Crime Talk Timestamp-3:35

In today’s episode we continue our 2 part deep dive into the case of 39 year old Sophie Toscan Du Plantier , a successful French television producer who was found brutally murdered in her holiday home in West Cork, Ireland.

Sophie’s horrific & bloody murder was the subject of much local speculation in the small town of Schull leading to many rumours & suspicion. Most of which was cast mainly upon one local resident , odd, eccentric British journalist Ian Bailey who had settled in West Cork years earlier .

Baileys bizarre behaviour & insistence on inserting himself into not only the crime scene, but writing about & continually talking about her murder only added to him becoming the number one suspect in her killing .

Today we discuss the process of investigation following her murder & all the different factors that may well have led to Sophie’s killer walking away a free man.

Not only leaving her heart broken family deprived of justice for their loved one, but also questioning how perhaps if things had been done differently in both Irish & French courts then her murderer would have been sentenced & duly punished for this brutal & evil crime….
