Hell and Gone Murder Line: Caroline Glac...

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

It was around midnight on Sunday August 25, 1996, and 14-year-old Caroline Glachan was out walking on a path by the River Leven in Bonhill, Scotland. She told a friend she was on her way to a date. 

Caroline's curfew was 2 am. But she never made it home. In the morning, her mother woke up, alarmed. She started calling Caroline’s friends, but no one had seen her. So she called the police, and they immediately started searching for Caroline. 

It didn’t take them long to find her. Later that day, August 25, just after 4 pm, her body was found floating in the river. 

Almost thirty years later, her killers were finally convicted. 

If you have a case you’d like Catherine Townsend to look into, you can reach out to the Hell and Gone Murder Line at 678-744-6145.
