UK Mom Murders Her Kids to Save Them? - The Case of Lianne Smith

In this episode of Love and Murder, we journey through the twisted case of Martin and Lianne Smith, a couple whose life on the run from the law ends in unspeakable tragedy. We're whisked away to a quaint English village where the Smith's lives unravel in a saga of betrayal and bloodshed that spans across the UK and into the sun-drenched streets of Spain.For 18 years, Martin and Leanne Smith harbored secrets dark enough to eclipse the innocence of their nomadic existence. But when Martin's heinous crimes against a child surface, the couple's world implodes, leading to a run from justice that ends in the tragic smothering of their two young children.The courtroom becomes a battleground of defense pleas for insanity, but the cold, hard verdict speaks volumes of a mother's calculated cruelty. And just when you think the story has revealed all its shadows, a question of paternity casts a new pall over this already dark tale.This episode is a horrible reminder that love can sometimes be the first step to the most horrific of human behaviors - murder. Remember to join the conversation and share your thoughts on this case. Poll: Do you think the paternity of the Smith kids should have been brought up in court at all?Answer in the new LaM WhatsApp Group: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaVw36a11ulSqWiPQQ3q************************************************************************************************Commercials:BJs - Save $35 on a yearly membership with my link: www.murderandlove.com/BJs✨✨For a commercial-free episode, pictures, and more head to our exclusive group at www.patreon.com/loveandmurder✨✨Podcast Promo: Creepy Tapas*************************************************************************************************🧃Buy me a coffee (or an apple juice)🧃:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/loveandmurderYou can now join Love and Murder's Supporter's Club in one of 3 places:1.
