Seeing Red A True Crime Podcast

We are back with our Season 11 Premier... This time we head to the Scottish Highlands as we uncover the mystery surrounding the disappearance of 63-year-old family man Tony Parsons. When Tony's family waved him off as he embarked on a 100 mile solo charity bike ride, they could never have imagined that they would never see him again. Half way through his expedition, Tony seemingly vanished into thin air. It would take three long years to uncover the truth of what happened to Tony Parsons deep in the Scottish Highlands.

In the middle of an exceptionally harsh winter back in 1959, a group of experienced Russian hikers embarked on a daring expedition into the expansive snow-covered wastelands of the Ural Mountains. The young adventurers set out hoping to explore unknown territory, summit unconquered mountains, and bring pride to the USSR. However, what was intended to be an exciting and daring foray into the great unknown soon turned into a harrowing nightmare. The violent fate that met the group of hikers out there in the unforgiving wilderness created a darkly popular enigma that continues to baffle investigators, conspiracy theorists, and true crime enthusiasts to this very day. Join us, in what is our season 10 finale, as we attempt to unpick this mind-bending mystery.

This week, in a listener-researched and written episode, we head to Omagh in Northern Ireland, as we take a look at the brutal 1998 murder of 17-year-old Sylvia Fleming. On the cusp of adulthood, and with a difficult childhood now behind her, Sylvia thought she had struck gold when she met 26-year-old Stephen Scott. He was charming, handsome and popular. But he had a wicked side and enjoyed putting Sylvia down in front of her friends and family. And behind closed doors, things were much, much worse. He carried out his sadistic sexual fantasies on Sylvia and on the night of 3 April 1998, armed with a syringe full of insulin, he went too far and Sylvia paid with her life. A truly harrowing case... Our thanks to Rhiannon Smith for researching and writing this episode and our thoughts remain with the loved one of Sylvia Fleming.

Something a bit different this week as we swap criminal trials for libel trials... In the glamourous and glitzy dream-like world of Hollywood, very few legal battles have captured the public's attention as intensely as the bitter court proceedings between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard; two Hollywood powerhouses whose high-profile marriage ended just as quickly as it had begun. As far as love stories go, the romance between these two was about as ‘Hollywood’ as it gets. Ironically, however, not even the most talented of Hollywood scriptwriters could have written such a dramatic, bizarre, and tumultuous tale of love, violence, betrayal and abuse. Join us as we take a deep dive into one of Hollywood's most bitter divorces.

In May 2020, Eleanor Williams, a 20-year-old woman from Barrow-in-Furness, started typing out a lengthy post on Facebook. In it, she described how she had been trafficked, gang raped and beaten black and blue by 'evil, yet clever men'. Eleanor was desperate. Desperate to be heard and desperate for the authorities to rescue her. But there was a shocking twist in this story that very few saw coming... Join us as we pick apart this truly fascinating case.

This week we head to London, and to 1981, as we explore the mysterious disappearance of 8-year-old Vishal Mehrotra. On 29 July in 1981, as the world waited in anticipation for the fairy-tale wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles, the Mehrotra family made their way into central London to join in with the celebrations. Dad Vishambar worked in a tall office building in the City and knew this would be a great vantage point from which to watch the royal procession. Daughter Mamta, son Vishal and nanny Joannita watched in awe as the crowds gathered below and the newly married couple passed by in their glass carriage. What started as a day of celebration and excitement, ended in despair however, when Vishal disappeared on the way home. Just what happened to this little boy? And who was responsible?

This week we head across the Atlantic to Chicago, as we explore the Jussie Smollett Hate Crime Hoax of 2019. In early 2019, Jussie Smollett was half way through filming the fifth season of the hit show Empire when he was savagely assaulted in a racist and homophobic attack while walking home from Subway in the early hours of the morning. What followed led to widespread condemnation and important debate at what was a politically sensitive time for the USA. But the condemnation and debate was based on hollow foundations, for Jussie had made the whole thing up. And it wouldn't take long for his tall tales to catch up with him...

It's great to be back and it's great to have you back with us. Thanks for your continued support. Our season 10 opener sees us head back to 2012 and to the port city of Southampton, as we dive head first into the mob killing of 22-year-old Jamie Dack. Jamie had recently gone through a relationship break up, something many of us can empathise with. He was vulnerable and in need of support, and he thought he had found that support in the shape of four friends... But, unbeknown to Jamie, they had far more sinister motives for befriending him... What follows is gruesome and barbaric and will shock you to the core. Show Sponsor: BetterHelp - Give online therapy a try at betterhelp.com/red and get on your way to being your best self.

We're on our end of season 9 break right now, back with our season 10 premier on 13 September. To fill the gap, we've delved into our archives to bring you an episode that has resonated with us for one reason or another. This week it's Mark's turn. Before he plays the episode, he talks you through why he's dug this particular episode out and why he was inspired to cover it. ORIGINAL SYNOPSIS: This week, we take a deep dive into the life and death of Kim Jong-nam, the brother of North Korean dictator and all round nut job Kim Jong-un. Following an ill-feted trip to Disneyland in 2001, Jong-nam was ostracised from the family and exiled to Macau. Here, he led a relatively normal life, going about his business under a false name, passing information to the CIA, while occasionally speaking out against his brother's authoritarian rule over North Korea. But the clock was always ticking on Kim Jong-nam's life and in 2017, as he arrived at Kuala Lumpur International Airport to fly home to his wife and kids, he was executed in front of dozens of passengers. Join us as we shine a light on North Korea and take you, in real-time, to the very public assassination of Kim Jong-nam. This case has been inspired by 'Assassins' - a true crime documentary which is available in virtual cinemas and on demand now. For further information, head to www.assassins-film.co.uk.

This week we take a look at the tragic life of 16-year-old Kaylea Titford. Kaylea was born with spina bifida and all of the normal things that children often take for granted, such as running around and playing football, were impossible for her. But she was feisty and fiercely independent - determined to make the most of her time on this earth. But that time would be brief. Not because of her condition, but because of her parents' brutal neglect of her. Kaylea was fed a diet of junk food and by the time she was 16, she had ballooned to 22 stone. Pressure sores covered her body and maggots feasted upon her open wounds... And her parents did nothing. They closed the door on her both metaphorically and physically... This is a deeply upsetting case.

This time on Seeing Red we head north to Scotland, or more precisely, to The Orkney Isles. The Orkney Isles are a group of seventy small islands off the north coast of Scotland. The largest of the islands is called Mainland and it is widely considered to be one of the most peaceful and idyllic places on Earth. But this hasn't always been the case. On 2 June 1994, a man walked into an Indian restaurant on the island and shot a waiter in the head at point-blank range... This was a crime that not only shocked Scotland, but the entire United Kingdom. And what followed in the aftermath has caused widespread debate...

This week's episode begins in 2006, in Novokuznetsk – a large industrial city situated in south-western Siberia, Russia. Irish couple Geraldine and Patric Kriegel weren't planning on adopting a child when they visited an orphanage in the Russian city, but when they set eyes on two-year-old Anastasia, their hearts melted and they knew they had to rescue her. Binging her home with them to Lucan, a small town on the outskirts of Dublin, Anastasia was set for a life of privilege... But very sadly, fate had a different plan in store for her... This is a terribly upsetting case that sees us delve in to the disturbing subject of child-on-child murder. Check pout Adam's gin: Bloodhound Gin – Persie Distillery - use code UKTC for 10% off!

This week, we dive head first into the violent marriage of Richard and Sheree Spencer. Sheree Spencer's campaign of terror against her husband went unabated for two long decades. One particularly vile incident saw Sheree defecate on the floor before forcing Richard to clean up her mess. She took domestic violence to new levels and on the outside, no one knew... She masqueraded as a respectable businesswoman - a woman who boasted about her close links to former Prime Minister Boris Johnson. But behind closed doors, she revelled in her sadistic nature.
