Case 52 ’The Bodies Under The Bridge’ Lancaster 1935

This episode is about one of the most notorious multiple murder cases from the 1930s. One of the reasons that it was so renowned was the innovative forensic techniques that were used in solving a complex case that were way ahead of their time. It was a painstaking investigation to find out who the victims were and where the crime took place and to track down the culprit.
