Summary

In December 1993, 25-year-old father of two Paul Logan was lured from his home in Consett, County Durham, by a mysterious late-night phone call. Hours later, his body was found in a frozen field on the outskirts of town - brutally beaten in what detectives described as a targeted and pre-planned attack.


Despite hundreds of witnesses interviewed, countless leads, and several arrests, no one has ever been charged with Paul’s murder. Rumours of underworld links, false accusations, and community silence have clouded the case for over thirty years, leaving Paul’s family still searching for the truth.


In this episode of British Murders, I revisit one of the North East’s most haunting unsolved cases - a crime that shocked a tight-knit community and continues to baffle detectives decades later.


If you have any information about the murder of Paul Logan, please contact Northumbria Police on 101, or reach out anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
