Listen Later

In Episode XXIIV- Switzerland has a crime rate so low that few would ever regard it as a natural source for the T&T podcast- but then along comes a case of multiple homicides try and prove otherwise.

Phil looks into this grim account of the barbaric Thomas Nick, as he spied and tracked the movements of a hapless family, before striking to commit acts of kidnap, child abuse and arson. Worryingly, there were clear signs that this was merely a template for far worse things to come, from a man dubbed 'The Beast of Rupperswil'...

Carla delves back into a case which shares it name with a children's tale, only brought to life in a far darker reality. Brighton girls Nicola Fellows & Karen Hadaway sadly became known as the fabled 'Babes In The Wood', as they fell prey to the hands of killer Russell Bishop. His relentless falsehoods twisted the legal system just enough to evade conviction in 1987... Only to find he couldn't escape ever advancing, compelling forensic evidence upon retrail. Justice delivered 20 years in the making.
