The Murder Trial
The Murder Trial is on Channel 4, right now.
Wealthy businessman Nat Fraser was convicted of the murder of his wife Arlene, although the body has never been found.
He chillingly told his friend "the bairns will soon forget their mother." This was while she was still only missing, before it turned into a murder enquiry.
A bit like "she moved on". In fact by the time you tot up the arrogance of Nat Fraser, his "find the body and prove we killed her" attitude, the police/sheriff/jury are all "gullible bastards", the family home forensically scoured down to the last inch. Oh I could go on all night here with the list of parallels.
They still got him and nailed him though.

Re: The Murder Trial
I was thinking how coincidental a program like this at this time. Nobody, no real evidence but a conviction non the less.

Re: The Murder Trial
Nat Fraser was convicted without a body and on circumstantial evidence alone, despite the fact in Scotland you can reach a verdict of "Not proven"
Totally different in PT from what we have learned over the past 7 years.
Circumstantial evidence amounts to nothing, 88% match to blood means nothing, and what did the prosecutor say
" Show me a body"
That case was Scotland, this one id Portugal

Re: The Murder Trial
Does "gullible bastards" in Scotland translate into "f**king t*ssers" in scouse?

I've been watching a lot of real life crime documentaries on YouTube and so many convictions are secured with circumstantial evidence alone.

I apologise for that, what i mean't was does it translate into that by ONE particular person known as Kate McCann.

Re: The Murder Trial
No, "gullible bastards" would be a better description for Lorraine Kelly, Antonella Lazyarse, Jim Gamble and Andy Redwood.

Re: The Murder Trial
Thank you Jean for your courteous reply, was not expecting an apology just an understanding that not all Liverpool people act like that moron and poor excuse of a mother.

Re: The Murder Trial
thanks for bringing this to my intention. Unable to sleep so watching it now.
I would love more than anything for the case of the Mccann's to be tested in court.

Did Hector Dick murder Arlene Fraser?
the farmer ;friend', hector dick is a bit suspicious, burning and crushing the car.
I wonder if he had more involvement, which included the disposal of the body, as he knew quite a bit of what 'supposedly' happened, with regard to burning of the body and grinding up of teeth etc.
Then the talk of his 'steamer' on the farm for the meal industry. I wonder what he did do!

Re: The Murder Trial
It certainly isn't a straightforward case as far as there being more than one suspect. Originally there was a third man charged.

Both he and the delightfully named Hector Dick had the charges against them dropped at the first trial in 2003 and he died in 2006.

Re: The Murder Trial
Its local belief that poor Arlene ended up in the rendering plant. There was also the case of Muriel Mckay, the wife of one of Murdoch's editors. She disappeared after a kidnap went bad and the body was never found. Again the supposition was that she was chopped up and fed to the pigs on the Hosein brothers' farm.Loopdaloop wrote:the farmer ;friend', hector dick is a bit suspicious, burning and crushing the car.

Re: The Murder Trial
Yes, the McKay case was very famous. I think that it was mainly due to that one that, in all later kidnapping for ransom cases (not that there have been many in the U K), there has been a news blackout until the victim has been released to avoid spooking the kidnappers.

It wasn't quite the first murder without a body trial but there certainly hadn't been many before then.
