Summary

In 2024 I received a message from a listener's family, their much loved brother and uncle, 29-year-old Vincent Shaw was murdered in his own home in 1999 in Lewisham, London.

Since the year 2000, the family haven't heard a thing from the police and the murder hasn't been reported on since either. They feel Vincent has been forgotten.


Today, that changes.


This is Real.

But Shane's message was different. Shane was suggesting a case, a case that needed media retention,

an unsolved murder that had left a devastating mark on a family,

on Shane's family. But not only had the media neglected the case, so had the police.

Vincent Shaw's Unsolved Murder has only been discussed in the walls of Shane's

and a quarter of a century on?
