The Drugs Mule : Episode 525
<p>Melissa Reid and Michaella McCollum became known around the world as the "Peru Two" after they were caught trying to smuggle 11 kilograms of cocaine out of Peru.</p><br><p>They said they had been drawn into the operation by an organised crime gang and felt they couldn't back out, while others argued they had knowingly taken a huge risk in return for money. Their arrest made headlines across the globe and sparked years of debate about where the line lies between exploitation and personal responsibility. In this episode, I look beyond the headlines to explore how two teenagers ended up at the centre of one of the most talked-about drug trafficking cases of recent times, and why their story still divides opinion today.</p><br><p>I release episodes of the UK True Crime podcast every Tuesday and Friday, so please do join me again on Tuesday for the next regular episode and do join me on Sunday for my interview with top forensic psychologist Kerry Daynes.</p><br><p><strong>Support me at Patreon:</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrime" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrime</a></p><br><p><strong>Watch my YouTube Channel</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime/videos" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@Adam-uktruecrime/videos</a></p><br><p><strong>Get All The News First - Subscribe To My Newsletter</strong></p><p><a href="https://uktruecrime.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://uktruecrime.com</a></p><br><p><strong>Join UK True Crime Facebook Group</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/groups/UKTrueCrime</a></p><p><br></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

The Dunblane School Shooting: The Tragedy That Changed Britain's Gun Laws | Ep. 261
<p>On the morning of March 13, 1996, children arrived at Dunblane Primary School expecting an ordinary Wednesday. Parents waved goodbye at the school gates, teachers prepared for the day ahead, and a Primary 1 class gathered in the gymnasium for a PE lesson. Within minutes, that normal school morning would become one of the darkest days in British history, devastating a close-knit Scottish community and changing the country's gun laws forever.</p><br><p>The Dunblane shooting claimed the lives of sixteen young children and their teacher, Gwen Mayor, in what remains the deadliest school shooting in UK history. In the years that followed, the tragedy prompted the Cullen Inquiry, the Snowdrop Campaign, and sweeping changes to firearms legislation across Great Britain. Nearly thirty years later, Dunblane continues to be remembered not only for the horror of that day, but for the extraordinary dignity, resilience and compassion shown by the families, survivors and wider community.</p><br><p>In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the Dunblane shotting in detail. We explore the background of gunman Thomas Hamilton, the warning signs and missed opportunities before the attack, the events of March 13, 1996, and the lives of the sixteen children and their teacher, ensuring they are remembered as people rather than simply victims. We also look at the emergency response and how the town of Dunblane continues to honour those whose lives were so tragically cut short. We also reflect on the experience of survivor and future two-time Wimbledon champion Andy Murray, and how his success helped shine a more positive light on Dunblane in the years that followed.</p><br><p>If you have been affected by the content discuss within this episode, please consider using one of the below resources for help:</p><br><p>Samaritans (UK & ROI): 116 123 or <a href="https://samaritans.org" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">samaritans.org</a></p><p>Childline (under 19s): 0800 1111 or <a href="https://childline.org.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">childline.org.uk</a></p><p>Shout (text support): Text SHOUT to 85258</p><br><p>Exclusive content:</p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/britishmurders" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a> - Ad Free, Early Access, Exclusive Episodes</p><br><p>Follow the show:</p><p><a href="https://audioalways.lnk.to/BritishMurders" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">British Murders with Stuart Blues</a></p><br><p>Disclaimer:</p><p>The case discussed in this podcast episode is real and represents the worst day in many people's lives.
