S13 Ep8: The Brutal Murder of Lin and Megan Russell

This is one of Britain’s most harrowing true crime stories – a crime so savage it shocked the nation to its core. In this gripping episode of Blood Ties, Geoffrey and Molly Wansell dissect the chilling case of Lin and Megan Russell, a mother and daughter brutally murdered in a frenzied hammer attack while walking home from school in a quiet Kent village. Their family dog was killed, their daughter Josie left for dead – but miraculously survived. What followed was a tangled investigation and years of doubt that exposed the frailties of the justice system. We unravel how such evil could invade such innocence, and ask the question: did the system truly deliver justice?CREDITS: Presenters: Geoffrey and Molly WansellProducer: Peter Shevlin https://pod60.com/Artwork: George LeighMusic: Dan WansellCONTACT: Twitter: @BloodTies_PodInstagram: bloodties_podEmail: bloodties.podcast@gmail.com YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bloodtiespodcastSupport: patreon.com/bloodtiespodcastPlease complete our survey if you have time: http://bit.ly/bloodtiespodcast-survey Hosted on Acast.
