About the episode

In a quiet English town, 13-year-old Billie Jo Jenkins was brutally murdered on the porch of her foster home.  Her foster father, Sion Jenkins, was convicted of the crime, but after two retrials, he was acquitted in 2006 - leaving one of the UK's most notorious murders unsolved.  Despite his acquittal, the jury never delivered a ‘not guilty’ verdict, making this case even more perplexing.   Professor Adrian Linacre is a forensic blood spatter expert, who’s worked on hundreds of cases across the world, including the Billie Jo Jenkins murder investigation.  In this episode, uncover the twists and turns in this highly controversial case, go inside the courtroom drama, and unravel the delicate balance between forensic science and justice.
