Each episode the technical quality improves enormously. Your writing has always been first-class of course, and your narration is superb - your voice is perfect for it. Well done.

Shotton wasn't stupid, he was a highly educated man with a very good job. His job took him all over the country so do you really believe that if he wanted to murder Mamie and get rid of the body he would have hidden the body a couple of miles from his home? He could have taken the body anywhere in the country and thrown it into the sea - after first removing anything that would identify her. It would never have been identified.

@TheyGotAwayWithMurder4 жыл бұрын
Many thanks, Paul. Yes, there must have been a good chance of this given a fair wind - after all, the cause of death could not be ascertained by 1961. Of course, if the body had been found in 1920 it might have been a different story - the cause of death might have been shown to have been strangulation, or to some wound which had not damaged any of the bones... But if the remains had been found at any point at which cause of death could not be determined he could have claimed that it was an accident. In 1961 the coroner D R James directed the 7 man jury quite heavily towards murder, saying it was inconceivable that he would have gone to such lengths to hide her body if it was an accident. I think it is conceivable - in panic and given the terrible situation he had placed himself in.

Being on a rating and review on ITunes, Apple Podcast, Stitcher drives ratings and growth which then translates to huge increase in KZbin Subscribers in addition to Word of Mouth growth It's also partly attributed to KZbin's Algorithm no doubt and having the algorithm suggest "They Got Away With Murder" (as was the case with me) to subscribers of other big true crime podcasts like Casefile, Briefcase, Curious World, Obsolete Oddity, Criminally Listed, Crime Reel and Unresolved. I notice those Pod Casters network off each other as well; so to speak to expand their viewership. I am going to continue to spread the word but to really drive up subscribers, the other methods truly drive growth from what I can see; especially if your videos get picked up by the KZbin Algorithm and then get suggested to the hundreds of thousands of True Crime Subscribers.

Are police not required to release bodies/bones to some sort of family?

Another very well crafted coverage of a long-forgotten crime. I think that there is little doubt concerning the guilt of Shotton and the evidence is surely more than just speculative; ultimately though a modern day defence barrister would still feel compelled to label the evidence as circumstantial. I can well imagine Edward Marshall Hall having a field day with this one. Now that DNA profiling has evolved to such a comprehensive level it would be rather easy to exhume the grave of Mamie Stuart and confirm her identity through testing mitochondrial DNA or genealogical profiling using a Paragon Nanolab facility. It's amazing also what arm-chair sleuths ponder over, taking myself as an example. It's clear to me that Shotton had sufficient time to settle on a good disposal site and must have reconnoitred that mine shaft beforehand.50 feet is quite a long way down and, as you implied, only a desperate man would venture down its depths. How he made the descent and ascent was something I've thought about for a little while. Being of slight build and 6 months shy of turning 40 years old he surely had to use something akin to a rope ladder rather than a normal piece of rope to make numerous ascents through an 18 inch wide aperture. But anchoring the 'ladder' at ground level posed a serious challenge as failure to do so properly may well have resulted in him imprisoning himself below ground; UNLESS HE HAD AN ACCOMPLICE. You will remember that there were 3 pot-holers present at the discovery of the body and it's certain that at least one of them would have stayed above ground to effect a rescue if required. I struck me too that even though he knew the lay of the land subterrain he chose not to push the body parts, (totalling 6 according to pathologist Bernard Knight), down into the hole but must have taken the time to LOWER them down gently. The reason I state this is that the skeleton upon examination showed no damage other than the obvious saw marks from dissection. If they had fallen from a height of 50 feet then numerous fractures and other significant damage would have been visible; but evidently none was found. Just my thoughts. Nick Harvey.

Most of the time when you hear someone talk with such a large vocabulary they sound really pretentious but his use of the English language is a joy to hear and his use of words you rarely ever hear adds so much to the story. I use to listen to a lot of books on tape and his voice is perfect for that. Ive been listening to his stories every morning for a week on my hour drive to work and im going to be disappointed when ive gone through all of his stories.

Not sure my friends in Penarth would like their town described as a suburb of Cardiff, but perhaps it was classified as such back then. I'm familiar with this story and your telling of it is very good. Thank you

Thank you, Judy - perhaps I am wrong in describing it thus... I used to work for many years in Cardiff Bay, and would often walk over to Penarth in the summer - I always thought of it as part of Cardiff! But as I think of it now, you may well be right!

For once I don't spend time watching something and end up feeling that it was, no matter how good sometimes, "a waste of time". It is as though I've read a fine bit of writing that is moving. In a world full of daily accounts of vile murders of countless people: singularly or in groups, you remind us of the singular importance of just one human life. Kudos!

I’ve noticed that the photographs of many of the main characters in these stories make them appear much older than they really were. Perhaps it’s the elegant styles of dress and hats? In any case, another wonderful episode. Thank you!
