  • Summary

  • The episode describes the Soham murders, a horrific crime that occurred in 2002 when two ten-year-old girls, Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman, were lured into the home of Ian Huntley, a school caretaker, and subsequently murdered. The investigation was extensive, involving a massive search effort and numerous leads. Huntley was eventually convicted of both murders and sentenced to life imprisonment, while his girlfriend Maxine Carr was sentenced to prison for perverting the course of justice by providing him with a false alibi. The case also highlighted significant flaws in police vetting procedures, leading to a public inquiry and subsequent changes to child protection measures.
