Prash's Murder Map: True Crime Podcast

In 1984, a serial burglar and rapist was at large in England, his crimes spanning several Home Counties as well as the northeast of the country. He was armed, masked and dangerous, and he had an unusual calling card – in every house he broke into, he built himself a blanket fort in the living room and made himself at home, watching television and drinking cups of tea. His habit of den-building and the way he slunk off into the countryside after his assaults soon led to him being given the nickname ‘The Fox’. People were fearful, and the police had a tough job on their hands as his attacks crossed multiple jurisdictions. They were learning more about him each time he struck, but they needed to catch him fast before his violence escalated. Who was The Fox, and how would they find him?

Update 29th May 2024
72 year old Malcolm Fairley A.K.A The Fox died at HMP Hull yesterday (Tuesday 28th May)  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1dde87035po

Note: Thank you to those of you who have correctly pointed out that Malcolm Fairley should not be referred to as a "Geordie", as he was from Sunderland, which makes him colloquially known as a "Mackem". This is a common error and derived from the Brampton victim stating on 18 August 1984 that they recognized his accent as being from "somewhere in the northeast" and erroneously referring to him as a Geordie. I quoted it from there without fully understanding the differences. Apologies for the inaccuracy.

In this episode, I examine three lesser-known nineteenth-century murder cases which are too brief to cover individually, but nevertheless offer fascinating insights into crime and justice in Victorian Britain. These stories include a murder involving deception, a businessman responsible for the deaths of an entire family, an execution by guillotine, a mysterious letter, and the curious death of a man described in the press as a living scarecrow. Though often overlooked today, each case attracted attention in its own time and presents its own unanswered questions.

When a pair of legs washed up in Clifford Pier Harbour in Singapore, the police knew something was very wrong. That same week, a South African tourist who had travelled to the country to buy the latest electronics was reported missing. He would never make it home. Somehow, in a country with one of the lowest crime rates in the world and a draconian criminal justice system, he fell prey to British serial killer John Scripps, who travelled the world murdering unsuspecting tourists and butchering their bodies. Who was Scripps, and how did the police track him down?

What kind of killer could chisel out the panel of a door and creep inside without waking a soul? How was he so light on his feet that nobody heard him coming on the dark, moonless nights on which he struck? That’s what the people of New Orleans were asking themselves when their city was terrorised by a mysterious Axeman who targeted Italian grocers, leaving nothing behind but blood, fear, and a discarded weapon - and taking nothing with him except the secret of his identity. He came and went like a phantom, spreading a wave of brutality through the City of Festivals that would not easily be forgotten. Who was the Axeman of New Orleans?

Anjette Donovan Lyles ran a popular diner in downtown Macon, Georgia and she oozed Southern charm, wowing customers with her lemon pie and banana pudding. But behind the home-cooked meals and the bright red lipstick-smile, lurked a dangerous killer from whom none of her family members were safe…

When a WWII veteran was approached in Philadelphia by a man in a distinctive alpine hat, the two seemed to hit it off. But by the next morning, one of them would be dead and the other would become the object of a manhunt after a grisly discovery was made inside an abandoned footlocker. But was the case as clear cut as it seemed?

Why did it take so long for the killer of 16-year-old Lynn Siddons to be brought to justice? This case involved a man who was obsessed with Jack the Ripper and blamed his crimes on his stepson, and a police force who were woefully inefficient in tackling the case. Lynn’s tenacious grandmother was forced to fight for the truth, in an 18-year legal battle that no bereaved family should ever have to endure.

It should have been obvious that for school cleaner Vincent Stanford, spying on girls in the bathroom was just the beginning. When he began stalking a 12-year-old pupil and amassed hundreds of photos of her, it was only a matter of time before he escalated to rape and murder. His victim was dedicated teacher Stephanie Scott, whose life he cut short just days before her wedding, in a case that shocked a small New South Wales community.
