Summary

Continuing the account of the terrible murder of 16 year old Lynn Siddons back in Derby in 1978 this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, and following the acquittal of Lynn's self-confessed killer, the Siddons' family were determined that Lynn would get justice - and her killer would face the full brunt of it.

You'll come to hear just how they went about it.

This episode contains descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, plus there is a reference contained within the episode to a racial slur and the use of a discriminatory term that some may find offensive. It is contained within solely as it forms an integral part of a statement in the overall story canon, is not meant to cause offence, and categorically does not reflect the views of either myself, or the show.

So discretion is advised whilst listening.
