While seaside towns in Britain attract holidaymakers during the warmer seasons, itâs far from idyllic in some cases.
Letâs just say, it s sometimes awash with people with sinister intentions. And CBS Justiceâs âCoastal Killersâ uncovers some of these shocking crimes.
The show, currently in its second season, features crime historian and author, Dr Nell Darby, who is busy with a new book, as one of the experts.
IN MAY 1996, a group of forestry workers made a horrifying discovery in Wentwood Forest – among the smouldering remains of a fire were what appeared to be human bones. Detectives immediately began treating the incident as a murder, as it emerged the perpetrator had gone to extreme lengths to keep their victim’s identity a secret. The person in the forest had apparently been shot to death, before having his body dismembered and set alight. The police were initially stumped. With no way to identify the victim, how could they possibly catch the killer? Now, the Gwent Police investigation into this gruesome murder is the subject of a new documentary being televised this evening (February 2).
