BBC One’s “Crimewatch Live” returns Tuesday morning with a case that chills to the bone: the unsolved 1984 murder of Lisa Hession. This episode, titled “Every Parent’s Nightmare,” revisits the tragic case, making a fresh appeal to the public for any information that might finally bring Lisa’s killer to justice.
Lisa, a teenager at the time, was murdered in Manchester, leaving a community devastated and a family searching for answers. Decades later, the case remains open, a stark reminder of the enduring pain of unsolved crimes. Detectives hope that by bringing the case back into the public eye, someone, somewhere, might hold the missing piece of the puzzle.
But “Crimewatch Live” isn’t just about cold cases. The episode also features a more contemporary crime: a thief targeting gym lockers. Viewers will get an inside look at how police used technology and good old-fashioned detective work to track down the culprit. As always, the program offers practical advice on how to stay safe and avoid becoming a victim of crime.
“Crimewatch Live,” hosted by Rav Wilding and Michelle Ackerley, airs Tuesday, March 4th at 10:45 AM on BBC One.
