In week 3 of our block entitled GIRL POWER, we explore the tragic murders of Jessica Wells and Holly Chapman, as well as the work performed, behind-the-scenes, by bada$$ forensic ecologist, botanist and palynologist Patricia Wilshire!
Ian Huntley’s shocking crimes against 10-year-olds Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman gripped the UK in 2002, but the seeds of this tragedy were sown long before. In this episode we peel back the layers of Huntley’s disturbing history as a serial sexual predator, ignored warning signs, prior allegations, and institutional failures that let him keep working around children. We also examine the pivotal role played by his girlfriend, Maxine Carr, who supplied a false alibi and helped twist the national narrative before the truth surfaced. 🚨
🎙️ What you’ll hear:
• A concise timeline of August 4th, 2002 - the girls’ last day alive
• Huntley’s pattern of grooming, intimidation, and escalating behavior ⚠️
• How Maxine Carr became an unlikely accomplice, and the courtroom bombshells that followed

• The legacy of the Soham case on UK safeguarding laws & DBS checks 🏛️
