Show Notes
In October 1982, the peaceful village of Llanberis in North Wales was shattered by an unthinkable crime - the local rector had been found brutally murdered in his own home.
Canon Alun Jones was a well-respected clergyman, known for his dedication to the Church and his quiet, compassionate presence within the community.
But behind the doors of the rectory, a violent and frenzied attack had unfolded - one carried out not by a hardened criminal, but by a troubled 15-year-old boy.
As the investigation progressed, disturbing details began to emerge. This was a murder driven not by impulse alone, but by fear, resentment, and a misguided attempt to escape the consequences of a life spiralling out of control.
