Summary

In this episode Laura deep dives the senior officer’s backgrounds leading the charge to identify this prolific serial killer and discovers some shocking and mind-blowing revelations. Laura deconstructs two high profile cases, the M62 bombing which resulted in then Detective Chief Superintendent George Oldfield being promoted to Assistant Chief Constable and Lesley Molseed’s sexual assault and murder whereby then Detective Sergeant Dick Holland was commended by the Judge. Their roles in the cases had catastrophic and wide-reaching consequences.

Hey lovely listeners and welcome back to Crime Analyst and the Intelligence Cell and the

0:13.4

Forgotten Victims.

0:16.2

Now before I get into this episode, which is arguably the most explosive yet, and trust

0:21.6
