Murderous Secrets Of The Moors : Episode...

Always True Crime
About this episode

It was a couple walking their dog who found the human remains in a beautiful part of Dartmoor. This grisly find led to a tricky investigation for police to find out who the person was and just what had happened to them. The answer to this investigation lay not in forensics or other technology, but good old-fashioned police work.
