BBC One’s “Crimewatch Live” returns this Thursday with a particularly poignant appeal. While the show regularly tackles unsolved cases and ongoing investigations, this episode, titled “Lay to Rest,” focuses on a case where justice has been served, but closure remains elusive.
In 2023, Carl Cooper was jailed for the killings of both Naomi Hunte and Fiona Holm. While Naomi Hunte’s body was recovered, Fiona Holm’s remains are still missing. This Thursday, “Crimewatch Live” aims to help bring Fiona home, offering her family the chance to finally lay her to rest. The episode will revisit the details of the case, hoping that someone, somewhere, holds a key piece of information that can help locate Fiona’s remains.
Shifting from a somber plea for closure to a more immediate concern, “Crimewatch Live” also turns its attention to Peterborough, where a trio of moped thieves are terrorizing the city. Their reckless joyriding has become a menace, and the show will feature the police pursuit to apprehend these individuals and bring an end to their dangerous spree.
The episode airs Thursday, March 13th at 10:45 AM on BBC One.
