About this episode

It’s four years since tragic 21 year old showjumper Katie Simpson was laid to rest in her native Tynan in County Armagh - a day when her killer Jonathan Creswell, posed as a chief mourner and stood in false grief as she was lowered into her grave.


Nicola speaks to journalist Tanya Fowles about the incredible and ongoing battle for justice for Katie since the events of August 2020. They discuss a 1400-page Police Ombudsman’s report, yet to be released, which details the failings of the PSNI investigators who categorised Katie’s murder as suicide and the unanswered questions which remain around her death.
