Summary
Following the gripping two-part episode of 24 Hours in Police Custody, today’s podcast goes beyond the screen and into the reality of a case that haunted investigators for a decade. In 2013, 86‑year‑old Una Crown was murdered in her own home. Despite extensive enquiries at the time, vital questions went unanswered, and the investigation stalled. Years later, everything changed — not through luck, but through advances in DNA technology that allowed officers to re‑examine evidence in ways that simply weren’t possible before. In this episode, we’re joined by Senior Investigating Officer Iain Moor, who led the re‑investigation into Una Crown’s murder. He explains how developments in forensic science proved critical, the pressure of revisiting a deeply traumatic case, and the persistence required to finally move closer to justice. This is a rare behind‑the‑scenes insight into modern policing — where time, technology, and determination come together in the pursuit of the truth. You’ve seen the story unfold on screen. Now, hear it from the officer who led it.
