Harold Shipman was trusted as a devoted family doctor in the small town of Hyde, England, but his legacy is one of terror and betrayal. Behind the mask of compassion, Shipman was a cold-blooded killer, responsible for the deaths of over 200 patients under his care. From his early life shaped by personal loss to the horrifying discoveries that exposed his crimes, this episode unravels the chilling story of how one of Britain’s most prolific serial killers used his position to commit murder undetected for decades. Join us as we explore the investigations that failed to stop him, the forensic evidence that finally brought him to justice, and the devastating impact his actions had on families, medical ethics, and the community he betrayed.
