24 Hours in Police Custody: Ch4
Discussion
First case looked a run of the mill domestic, with hindsight a more thorough house search might have prevented a second trial.
The mother/daughter case was tragic, it would be interesting to know if other relatives existed and if
they offered support, practical or financial to Theresa.

I already want to do harm to the person who decided to re-enforce points via the typed memo on the screen and the clitter-clack of a mechanical keyboard.
This. So annoying. Said this to the Mrs last night. I tend to watch old crime documentaries on YouTube; there are loads and they are much more watchable.
Yeah, true crime on Youtube like 'Dr Grande' and 'That Chapter' sum up cases in a concise manner in a fraction of the time it takes TV channels.
Saying that 'Murder Case, Digital Detectives' on Channel 4 currently is pretty decent, a lot less filler and a better unfolding story due to the amount of suspects

Big fan of the good Dr. Grande, who can give a potted history of the case, examine the evidence for and against guilt, and give a verdict, all in 15minutes.
He lives in a country where he has the freedom to pontificate and speculate on crime cases that are in the news but haven't gone to trial. That's real freedom of speech.

Free speech ends at someone's right to a fair and unprejudiced trial.He lives in a country where he has the freedom to pontificate and speculate on crime cases that are in the news but haven't gone to trial. That's real freedom of speech.

Murder 24/7 on BBC1 tonight, guy murders his ex-partner in her bed. Life with a minimum of 15 years. Doesn t seem enough.
Minor point ,they seem to have lowered the volume on the clacky keyboard noise throughout the program.
Noticed that about the keyboard as well! Minor point ,they seem to have lowered the volume on the clacky keyboard noise throughout the program.
Total agree that 15 years didn't seem enough, he'd come out with a decent part of his life still left. I wonder if the victims family are appealing it.
I also notice the night before had the DPD delivery driver murder which has been on before, yet before it was 3 episodes in series 2, did they just condense 3 episodes down to 1 and call it a new episode for series 3

The DPD episode the other night solely focused on catching the outstanding four suspects from the white Mercedes. Total agree that 15 years didn't seem enough, he'd come out with a decent part of his life still left. I wonder if the victims family are appealing it.

15 years does seem unduly lenient considering how premeditated the whole thing was and how barbaric it was. He'll probably appear on a parole documentary in the future and hopefully be denied for at least 10 years.
Murder 24/7 tonight, part 1 was a guy who murdered another man, tortured him for his PIN number, recorded some of the attack on his phone, broke all but 3 of his ribs, sole of his boot left a tread mark on victims chest, fortunately police managed to arrest him fairly quickly but he was an utter dick in the interview room, hopefully he’ll die before being released.
Part 2, on iPlayer, was the conclusion of the above followed by a guy who tried to murder his partner with a meat cleaver, guy had dozens of convictions, it was only the quick intervention by the first police on site that managed to keep her alive, another one that I hope he dies of old age while still in prison.

One that killed his wife and who had 2 young kids was sad. Odd what goes through peoples minds.
There are so many of these programmes now that I get mixed up which is which. Was that the one where the police were pleased to find the birthday gifts? Anyway, I saw one last week where that was the situation and it was baffling how anyone could want to kill the other parent of their own children.Randy Winkman said:

I still think if it's definitely proven that someone has murdered someone else, a guilty admission or something along those lines - the death penalty is still a fitting punishment.

Couple of evil thugs.Part 2, on iPlayer, was the conclusion of the above followed by a guy who tried to murder his partner with a meat cleaver, guy had dozens of convictions, it was only the quick intervention by the first police on site that managed to keep her alive, another one that I hope he dies of old age while still in prison.
Nice touch that first guy said to victim that he could get 'thirty years for this' - and he got thirty-two.
Thought the sentence for second guy was light - probably because he 'only' inflicted life-changing injuries, and didn't succeed in killing her.
One of them had 77 previous convictions! imo we need to start locking up those who are a danger to society for a long time after the first couple of violent incidents.
Each successive government says prisons are full (no wonder if the populations increased by millions) but I'm sure it would be a net gain to the economy (let alone society) if these sorts of people were locked up even if it meant slightly more tax having to be shelled out to do so.
