Episode 89: Norman Bruce

Episode 89: Norman Bruce. This week Emma takes us to the beautiful island of Skye for the story of a terrible murder. Norman Bruce was 64 years old when he was murdered by his wife Sandra in a vicious domestic incident. Emma gives us details of the scale of the brutality involved in the attack and how the injuries sustained by Norman resembled those from a traffic accident. We hear of the apparent lack of repentance from Sandra Bruce throughout the investigation and court proceedings, as well as hearing shocking details of domestic incidents she allegedly committed against other members of the Bruce family.
