S07E05 | Peter Chapman | The Murder of Ashleigh Hall

In the fifth episode of season 7, I tell the story of Peter Chapman. On October 25, 2009, 32-year-old Peter Chapman kidnapped, raped and murdered 17-year-old Ashleigh Hall and dumped her body in a farmer's field near Sedgefield, County Durham. He met Ashleigh on Facebook after posing as a 19-year-old named Peter Cartwright. The day after the murder, Cleveland Police arrested Chapman in connection with a hit-and-run offence dating back to October 2008. Once inside a police cell, Chapman confessed that he had killed somebody the previous evening and led the police to Ashleigh's body. He was handed a life sentence on March 8, 2010, with a minimum term of 35 years. ⁣⁣For all things British Murders, please visit my website:⁣ https://www.britishmurders.com/⁣ Intro music:⁣ David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'⁣ https://linktr.ee/davidjohnbradymusic⁣ My recording equipment:⁣ Shure SM7B Vocal Microphone Cloud Microphone Cloudlifter CL1 Focusrite Scarlett Solo USB Audio Interface Rode PSA-1 Professional Studio Boom Arm Recorded and Edited in:⁣ Hindenberg PRO References:⁣ www.britishmurders.com/peterchapman/ Learn more about your ad choices.
