In 1992, Rachel Nickell was walking on Wimbledon Common with her two-year-old son when she was brutally murdered in broad daylight.

The attack shocked the nation — not only because of its horror, but because of what followed: a deeply flawed police investigation, a controversial undercover operation, and the wrongful targeting of an innocent man.

In this episode, we look at the murder of Rachel Nickell, the devastating impact on her family, and the long road to justice after the truth finally emerged years later.
