, theatre tossers, and ferocious females, who would reduce whole stores to rubble, simply to snatch one of 76, pointlessly pretty, yet

fashionably painful pairs of almost identical black shoes. And yet now, it's a shit hole.

Surrounded by a non-stop slew of construction crews,

all digging holes, smoking siggies and flashing a stack of sweaty bum cracks.

This side of Soho has truly lost its identity.

Has been burdened by budget eateries, a billion buskers all playing hey-jude,

paths lined with zonked-out hobos having been booted out of Centrepoint homeless refuge,

so the tower block can be converted into new posh flats and the Dominium theatre which without any hint of irony

at all hosts Hillsong Church in the mornings all under a 100-foot banner for the evening's entertainment,

a musical of Meatloaf's Bat Out of Hell, featuring a gigantic, demonic image of a leather-clad

Satan, riding his hell-bound Harley straight into a fiery abyss.
