All Shop, And No Sex - Part 2

Always True Crime
About this episode
We began a two part tale last time here on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, which looked at an armed robbery in a small post office in a rural North Yorkshire village. The second such robbery in almost a year, in what could have been a carbon copy of the first.

Except this one ended in the brutal murder of the postmistress, Diana Garbutt.

Or did it?

The tale is courtesy of Jess Carter, host of the Outlines Podcast, and takes us back to 2011, for this part covering the trial of the person police arrested some three weeks after the robbery, a person they firmly suspected of not quite giving a truthful account of that day.

Her husband, Robin Garbutt.

The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, that some listeners may find disturbing, and or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
