If It Bleeds, It Leads

Crime In Lockdown

The rate of beheadings has escalated in lockdown.

So has the amount of mutilations inflicted on victims, but why?

In this epsiode, Professor David Wilson and Emilia Fox sit down to work out what lockdown has done to crime and what we can expect to come to light as lockdown is lifted.

What crimes have gone under the radar while we've all been sat in our homes, not able to see and talk to eachother?

Professor Jane Mockton-Smith, Author of "In Control: Dangerous Relationships and How They End" discusses how coercive control, violent relationships and stalking have all been exacerbated by lockdown. How far out of control can we expect this crime wave to become? Only time will tell.

And Jonathan Stadlen, producer of Netflix hit "American Murder: The Family Nextdoor", joins to explain the process behind getting up close and personal with a killer who annihilated his family and pretended to be innocent on camera, moments after murdering his wife and two children.
