The concluding part of the Series 5 opener of The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast heads back up to Scotland, where we continue our opening tale concerning the actions of a very disturbed, very nasty individual indeed. Trias, aftermath - and precursor.

The episode this week contains descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening. The episode also contains references to homophobic/racist beliefs and ideologies, and the use of a racial slur.

TTCEP would like to make it clear that in no way are these views shared by the show.
