UK True Crime Podcast

This podcast normally has a focus on victims of crime. Today, is different as I focus on the prime suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, Christian Brückner.In this special episode, I chat with Alex Frieling, a freelance German journalist covering crime, justice and investigative stories. He has reported extensively on Christian Brückner and the disappearance of Madeleine McCann for several British and German media outlets, including the Daily Mirror and The Sun. Over the past few years, he has attended court hearings, spoken with sources connected to the case and conducted on-the-ground reporting in Germany and so I was very keen to talk with him about Brückner.To follow his work - and I highly recommend it - Alex can be found on TikTok and other social media platforms under his name, Alex Frieling.Please join me for the next episode of the UK True Crime Podcast on Tuesday.Support me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeWatch my YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime/videosGet All The News First - Subscribe To My Newsletterhttps://uktruecrime.comJoin UK True Crime Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of the UK True Crime Podcast, I examine the tragic murder of Jessie Hurlstone, a young woman living in Devon whose life was taken following a campaign of obsessive stalking that escalated into deadly violence. I explore Jessie’s life, the investigation that followed her killing, the evidence presented in court, and the conviction of Stephen Webber.. This is a heartbreaking case that serves as a powerful reminder that stalking is never harmless and should always be taken seriously.Please join me for the next episode of the UK True Crime Podcast on Friday.Support me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeWriting Credit: Chris WoodYou can buy Chris's second book, 'Death in the Theatre' here: https://www.amazon.com/Death-Theatre-Chris-Wood/dp/1399009117Watch my YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime/videosGet All The News First - Subscribe To My Newsletterhttps://uktruecrime.comJoin UK True Crime Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime Hosted on Acast.

A crime with no victims, just the faceless banks. Or is that ever really the case?Elliot Castro was one of the most prolific fraudsters in the UK, starting from a very early age where he stole identities and credit card details to fund a life of luxury across the world. From five-star hotels to designer shopping sprees, Castro lived under countless false identities while staying one step ahead of authorities for years. But behind the glamour was a deeply compulsive double life built on deception, manipulation and fraud.In this episode, I look at how Elliot Castro became one of the UK’s most notorious conmen - and how his extraordinary criminal career finally came crashing down.I release episodes every Tuesday and Friday, so please join me on Friday for the next episode of the UK True Crime Podcast.Buy My New True Crime Content Creators Online Coursehttps://adam-s-site-be58.thinkific.com/products/courses/true-crime-content-creation-courseWatch my YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime/videosGet All The News First - Subscribe To My Newsletterhttps://uktruecrime.comJoin UK True Crime Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime Hosted on Acast.
