Few people will feel sympathy for Ian Huntley, who this week was seriously attacked inside prison. The murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman in Soham remain among the most abhorrent crimes in modern British history - acts so senseless they are almost impossible to comprehend.

The man reported to have carried out the attack was Anthony Russell.

Back in October 2024, I covered Russell’s own crimes - a week of shocking violence that left three people dead and exposed just how dangerous he is.

In light of this latest development, I’ve decided to re-release that episode today - to revisit who Anthony Russell is, what he did, and how his name has once again returned to the headlines.

It was just a normal walk by the sea near his home for Steven Clark. He was with his mum walking on the seafront in Saltburn-by-the-Sea when he disappeared seemingly into thin air after visiting the public toilets. With no confirmed sightings and few answers, Steven's disappearance is one of the UK’s most puzzling missing person mysteries. Just what did happen to Steven?

The story this week is from South Wales and is as shocking a story as I have ever brought to you on the UK True Crime Podcast. It is hard to comprehend that in the small town of Maesteg, lived a man with an obsession for the crimes of Fred & Rose West and fantasised about travelling the county abducting, assaulting and murdering innocent women. In this episode, we hear how this fantasy become a terrifying reality.

In this special episode, I revisit the murder of Vicky Hall in Felixstowe in 1999.

Today, serial killer Steve Wright was sentenced for Vicky’s murder, his sixth known killing. I break down the developments from court at the sentencing hearing, reflect on the police investigation and its unanswered questions, explore why Wright may have chosen to confess after so many years, and consider what this case means for the possibility of further undiscovered victims.
