In 1890, a young machinist named Walter James Lyons committed a shocking act of violence on the streets of Plumstead, southeast London. What drove this 20-year-old to murder a decorated soldier in broad daylight? The answer lies in a moment of rage, a clash of Victorian morality, and a mother’s decision that scandalised an entire community. Leaving the Old Bailey to decide: was Walter truly a killer, or just a son pushed beyond his limits? 💡 Support me on Patreon to get ad-free episodes https://www.patreon.com/prashsmurdermap 💰 Make a one-off contribution Every little bit helps!

In 2009, 59-year-old Elena Tomova retreated to her countryside villa in Vlado Trichkov, Bulgaria, seeking peace—only to find evidence of an intruder. That evening, she unknowingly invited her own killer, Mihail Leshtarski, inside, offering him food and shelter. The transient drifter repaid her kindness with brutal murder, strangling Elena, mutilating her body, and defacing her home with crosses. Afterward, he lived in a cave until winter forced him into the home of an old cellmate, where he attacked the man and his wife. For four months, he hid in their attic, drilling holes in the walls and ceilings to spy on them, threatening to kill them if they went to the police. A DNA match from Elena’s fingernails finally linked him to the murder, exposing his long history of violence and crime. Listen to Our New Podcast: Curious Britain!

59 | Jack the Ripper Suspect Profile: Aaron Kosminski, The DNA and the Shawl 32:17

6 weeks назад32:17

32:17

In this episode of my Jack the Ripper suspect investigations, we explore Aaron Kosminski, a prominent suspect in the case. New DNA evidence, particularly from a shawl linked to Catherine Eddowes, allegedly connects Kosminski to the murders, with a 100% match to a descendant of his. However, doubts about the shawl’s authenticity and the limitations of mitochondrial DNA have raised scepticism. We also look at the role of Russell Edwards, who purchased the shawl, and examine the psychiatric records of Kosminski, along with other possible suspects like Nathan Kaminski. Could we finally uncover the true identity of Jack the Ripper? Thanks to author Karl Coppack and Adam from UK True Crime for lending their voices.

Welcome to another episode of Prash's Murder Map . Today, I’m doing something a little different. Alongside hosting this podcast, I’m also an author, with several true crime books to my name, including the Murder Casebook series and a forthcoming book on wartime killers Karl Hulten and Betty Jones, due for release later this year. In this special episode, I’m excited to share a chapter from Murder Casebook Volume 1 , narrated by acclaimed British stage and screen actor Mark Rice-Oxley. Death at 36,000 Feet tells the little-known story of a man so desperate that he was willing to endanger countless lives to achieve his goal. This free chapter is an excerpt from Murder Casebook Volume 1: 12 Shocking True Crime Cases , available on Audible in audiobook format, as well as in e-book and paperback. The book explores some of the most chilling true crime cases in history, from serial killers and violent gangs to poisonings and cannibalism, revealing the stories of the victims, the criminals, and the investigations that brought them to justice. You can listen to the full book on Audible: 🔗 Audible US 🔗 Audible UK If you’re interested in my latest book, co-written with my wife Melissa, which tells the true story of Karl Hulten and Betty Jones—wartime London’s infamous “Cleft Chin Murder” case—visit prashganendran.com/the-cleft-chin-murder I’ll be back soon with another case, but for now, let’s dive into this extraordinary true crime story.…

Jack the Ripper’s identity remains one of true crime’s greatest mysteries. In this episode, we explore Whitechapel butcher Jacob Levy, a compelling suspect in the murders of the Canonical Five. Could he be a better suspect than the likes of Charles Lechmere, Montague Druitt, Kosminsky and others? Levy’s life was steeped in tragedy and turmoil. Living near key murder sites, his violent tendencies, mental instability, and descent into paranoia following a syphilis diagnosis raise chilling questions. Could his butchery skills and local knowledge tie him to the Ripper’s gruesome crimes? Was Levy the true face behind the world’s most notorious serial killer?

In the summer of 1887, Victorian London’s East End, fraught with poverty and unrest, became the setting for a bizarre and senseless true crime. Miriam Angel, an impoverished Jewish immigrant who was six months pregnant, was found poisoned in a locked room, her body lying on the bed. Incredibly, a fellow tenant in the same lodging house, Israel Lipski, was discovered hiding beneath it. The case, with its puzzling lack of motive, divided the public. Lipski’s infamy lingered, with his name even becoming a racial slur—shouted just minutes before Elizabeth Stride’s murder during Jack the Ripper’s reign of terror a year later.

In 1892, the dismembered body of Annie Pritchard was discovered in a ditch in East Haddon, England, leading to an investigation that linked her death to Andrew MacRae, a man with whom she had an affair. MacRae, who had been living with his wife and children in Birmingham, had moved to Northampton with Annie, where they set up a home, and he eventually murdered her after she gave birth to their child. MacRae was convicted of murder and hanged in January 1893, while Annie was buried in East Haddon Cemetery, her grave marked by a headstone funded by public subscription. But questions remain....was that really Annie Pritchard's body? and was Andrew MacRae the killer? Prefer to watch the video version of this episode?
