033. Christopher Jefferies - Part 1
In December 2010, Joanna Yeates was found dead near her home resulting in the arrest of her landlord, Christopher Jefferies. His eccentric appearance and mannerisms made him a prime suspect and he found himself condemned by the national media.
044. Christopher Jefferies - Part 2
Despite his release, Jefferies was the subject of continued speculation and hounding by the police and the press for another two months. It was only once detectives identified the real killer, that Jefferies was able to restore his reputation.

Even after Evans' death, the local death toll of women was increasing, leading police to investigate further. Justice would eventually catch up with John Christie. Yet, to this day Timothy Evans' conviction has never been overturned.
077. Colin Stagg - Part 1
In 1992, Rachel Nickel was murdered while out walking with her young son. After the biggest police manhunt in modern history, Colin Stagg was imprisoned for her murder. All the while, the real killer was free to kill and kill again.
088. Colin Stagg - Part 2
The murder trial against Colin Stagg for the murder of Rachel Nickel collapsed due to flawed police evidence. Many still believed Stagg to be the killer. It would be 16 years before a breakthrough in DNA evidence would catch the real killer.
099. Stefan Kiszko - Part 1
In October 1975, 11-year-old Lesley Molseed went missing while walking to town. Within days a local man called Stefan Kiszko was arrested and charged with her murder. With few fighting for his innocence, Stefan would spend 16 years in prison.
1010. Stefan Kiszko - Part 2
Forensic evidence proved that Kiszko could never have committed the murder and that he had been convicted as part of a flawed police investigation. It would be 32 years after Lesley's murder that the real killer, Ronald Castree, would be convicted.
