On August 4, 2002, best friends Jessica and Holly enjoyed a day together after being apart for 2 weeks. At 8 pm, Holly's mother goes to check on the girls. They had disappeared.


After 2 weeks of what would be one of the U.K.'s largest searches, the two girl's bodies were found. So was the monster who had killed them.

Join Jen and Cam as we discuss the horrible murders of two sweet, young girls.

I'd like to give a huge shout out to the following books. Without them, I couldn't have done this episode correctly. Although any words I mispronunciations are all my fault. :) I strongly recommend all of these if you want a much deeper dive into this horrible case. Warning: grab a box of tissues and prepare to be angry.
