*Please read description before listening* - The Adam Britton Case: Animal Cruelty, Criminal Behaviour & The Warning Signs We Can't Ignore 30.06.2026 1год 26хвContent Warning: This episode discusses animal cruelty and contains some non-graphic but distressing descriptions of animal abuse.We understand that this topic will be too upsetting for some listeners, and we completely respect that choice. However, as our guest Mark Randell from the Naturewatch Foundation explains, there is an important reason not to ignore cases like this. Animal cruelty thrives in silence. By confronting these crimes, we help ensure they are acknowledged, victims are not forgotten, offenders are held accountable, and pressure continues to build for stronger legislation, better enforcement and meaningful change.Following the recording of this episode, Seeing Red made a donation to the Naturewatch Foundation in support of their work protecting animals and campaigning for better welfare laws. If you'd like to support them too, you can donate here: Donate to Naturewatch FoundationTo learn more about the Naturewatch Foundation and the work they do around the world, visit Naturewatch Foundation.For this week's episode, Bethan is away, so I'm joined by Mark Randell from the Naturewatch Foundation, a former senior police detective who has spent years investigating animal abuse and campaigning to improve animal welfare around the world.Together, we examine one of the most disturbing criminal cases we've ever covered.Adam Britton was internationally respected as a crocodile expert and wildlife conservationist. Behind that carefully cultivated public image, however, investigators uncovered a catalogue of horrific offending that shocked even experienced detectives.In this episode, we explore how Britton managed to conceal his crimes for so long, what the investigation revealed, the psychology and behavioural warning signs discussed during the case, and the wider relationship between animal cruelty and other forms of serious offending.With Mark Randell's unique experience investigating these offences, we also discuss why animal abuse should never be dismissed as a lesser crime, and how cases like this can inform safeguarding and criminal justice.Listener discretion is strongly advised.http://www.youtube.com/@seeingredtruecrimepodcastwww.patreon.com/seeingredpodcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtwwww.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Hosted on Acast.

The Wrongfully Convicted Husband? The Murder of Christine Morton | Texas True Crime 26.05.2026 54хвThis week on Seeing Red, we travel back to Texas in the 1980s to examine a case that began with the brutal murder of Christine Morton — and led to one of the most shocking miscarriages of justice in modern American criminal history.Her husband, Michael Morton, quickly became the focus of the investigation and was convicted of her murder. But years later, serious questions began to emerge about what had really happened, and whether the wrong man had been sent to prison while the real killer remained free.We discuss the investigation, the evidence, the conviction, and the extraordinary fight that would eventually expose devastating failures within the justice system. A story of loss, wrongful conviction, and a search for the truth that took decades.www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtwwww.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Hosted on Acast.

Murder by Remote Control 28.04.2026 59хвPainkillers. Cold medicine. Morphine, if you're Mark! Something to take the edge off a headache.In 1982, people across Chicago did exactly that — and some of them never got back up.This week on Seeing Red, we’re talking about the case that changed everything: the Chicago Tylenol murders. Cyanide-laced capsules. Random victims. A killer who never had to meet the people they murdered — just quietly tamper with bottles and put them back on the shelf.But it didn’t stop there.Because once the fear was out in the world, someone else saw an opportunity.We also look at the copycat killings that followed — including a case where “random” poisonings were anything but, and innocent people died to cover up a far more personal murder.This is murder without warning, without motive you can see, and without a suspect we can name.So… how safe is that bottle in your bathroom cabinet?www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtwwww.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Hosted on Acast.

Mr Zig Zag: The Disappearance of Jo Ramsden 21.04.2026 1год 2хвIn April 1991, 21-year-old Jo Ramsden disappeared from the Dorset town of Bridport, a place she knew well and where her routine rarely changed. When she didn’t return home, concern quickly turned into a desperate search.Witnesses reported seeing Jo with a man in a distinctive zig-zag patterned jumper — a sighting that would become central to the case.Despite strong suspicions around a known offender, no one has ever been charged with Jo’s disappearance. More than three decades later, the identity of “Mr Zig Zag” — and what really happened to Jo — remains unknown, although we have strong suspicions...www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtwwww.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Hosted on Acast.

Nanny Doss: The Giggling Killer 15.04.2026 1год 24хвThis week on Seeing Red, we meet a woman who looked like she’d stepped straight out of a 1950s love story — but left a trail of bodies behind her.Nanny Doss was charming, chatty… and deadly. With a fixation on love and happily-ever-afters, she approached marriage the same way Bethan approaches an all you can eat buffet — aggressively and without hesitation — each one ending in a strangely convenient death.But it didn’t stop there. Her victims weren’t just the men she married — family members, too, found themselves in the path of her quiet, calculated cruelty. Using poison as her weapon of choice, she slipped death into everyday life with chilling ease, all while keeping that unsettling, ever-present smile.In this episode, we unravel the bizarre, darkly absurd story of a woman who treated murder like a means to an end… and sometimes, disturbingly, like a joke.www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtwwww.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Hosted on Acast.

Priceless: The Murder of Michael Griffiths 07.04.2026 1год 10хвMichael Griffiths dealt in antiques — rare, highly sought-after pieces. But in 2013, he became the target of something far less refined: a gang of burglars chasing a quick payday. What followed wasn’t just a robbery gone wrong — it was brutal, calculated, and left behind a trail of evidence as chaotic as the crime itself.This week, we dig into how greed turned deadly… and why some people will kill for fast cash.www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcasthttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtwwww.seeingredpodcast.co.ukTheme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag Hosted on Acast.
