  • Lord Lucan: Murder, Mystery & Disappearance - Part 1
    Step inside one of the UK’s most infamous murder mysteries in this gripping two-part special of True Criminals. Hosted by award-winning journalists Helen Fospero and Martin Brunt, we uncover the shocking events of November 7, 1974—the night Sandra Rivett was brutally murdered and Lord Lucan, one of Britain’s most notorious aristocrats, vanished without a trace.In Part 1, we take you deep into the crime scene in Belgravia, London, and re-examine every chilling detail of that fateful night. You’ll hear an exclusive, minute-by-minute account of how Richard John Bingham, 7th Earl of Lucan—a wealthy playboy and professional gambler drowning in debt and marital turmoil—became the prime suspect in a savage attack that left nanny Sandra Rivett dead and Lady Veronica Lucan fighting for her life.Through powerful insights from investigative journalist Glen Campbell, who has pursued the Lucan mystery for nearly three decades, we reveal shocking new perspectives on the case. We trace Lucan’s desperate escape, the blood-soaked discovery in his borrowed car, and explore explosive theories of a high-society cover-up involving his influential friends—business magnate Sir James Goldsmith and casino owner John Aspinall.Was Lord Lucan murdered, did he flee abroad, or was he hidden by a powerful network? Join us as we unravel the evidence, secrets, and unanswered questions behind the disappearance that continues to haunt Britain to this day.............................The Search For My Mother's Murderer. : A son's hunt for the British aristocrat Lord Lucan.Available herehttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Lord-Lucan-Search-Mothers-Murderer-ebook/dp/B0DV3THQG3Follow Us:Instagram: @true.criminalsSubscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@True-CriminalsSupport Us:If you love the podcast, consider supporting us on Patreon for exclusive content:https://www.patreon.com/c/TrueCriminalsConnect with Martin Brunt:Twitter: @skymartinbruntDiscover more about Martin’s career and the cases he’s covered by reading his book: No One Got Cracked Over the Head for No Reason: Dispatches from a Crime Reporter.Read Here: https://amzn.eu/d/g1WisSYConnect with Helen Fospero:Instagram: @helenfosperoCheck out Helen’s podcast, The Convex Conversation:Listen Here. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-convex-conversation/id1510209575Credits:True Criminals is produced by Audio Bleach Global.Visit www.audiobleachglobal.com/truecriminals for more information.Executive Producer: Lee MannProducer: Russell BarnesAudio Production: Andrew ChappellMusic Composition: Chap MannequinArtwork: Bleached Hosted on Acast.
