The Devil's Disciple: Episode 430
This episode comes from Coventry where thirty year old Thomas Coleman was taking a horticultural course to get the experience needed for a permanent job. There he met a man ten years his junior, Robert Green who was on the same course. The pair struck up a friendship of sorts, although the two men were markedly different people. For instance, Robert Green sported a satanic symbol tattooed across his forehead whilst Thomas Coleman placed great faith in his Christian beliefs – as you can see, not the most obvious of friends.When Green believed the Devil had told him to make a human sacrifice, the man he chose to attack was his quiet and gentle work colleague, Thomas Coleman.Writing Credit: Chris WoodYou can buy Chris's second book, 'Death in the Theatre' here: https://www.amazon.com/Death-Theatre-Chris-Wood/dp/1399009117Find out more about the UK True Crime Podcast:https://uktruecrime.comSupport me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrime Hosted on Acast.

An Entitled Man: Episode 429
It was 9.50 am when paramedics rushed to Queenswood Avenue in Bournemouth after a 999 call from Anita Turner. In a calm tone, she had told the call handler: “My son’s friend is staying with us. This morning I tried to wake both of them up but the girl didn’t wake up. I can’t wake her up.” The ‘friend’ she was referring to was her son’s girlfriend of the past few months, seventeen-year-old Emily Longley. Why had a seemingly fit and healthy Emily died that night?In this episode, we discover once again, how families are not always what they seem, and secrets are held within the four walls.Writing Credit: Tanita MatthewsBuy Tanita's new book today:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Murder-Judith-Roberts-Peter-Sutcliffe/dp/1399080121White Ribbonhttps://www.whiteribbon.org.ukFind out more about the UK True Crime Podcast:https://uktruecrime.comSupport me at Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/UKTrueCrimeSourcesAn Entitled Man - UK True Crime Hosted on Acast.
