The Torso In The Tank
from The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast
An intriguing and sad case this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, involving the tale of a macabre discovery in a North East chemical storage plant of a decade old murder at the end of the 1970's, that on the face of it, was a pretty much open and shut case.Except that a pioneering documentary series looked again at it only a few years later, and suggested with some strength - and proof - that it wasn't. This episode contains descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
