Seeing Red A True Crime Podcast

This week we head to London as we take a look at Marius Gustavson - a man with a passion for human butchery. After having his own penis and testicles willingly removed by a sex worker in 2017, Gustavson was inspired to help other men become eunuchs too. He would go on to carry out up to 30 procedures on vulnerable men over the following five years, in what became an international ring of barbarism. This is possibly one of the grimmest cases we have ever covered, so listener discretion is very much advised.

This week we head Down Under, to Australia, as we take a look at a crime so evil, it sent shockwaves around the entire world. Millions of people go backpacking every year. The thrill of adventuring into the unknown, meeting new people and experiencing new cultures is appealing to many. But it's not without its risks. When backpackers started to disappear around the Belanglo State Forrest in New South Wales in the early 1990's, locals started to ask questions. But it wasn't until the discovery of the bodies of two British backpackers that police started to take notice. What they uncovered shocked them to their very core. A serial killer was operating deep in the forest.

This week we head Down Under, to the vibrant city of Adelaide. Adelaide is undeniably stunning, and has long enjoyed reasonably low rates of violent crime – so it is equally both sad and surprising that such a beautiful part of the world should become the backdrop to this weeks’ episode; a story of jealousy, obsession, abuse, and ultimately, murder, which culminated in the tragic death of a young nursing student who had a promising future stretching out ahead of her but was taken away far too soon by an obsessed man who had sworn to love and possess her – by any means necessary.

But when she was removed from the family home and placed into foster care, it looked as though she was destined for a happy ending... However, as we know all too well, it doesn't always happen like that. While her foster family was loving and supportive, a catastrophic chain of events had already been set in motion that would see her betrayed in the cruellest of ways.

In the middle of an exceptionally harsh winter back in 1959, a group of experienced Russian hikers embarked on a daring expedition into the expansive snow-covered wastelands of the Ural Mountains. The young adventurers set out hoping to explore unknown territory, summit unconquered mountains, and bring pride to the USSR. However, what was intended to be an exciting and daring foray into the great unknown soon turned into a harrowing nightmare. The violent fate that met the group of hikers out there in the unforgiving wilderness created a darkly popular enigma that continues to baffle investigators, conspiracy theorists, and true crime enthusiasts to this very day. Join us, in what is our season 10 finale, as we attempt to unpick this mind-bending mystery.

This week, in a listener-researched and written episode, we head to Omagh in Northern Ireland, as we take a look at the brutal 1998 murder of 17-year-old Sylvia Fleming. On the cusp of adulthood, and with a difficult childhood now behind her, Sylvia thought she had struck gold when she met 26-year-old Stephen Scott. He was charming, handsome and popular. But he had a wicked side and enjoyed putting Sylvia down in front of her friends and family. And behind closed doors, things were much, much worse. He carried out his sadistic sexual fantasies on Sylvia and on the night of 3 April 1998, armed with a syringe full of insulin, he went too far and Sylvia paid with her life. A truly harrowing case... Our thanks to Rhiannon Smith for researching and writing this episode and our thoughts remain with the loved one of Sylvia Fleming.

Something a bit different this week as we swap criminal trials for libel trials... In the glamourous and glitzy dream-like world of Hollywood, very few legal battles have captured the public's attention as intensely as the bitter court proceedings between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard; two Hollywood powerhouses whose high-profile marriage ended just as quickly as it had begun. As far as love stories go, the romance between these two was about as ‘Hollywood’ as it gets. Ironically, however, not even the most talented of Hollywood scriptwriters could have written such a dramatic, bizarre, and tumultuous tale of love, violence, betrayal and abuse. Join us as we take a deep dive into one of Hollywood's most bitter divorces.

In May 2020, Eleanor Williams, a 20-year-old woman from Barrow-in-Furness, started typing out a lengthy post on Facebook. In it, she described how she had been trafficked, gang raped and beaten black and blue by 'evil, yet clever men'. Eleanor was desperate. Desperate to be heard and desperate for the authorities to rescue her. But there was a shocking twist in this story that very few saw coming... Join us as we pick apart this truly fascinating case.

On 29 July in 1981, as the world waited in anticipation for the fairy-tale wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles, the Mehrotra family made their way into central London to join in with the celebrations.

In early 2019, Jussie Smollett was half way through filming the fifth season of the hit show Empire when he was savagely assaulted in a racist and homophobic attack while walking home from Subway in the early hours of the morning. What followed led to widespread condemnation and important debate at what was a politically sensitive time for the USA. But the condemnation and debate was based on hollow foundations, for Jussie had made the whole thing up. And it wouldn't take long for his tall tales to catch up with him...

It's great to be back and it's great to have you back with us. Thanks for your continued support.   Our season 10 opener sees us head back to 2012 and to the port city of Southampton, as we dive head first into the mob killing of 22-year-old Jamie Dack.   Jamie had recently gone through a relationship break up, something many of us can empathise with. He was vulnerable and in need of support, and he thought he had found that support in the shape of four friends... But, unbeknown to Jamie, they had far more sinister motives for befriending him... What follows is gruesome and barbaric and will shock you to the core.   Show Sponsor: BetterHelp - Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/red and get on your way to being your best self.

We're on our end of season 9 break right now, back with our season 10 premier on 13 September. To fill the gap, we've delved into our archives to bring you an episode that has resonated with us for one reason or another. This week it's Mark's turn. Before he plays the episode, he talks you through why he's dug this particular episode out and why he was inspired to cover it. ORIGINAL SYNOPSIS: This week, we take a deep dive into the life and death of Kim Jong-nam, the brother of North Korean dictator and all round nut job Kim Jong-un. Following an ill-feted trip to Disneyland in 2001, Jong-nam was ostracised from the family and exiled to Macau. Here, he led a relatively normal life, going about his business under a false name, passing information to the CIA, while occasionally speaking out against his brother's authoritarian rule over North Korea. But the clock was always ticking on Kim Jong-nam's life and in 2017, as he arrived at Kuala Lumpur International Airport to fly home to his wife and kids, he was executed in front of dozens of passengers. Join us as we shine a light on North Korea and take you, in real-time, to the very public assassination of Kim Jong-nam. This case has been inspired by 'Assassins' - a true crime documentary which is available in virtual cinemas and on demand now. For further information, head to www.assassins-film.co.uk.

This week we take a look at the tragic life of 16-year-old Kaylea Titford. Kaylea was born with spina bifida and all of the normal things that children often take for granted, such as running around and playing football, were impossible for her. But she was feisty and fiercely independent - determined to make the most of her time on this earth. But that time would be brief. Not because of her condition, but because of her parents' brutal neglect of her.  Kaylea was fed a diet of junk food and by the time she was 16, she had ballooned to 22 stone. Pressure sores covered her body and maggots feasted upon her open wounds... And her parents did nothing. They closed the door on her both metaphorically and physically... This is a deeply upsetting case.

This time on Seeing Red we head north to Scotland, or more precisely, to The Orkney Isles. The Orkney Isles are a group of seventy small islands off the north coast of Scotland. The largest of the islands is called Mainland and it is widely considered to be one of the most peaceful and idyllic places on Earth. But this hasn't always been the case. On 2 June 1994, a man walked into an Indian restaurant on the island and shot a waiter in the head at point-blank range... This was a crime that not only shocked Scotland, but the entire United Kingdom. And what followed in the aftermath has caused widespread debate...

This week's episode begins in 2006, in Novokuznetsk – a large industrial city situated in south-western Siberia, Russia.  Irish couple Geraldine and Patric Kriegel weren't planning on adopting a child when they visited an orphanage in the Russian city, but when they set eyes on two-year-old Anastasia, their hearts melted and they knew they had to rescue her. Binging her home with them to Lucan, a small town on the outskirts of Dublin, Anastasia was set for a life of privilege... But very sadly, fate had a different plan in store for her...

This week, we dive head first into the violent marriage of Richard and Sheree Spencer. Sheree Spencer's campaign of terror against her husband went unabated for two long decades. One particularly vile incident saw Sheree defecate on the floor before forcing Richard to clean up her mess. She took domestic violence to new levels and on the outside, no one knew... She masqueraded as a respectable businesswoman - a woman who boasted about her close links to former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. But behind closed doors, she revelled in her sadistic nature.

In the beautiful English county of Wiltshire, just 9 miles south of the iconic prehistoric stone circle at Stonehenge, you’ll find Salisbury - a picturesque, historical city that is probably best known for its stunning medieval cathedral. On paper, Salisbury is a shining combination of Britain’s rich history, culture, and aesthetic beauty – which is what makes this week’s story even more shocking – for who could have ever predicted that this postcard perfect city in the heart of England would, in March 2018, become the scene of a deadly chemical attack, perpetrated by ruthless foreign government officials in pursuit of a murderous agenda.

Marie Wilks was just 22-years-old and seven months pregnant when she broke down on the M50 on the evening of 18th June 1988. Stranded and helpless, and with the dark sky descending overhead, she must have felt a huge sense of relief when a man pulled over to help. But he wasn't there to help... He was there to take advantage of Marie's vulnerable circumstances, with devastating consequences.

We are currently on our end of season break, busily preparing for Season 9, which premieres on 8 March... We didn't want to leave you hanging though, so we have delved into our archives to replay a special episode... The first couple of minutes hears Mark detailing why he hasn't been able to put this case to bed and why he wanted the opportunity to share it with you once again... SYNOPSIS: For this episode, we head to Birmingham as we cover the tragic and deeply unsettling case of Hakeem Hussain... Hakeem' short life came to an abrupt end in the early hours of 26 November 2017.

Well, the title says it all in this instance... This week, Bethan takes us back to 1973 - a more simple time, some might say... And that may be true. But it was also a time of systemic corruption within certain organisations, such as the police. This case features the brutal murder of Wendy Sewell and a miscarriage of justice that will have you tearing your hair out in frustration...

When we hear the terms 'domestic abuse' or 'domestic violence', we often think of the perpetrator as being male, and the victim female...  But this isn't always the case. In fact, 35% of domestic abuse victims are men. And, disturbingly, it appears this number is on the rise... This week, Bethan tells us about two truly harrowing cases of domestic abuse, both at the hands of women.

This week, we head back to 2007 as we examine the brutal assault on 21-year-old Robert Maltby, and the senseless murder of his girlfriend, 20-year-old Sophie Lancaster, as they walked through a park. It's a case that shocked the nation, and it happened at a time when Britain seemed to be broken - pockets of the country had descended into lawless enclaves - and communities feared for their safety, with good reason too...
