The investigation into the DPD murder reaches a critical point in the third part of Murder 24/7, airing Wednesday, 18 June, at 9:00 PM BST on BBC Two. Detectives are tightening the net around a potential “inside man,” working to prove he supplied the information that led to Aurman’s deadly roadside attack. The episode follows the meticulous process of building a case, showing that even without wielding a weapon, the suspect could be just as culpable as those who carried out the assault.
Just as the team focuses on this crucial link, the Major Investigations Unit is pulled into a new case. An 80-year-old woman has been found dead at home, and her learning-disabled son is discovered with serious injuries in a possible murder-suicide attempt. This second, deeply troubling scenario forces the unit to divide its attention and resources.
The series continues to provide an unfiltered look into the mechanics of modern murder investigations. Viewers will see detectives working to gather evidence and establish the truth in two very different, but equally disturbing, cases. The pressure mounts as the team must make sense of events where the lines between victim and perpetrator are not immediately clear.
