Episode 67: Jackie English Part Two
#67
11/09/2022

This week we continue with the Jackie English case, exploring the aftermath of this already tragic and mysterious murder. New witnesses will come forward, proposing new suspects that may or may not fit the bill. By the end of this the lines between fact and fiction will definitely be blurred, and we very well may be left with more questions than answers. But although this case is 53 years cold, the London community still very much believes this case can and will be solved one day, and the solving of this case could potentially mean the solving of many more...


Episode 66: Jackie English Part One
#66
11/02/2022

This is one of the biggest cases we will cover in the Bleeding London series. There is so much information, so many witnesses, and so many people involved (or wanting to be involved) in the case that this one definitely sends us down the rabbit hole. This case had to be split into two parts, as there was just too much to cover in one episode. Let’s dive into part one of Jackie English, hers is a name you are going to remember after this.

Episode 63: True Crime Ethics
#63
10/12/2022

This episode is a super loosey goosey style one where we’re having an open discussion about the ethics of true crime. We figured it might be worth while to re-ground ourselves to remain respectful and remind us all about how to approach true crime in a non-offensive way. So we’re talking about some of the Do’s and Don’ts of true crime, how to remain respectful to victims and victims families, and how to go about maintaining your love of true crime without being disrespectful to those involved in the crimes discussed. We hope you enjoy this epi...

In Part One we reviewed the backgrounds of Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono and follows their timeline up until encountering their first victim.

The trial called many witnesses, put forth many contradicting theories, and let out some pretty scandalous secrets about Peter AND Christine. Join us as we go down the rabbit hole with this one.

Episode 52: Georgia Jackson

This week we are covering the brutal murder of Georgia Jackson in 1966. This crime shook the small town of Aylmer, Ontario, and even more so the Jehovah’s Witness community in southwestern Ontario. With Aylmer being just 30 minutes southeast of London, there is a lot of speculation about how this case could be connected to some of the London cases we will be discussing in future Bleeding London episodes.

This week we’re concluding the incredible survival story of 3 relentlessly resilient women who made their way through hell and back. We only hope to do justice to these three women. This is the story of the Cleveland Kidnappings that occurred to Michelle Knight, Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus. Although this is a survival story, there is a lot of very heavy content to get through before the good part. These three women go on to help change the world for the better and are a shining example of how to turn a horrific situation into an opportunity.
