Ep306: The Double Murder of Annie Curtin.
The tragic life of Annie Curtin is one that you will have never heard of before, and yet, it’s unnervingly familiar. She was an ordinary woman, a wife and a mother, living a regular life who deserved the right to live unharmed and unhurt. Frustratingly, there were laws put in place to protect her, but witnessing failure after failure after failure, many of those same laws are as unfit today as they’ve always been.

As a one-off special, today I'm rolling out a mash-up episode between myself, Mike from Murder Mile, and Taylor & Hannah from the brilliant Drunk Women Solving Crime to create DRUNK MILE. we kick off with a story about the time I was a victim of a crime (sort of), then for the first time in DWSC history Hannah and Taylor have a crime story presented to them by the studio guest as I open a cold case from history which really has "legs". And finish the same way as always with a crime story from a DWSC listener, and if nothing else the team solves the puzzle of what rhymes with 'orange'.

This hostel marks the final attack of a horrific rapist, kidnapper, paedophile, alleged necrophile and an almost triple murderer. It’s a case which caused uproar in a community, destroyed several families, and three lives which would be changed forever, yet it was barely reported and it remains forgotten.
