About this listen
When 10-year-olds Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman vanished from the quiet town of Soham in 2002, Britain was gripped by a tragedy that quickly spiralled into one of the most disturbing child murder cases in modern history. In this first episode of a three-part investigative series, Psycho Killer: Shocking True Crime Stories examines the early signs, missed red flags, and manipulative behaviours of Ian Huntley—the school caretaker who inserted himself into the heart of the investigation… while knowing exactly what had happened to the girls.
🎧 Expect meticulous research, forensic detail, and professional insight. This isn’t just another retelling — it’s a deep, intelligent dive into a killer’s psychology and the systemic failures that allowed him to remain hidden in plain sight. 🔍 What makes us different?
