In this episode, with special guest Grace from Redrum, Geoffrey and Molly confront one of the most disturbing crimes in recent British history. The murder of Brianna Ghey. A 16 year old girl who trusted the wrong people and paid with her life.

On 11 February 2023, Brianna was lured to a park by someone she believed was a friend. What awaited her was not friendship, but a carefully planned act of extreme violence. Scarlett Jenkinson and Eddie Ratcliffe, both just 15 at the time, had planned the attack in advance. This was not a moment of rage. It was deliberate. It was cold. And it was brutal.

The court would later describe the crime as driven by sadistic tendencies, with transphobia playing a secondary role. That finding raises uncomfortable questions. About cruelty. About obsession with violence. And about how two teenagers came to see murder as something to rehearse, discuss, and finally carry out.
