S5E10 – From Basilicata to Bournemouth: The Crimes of Danilo Restivo (Part 2)
Manage episode 502715379 series 3451640
In this week’s episode, Dee and Isla pick up where we left off in Part 1, following the chilling trail of Italian serial killer Danilo Restivo.
After the disappearance of 16-year-old Elisa Claps in Potenza in 1993, Restivo managed to evade justice for years - protected by police incompetence, corruption, and his powerful family connections. But nearly a decade later, another brutal murder in England finally forced the world to pay attention.
In Part 2, we dive into the horrific 2002 murder of Heather Barnett in Bournemouth, found by her children in a crime scene that bore Restivo’s disturbing signature.
It’s a case of cruelty, incompetence, and finally, long-delayed justice, spanning from southern Italy to the English seaside.
