In 2016, 340 children were adopted in Wales. Ten month old Shayla O’Brien was one of those 340 children. Like most children put up for adoption, Shayla had entered this world under difficult circumstances. Born to a drug-addicted mother, she was added to the child protection register at birth, in November 2014. She left hospital when she was five days old and she was quickly taken into care by the Vale of Glamorgan council, before being placed with a foster family, where she remained until she was placed with an adoptive family in September 2015, at the age of ten months. This adoptive family consisted of two parents, Craig and Matthew Scully-Hicks, and a previously adopted older child. Matthew assumed the majority of the caring responsibilities for Shayla, and she remained as a 'looked after child' following her placement with the family until the making of the Adoption Order. The Adoption Order was granted in May 2016 and Shayla’s name was changed to Elsie. She was now officially a member of the Scully-Hicks family. This should have been the beginning of a happier life for Elsie, a life filled with love and opportunity… But it wasn’t to be. Just two weeks after the official adoption had been granted, Elsie would lie dead in her bed at the University of Wales Hospital, having suffered a catalogue of catastrophic injuries at the hands of Matthew Scully-Hicks. Just what happened to baby Elise... Join us as we take a deep dive into this disturbing and tragic case.

This week, in an episode researched and written by one of our listeners, Samantha Lewis, I take a deep dive into the divisive subject of illegal immigration. It's a truly tragic tale that features the deaths of 39 innocent people – 29 men, 8 women and two children, two boys who were aged just 15. They were all desperate for a new life in a country where the streets are perceived to be paved with gold. But for them, it wasn’t to be. This is the story of the Essex lorry deaths. www.vinedme.co.uk - use code seeingred10 at checkout for 10% off - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this company!

This week, I'm joined by my sister, Laura, who is a child protection expert, to discuss the torture and murder of eight-year-old Victoria Climbié. This is the story of an impoverished girl who was plucked from the volatile planes of the Ivory Coast with the promise of a new life in Europe. A life filled with luxury and opportunity. What followed, however, was a living nightmare. Just fifteen months after being rescued from her homeland, Victoria would lie dead in her bed in the intensive care unit of St Mary’s Hospital in London – the victim of one of the worst cases of child abuse in this country’s history. **Please note, despite spending an hour doing sound checks, we still managed to mess up the recording a bit! If you listen through headphones, when Laura speaks, the sound levels will appear distorted and you will only hear her in your left headphone (if you listen through your device's speaker(s), it will be fine, you'll barely notice). When I speak, which is the vast majority of the episode, it's fine, there's no distortion.** www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast Show Sponsors: www.beer52.com/RED www.issuu.com/podcast - use code RED at checkout for 50% off Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears - check out her work at www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

The village of Maids Moreton dates back to the 13th century and gets its name from two maiden wenches who are said to have financed the building of the parish church, St Edmund. Maids Moreton is a typical English village – small, tranquil, green – a real community built around the church where generations of the same families have lived for centuries. It’s not the kind of place you would expect to find murder and deceit. But that’s exactly what was found lurking in Maids Moreton in 2017 when not one, but two suspicious deaths were brought to the attention of Thames Valley Police… What follows is a tale of forbidden love, betrayal, fraud and of course murder… And it’s all set against the backdrop of the Diocese of Oxford. Honestly, this couldn’t be more like an episode of Midsomer Murders if it tried. www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast www.beer52.com/red www.betterhelp.com/red Theme music composed by Holly-Jane Shears - check out her amazing work at www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Learn more about your ad choices.

This week’s episode sees us delve into the distressing world of terrorism. Few will ever forget the truly horrifying events of 2013. The day a brutal act of terrorism was committed in broad daylight on a busy London street. 25-year-old Lee Rigby, a British army soldier, was slaughtered with a meat cleaver and a large hunting knife by two British-born Islamic jihadists, in a murder that shocked the nation to its very core.

This week, in an episode written by Bethan, we head to Glasgow as we go back in time to May 2008. When detectives discovered two murder victims, just hours apart, on the outskirts of Glasgow, they knew they must have been linked... But were they? Could it really be possible that two women could be murdered in one week, just a couple of miles apart and this not be the work of a serial killer in the making...?

We are heading back to America this week as we take a deep dive into the unsolved murders of renowned rappers and infamous rivals Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G, Biggie Smalls… This is a complex tale which takes us to the very heart of the east coast/ west coast rivalry that dominated rap culture in 1990’s America. Set against a backdrop of gang warfare, where violence and power were the only currencies worth having, this case sees us attempt to answer a question that has plagued the true crime community for a quarter of a century – just who was responsible for the brutal murders of Tupac and Biggie? I was inspired to cover this case after watching 'Last Man Standing: Suge Knight and the Murders of Biggie and Tupac' by acclaimed director Nick Broomfiled. In the film, he explores the role of the police in both Tupac and Biggie’s murders. The film comes up with new evidence supporting the theory that the LAPD were complicit and that they attempted to conceal evidence. It takes a real deep dive into the life and crimes of Suge Knight, his rise and dramatic fall, and I can't recommend it highly enough! Tickets are on sale for the preview event of Last Man Standing now. Head to lastmanstanding.film to find your local cinema. The event is on the 30th June in over 130 cinemas nationwide, and will be followed by a Q&A with director Nick Broomfield and collaborator Pam Brooks, who is an absolute legend in this film!

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.

A note from Mark: This is a case that needs no introduction really. We all know the story of Maddie McCann, right? Of course we do... Ever since Madeleine disappeared in 2007, I have been obsessed with this case. Bethan and I used to spend hours discussing what may have happened to this angelic three year old and I think it's what reignited my childhood fascination with true crime, it's quite possibly why I am here right now, writing this episode description. We have had to split this case into two parts - and still, there is no way we can cover every detail. Part I focuses on the build up to Maddie's disappearance and the immediate aftermath. In Part II we will delve into the various hypothesis surrounding this case... We would have loved to have been able to release both parts today, but in all honesty, we haven't even recorded Part II yet! That will be out next Wednesday. I know you've heard this case covered a thousand times before, but this is our take on it and hopefully we will bring a fresh perspective.

In March 2011, 24 year old Rebecca Coriam was living and working on board the Disney Wonder, an 83,000 tonne cruise ship operated by Disney Cruise Line. Life was good for Rebecca, or at least, it appeared to be. She was popular amongst her colleagues, had a girlfriend who was also a member of the ship's crew and she was getting to travel the world, while being paid to do so! But life took a cruel turn in the early hours of 21st March when Rebecca vanished as the Disney Wonder sailed the Pacific Ocean towards Los Angeles. She has never been seen since... What happened to Rebecca on that fateful voyage? Why have Disney failed to fully co-operate with the authorities? And was Rebecca really as happy as she appeared to be?

This week's episode takes us back to 1972 and to the German city of Munich. 1972 was set to be a momentous year for Germany - as hosts to the Olympic Games, the country was looking forward to repairing its reputation on the world stage following its conduct in World War II, just 27 years earlier. Whilst this would have been the perfect opportunity to cement itself as a country that celebrated peace and joy, it wasn't to be for Germany that year... A terror cell hellbent on retribution put paid to that... In the heart of the Olympic Village, nine Israeli Olympians were taken hostage. What followed is the stuff of nightmares.
