This is an extraordinary case, full of twists and turns. I knew this murder story before and watching it again makes me admire the perseverance of the detectives even more.

[@sandinielsen4401]

It is amazing that no matter how well fraud is committed, that only a small thread can unravel,all. Well done to the police force.

[@mikewerner3797]

Wow that is some truly amazing detective work and forensic work! Unbelievable

[@cynthiapressley8455]

Thank you for the upload. Oh yeah! I remember this case from Forensic Files. Very interesting murder investigation.

[@fistyann8434]

Great story, so twisted and depraved!

[@Kim-mz8co]

He nearly got away with murder because it never occurred to investigators living by the sea that a body does not sink to the bottom of the ocean without being weighted and that they should inquire about a weight.

[@johnburns4017]

Excellent point. But, it never said why the police went back to the fisherman. Why so late?

[@Magical_Thinking]

Thanks for posting crime stories from the UK. We can’t get them in the United States.

[@amazingsupergirl7125]

Really? In America and I’ve sure seen a lot of crime stories in Western Europe. KZbin baby. KZbin.

[@NimishP]

A perfect plot for Agatha Christie.

[@robyngillon4439]

Gee this was mind-blowing thanks from Australia 👍🦘

[@ElisPalmer]

This is a fascinating case only to be solved by a team of great minds~

[@helenaville5939]

And a lucky break. Remember they had given up and put the case in cold storage until he knocked by accident on the wrong door and the elderly couple inside revealed important info that revived the case.

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

One minute 23 seconds in and then I realised……it’s THAT case, the one with the guy in the fishing net, the watch etc. I’ve seen and read so many different stories about this crime, but I’ll never forget the very first time I heard about it. An absolutely gripping tale, it’s almost a real life Agatha Christie, “who done it”. I’m excited to see this version, from the perspective of the experts involved. Just fascinating 🧐 Thanks

[@aridyaacob3172]

Oh it’s that case. I won’t watch then. Thanks.

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

So she’s his daughter, she’s 20 with 2 kids and one of those is 3 which by my calculations made her 16 at the time of conception. Um, let’s arrest him for that!!!

[@marciam6224]

He is allowed to return to Canada to serve his sentence to be close to his family??? WTH kind of punishment is that? People need to stop feeling sorry for and coddling CRIMINALS!!! The families of the men he murdered don't have the luxury of being close to their loved ones!!! This whole world is going to hell in a hand basket!!

[@eccIefechan]

And now he's free...

[@olgam601]

My respects to this investigators.

[@batmansymbol3645]

The case was cold...until a nosy neighbor spilled her guts....

[@mmsizzlak]

I've seen this story elsewhere but it still gets me every time lol... Talk about KARMA....I wonder if they really were going to close the case before mistakenly going to the wrong--or maybe right--house?? Either way, the fact that the visit unfolded the way it did and he got caught as an eventuality was still wild

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

Really unbelievable - the father-daughter thing was a shocker as well!

[@ruelvillafranca1724]

Reader's Digest

[@joeylamuel5828]

I will never understand why Ron and Elaine allowed rubber stamps of their signatures to be made. Red flag! Also, it is a wonder Elaine wasn't murdered as well.

[@lilg2300]

maybe she would have been next. maybe not, because she wasn't anymore together and in close contact with the victim. most important was to kill him as he was using his identity.

[@jodyssey9921]

I love Canada, was born here, lived here my whole life, but I can't imagine being from somewhere else and having it high on my list of places to visit. 😂

[@justlooking4771]

Right? I'm from Ohio and couldn't imagine anyone just hoping one day to get there lol! 🙌😅🤷🏻‍♀️

[@joeylamuel5828]

People want to go places . It's a different story if you've lived somewhere your entire life. I myself, would like to see Halifax, not necessarily live there but visit one time.

[@seshadri.j]

Disgusting crime from all angles

[@user-sw2lv3zp6o]

I watched this a few years ago. Extraordinary case.

[@ClassicRiki]

I wish the American producers would learn that in England we have CSE’s not CSI’s; examiners not investigators. Neither investigate anything…they examine. The investigation is conducted by investigators and forensic examination purely examines the scientific facts without chasing a particular suspect.

[@johnoneill7947]

Devonians where shocked to the core by this case

[@peterbradshaw8018]

In contract law this is called mistake. Could never truly understand it as two major text books have differing definitions.

[@DMRVirtual--David]

So walker is both father and granfather to the children of sheena.

[@helenaville5939]

Reminds me of Ray Stevens' song I'm My Own Grandpa.

[@johnburns4017]

Didn't he claim the father was Platt?

[@joeylamuel5828]

He did.​@@johnburns4017

[@amazingsupergirl7125]

So in England, you only wear English made clothes? In America that’d be irrelevant because every item could be from a different country. We carry lots of Canadian brands, especially for outdoor clothing.

[@Kari.F.]

I don't think the important thing here was if the brands were American or Canadian. My guess is that the clothes here were labeled "Made in Canada/America". Most clothes of Canadian and American brands are manufactured in low cost countries, just like most European brands. If his clothes were labeled "Made in Canada/America", there's a good chance he didn't buy them in Europe.

[@BearIslandComics]

Unintentional comedy @29:39 🤣

[@AltEgo.]

Okay this is about the 20th time I heard these start with “it was july” and what’s worse is that the date is usually right before or after my bday…

[@monettenucum367]

Thank u "Rolex" watch..

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

40:00 till 41:00 ish. That conversation, those words and emotions the victim expressed on the yacht, in the moments before he was murdered, did those come from Davis/Walker or did someone just decide to add a bit of incredibly emotive “conversation”? Either way, it’s horribly horribly tragic. What do you think?

[@samplatt6778]

Awful, Ronald was my grandads cousin, he spoke about it to Mr as a child but hekd back the more extreme details, I watched this and felt so sad thst this happened to a relative even though I never met him

[@BearIslandComics]

That’s gotta be the smallest sailboat in the history of murder

[@lisamariejg641]

@Bear Island Comics 😂

[@herbertcaliste5601]

And he was released from prison this year.

[@peterolbrisch1653]

This documentary has "actual" footage, as if there's another kind.

[@nickbryant91]

Forensic files brought me here

[@ClassicRiki]

Especially at that time…England wasn’t an intelligent place for him to commit murder. Our scientific ability and the fact that we had the very first official police force means they’re pretty good at it lol. The only intelligent part (though he clearly didn’t think he’d be found out so it’s not exactly intelligent if it’s an accident) is the fact that he wouldn’t get the death penalty like some places.

[@Bengal-BoyRyu]

The daughter should have done jail time, she was just as guilty. She used another woman's identity and gave the children a fake last name and the woman that she stole the identity from had kids under her name and security number. She stole from the government so who care if she made a please deal. She still deserved jail time.

[@erinabraham9248]

nope. you're simply wrong.

[@TahtahmesDiary]

Seriously? Her father was a literal killer and she had 2 small kids and nowhere to go and he’s taking incestual pictures as well as likely r*ped her. How you have no empathy for that is mind boggling. Stealing from the gov isn’t a worse crime than murder and incest and I’m sure the gov was very grateful for her help locking him up. On the run since 15 who knows how long he was abusing and coercing her! Those pictures he took with her are bad enough!

[@joeylamuel5828]

@@erinabraham9248 Well, she at least deserved deportation. She did use a false ID to obtain benefits illegally, and those children were used in the deception.

[@williamlane7160]

I smell incest

[@davidjohn8795]

What a wrong un

[@freakphysics]

Such a strange production style

[@AD270479]

Literally 1 min in to a 52 min video & get hit with an advert already? Continue watching I shall not...

[@williamlane7160]

he was still wearing his rolex watch That was the critical evidence, period,

[@Vertigotheatre1]

The acting reconstructions are so bad, and so not needed.

[@nadagabri5783]

The cheap re-enactments make it difficult to watch.

[@badsolja1]

Who’s here from mr ballen ?

[@schizm01473]

Love this series, but why the heck is the re-enactment actor of the court judge and lawyers wearing wigs in the 1700s style. They aren't doing that over in UK still are they? o.O

[@ragefilledvergin]

they are you tool....

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

Yes, they still wear wigs. Come over sometime to the old country!

[@Kari.F.]

I believe they still wear wigs in court in most of the Commonwealth countries, Australia, Canada and India included. It's a tradition from the good old days of the grand, British empire.

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

@@Kari.F. Yes, legal procedures were a big contribution made by Great Britain during those far off days!

[@helenaville5939]

Here in Ireland they all still wear wigs. In fact there is a shop beside the 'Four Courts' in Dublin that specializes in making and selling them. Prices start at around 1,000 Euros.

[@rosenguyen6551]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@moeru1994]

Why didnt Fake Plat just give up his identity when real Plat came back and turn back to Davies Identity?

[@grayb7420]

Because he had kidnapped his daughter, impregnated her and absconded with millions of dollars stolen from investors. That is the reason he needed Platts name and more importantly his life.

[@eightyeight8194]

The money. Greed

[@alk158]

His old identity wasn't an English citizen but another Canadian.

[@joeylamuel5828]

He was running out of identities. He was running out of cards to play.

This is not a new story!! I have already watched this several times on the show called, "Forensic Files".

[@monicascott2354]

Who said it was new?

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

This is a much better programme on the case though. Reason it is covered is that it is a British series! (Also the reason why it is better done here than by Forensic Files!)

[@sureiamboo]

Great that they protected those babies from knowing of incest. What a story!
