Hometown Homicide is a true crime podcast covering cases from Wales, UK. Join host Jolene Nicole, as she unravels each case, exploring all the facts, theories and often injustice of these victim’s stories.
When 15 year old Janet Commins snuck out to go swimming with her friends on a seemingly normal evening in 1976, she never could have imagined the horror that awaited her - or the aftermath that would span more than 40 years.
