TRUE CRIME -
On this episode we discuss one of the darkest and murkiest of topics and definitley not for the feint of heart! Gordon Hayden joins me to talk about a murder that rocked the UK in the early 90s and left a lasting impression on the public at large when it came to the safety of their children.
2 year old James Bulger was abducted and brutally tortured and murdered by two 10 year old boys, John Venables and Robert Thompson. The trial was grim and left lots of people questioning the justice system and their own internal moral compass. A very public trial and ongoing modern day media attention leaves us all asking questions about the origins of this crime; how it was dealt with and what has become of the killers now.
