The Fred West Tapes: with special guest Howard Sounes
This week on True Criminals, we’re joined once again by long-time friend of the show, bestselling author and true crime expert Howard Sounes, as he explores the infamous murders committed by Fred and Rose West.
Howard, who broke major stories on the investigation and coined the term House of Horrors, talks about the hit Netflix documentary Fred & Rose West: A British Horror Story and his chilling new book, The Fred West Tapes: Secrets of the Fred & Rose West Murder Investigation.
Nearly thirty years after Fred West’s death and Rose West’s conviction, their shocking crimes continue to fascinate true crime fans worldwide. In this episode, Howard reveals never-before-heard testimony, new evidence from police interviews, and insights into the twisted minds of serial killers Fred and Rose West. From the burial site at 25 Cromwell Street to the devastating impact on the victims’ families, this conversation explores one of the most infamous cases in British true crime history.
If you’re a true crime fan interested in Fred West, Rose West, and real-life serial killer investigations, this episode is a must-listen.
