S15E07 | Lesley Whittle and the Sub-postmaster Murders: Lives Lost Across Four Counties (1974-1975)

  • Sumário

  • In the mid-seventies, a wave of terror swept across multiple English counties, culminating in the tragic murder of 17-year-old Lesley Whittle. A promising student and beloved daughter, Lesley was kidnapped and held for ransom - a nightmare that would grip her family and shock the nation. But Lesley wasn't the only victim of her captor. In the months leading up to her abduction, three sub-postmasters - Donald Skepper, Derek Astin and Sidney Grayland - had been ruthlessly targeted, each meeting a devastating fate. Despite their attempts to protect themselves and their communities, these innocent men became the victims of a chilling string of attacks, which led investigators on a relentless pursuit of one of Britain’s most notorious killers.
