The pensioner. Murdered by cold callers.

:00:00.:00:09.

It was like having the rug swept from my feet.

:00:10.:00:16.

Plus, exclusive access to the detectives taking

:00:17.:00:20.

It's a massively evolving threat and we have to

:00:21.:00:29.

And the postcard, which could solve a murder mystery.

:00:30.:00:37.

If we identify who wrote this card,

:00:38.:00:39.

They will hold the key to the murder of

:00:40.:00:44.

Live for the next hour, this is Crimewatch.

:00:45.:01:04.

Good evening and welcome to Crimewatch.

:01:05.:01:08.

Tonight, we're taking on the cybercriminals.

:01:09.:01:12.

We've brought our mobile incident unit to Bletchley

:01:13.:01:14.

A place synonymous with the incredible work of Second World

:01:15.:01:18.

War code breakers who managed to crack Nazi communiques,

:01:19.:01:20.

thereby shortening the war and saving countless lives.

:01:21.:01:30.

These huts at Bletchley were also home to the birth

:01:31.:01:32.

with code breaking machines like the bomb and the world's first

:01:33.:01:42.

electronic computer, Colossus. But even the brilliant

:01:43.:01:44.

minds who worked here, including Alan Turing who sat

:01:45.:01:46.

at this very desk, are unlikely to have predicted how information

:01:47.:01:48.

technology and its misuse Today, internet fraud,

:01:49.:01:50.

hacking and blackmail are serious threats,

:01:51.:01:54.

even when you least expect it. Can I interest you in a free coffee?

:01:55.:02:09.

Have you got Facebook? Your birthday is on the 22nd of the eighth. You

:02:10.:02:14.

are a Gemini. I thought everything was secure. It is surprising. We can

:02:15.:02:19.

see things like date of birth, passwords, mother's maiden name.

:02:20.:02:24.

Worst case scenario, we've seen this type of information being used

:02:25.:02:27.

against people. This can be absolutely devastating.

:02:28.:02:32.

But we begin with a shocking crime, committed just 15 minutes up

:02:33.:02:35.

the road from here on the other side of Milton Keynes.

:02:36.:02:39.

It happened after Hang Yin Leung, a 64-year-old former police officer

:02:40.:02:44.

went to answer her front door, early one evening at

:02:45.:02:46.

To see the house completely ransacked...

:02:47.:02:58.

Hang Yin Leung lived in Milton Keynes with her husband.

:02:59.:03:17.

The family moved from Hong Kong in 1997, where Hang had

:03:18.:03:19.

Since coming over to England, they've tried to make

:03:20.:03:23.

After years of hard work and saving, they bought

:03:24.:03:27.

But family was always Hang's top priority.

:03:28.:03:34.

No matter how difficult situations got,

:03:35.:03:37.

she would always try and help me, where possible.

:03:38.:03:43.

On the 31st of January, Hang was alone at home,

:03:44.:03:46.

At 6pm, she answered the door to a man she didn't know.

:03:47.:04:26.

She was held down, beaten around the head

:04:27.:04:31.

..As the gang ransacked every corner of her home.

:04:32.:04:41.

They searched the house for a terrifying 15 minutes before

:04:42.:04:45.

leaving with a watch, cash and Hang's police

:04:46.:04:47.

Injured and afraid, Hang phoned her son,

:04:48.:04:59.

There was no emotion in it whatsoever.

:05:00.:05:10.

Footage caught by officers arriving at the scene shows

:05:11.:05:13.

A shaken and vulnerable Hang can be seen cowering in her living room.

:05:14.:05:22.

Her personality was voided, there was no energy.

:05:23.:05:31.

Completely different to the woman I had grown up with.

:05:32.:05:37.

Traumatised, Hang became unwell and the next day

:05:38.:05:39.

It was like having the rug swept from your feet.

:05:40.:05:51.

Everyday, you'd go in and see her and have hope

:05:52.:05:53.

Police are treating her death as murder.

:05:54.:06:07.

For me, when I think of burglary, I think of someone stealing

:06:08.:06:10.

material possessions, money, objects, things that can be

:06:11.:06:14.

replaced, but for my family, this burglary has meant that we've

:06:15.:06:16.

What's important is justice for what's

:06:17.:06:27.

happened to mum, so that nobody has to go through this again.

:06:28.:06:38.

Well, we can speak to the lead detective DI Andy Shearwood, now.

:06:39.:06:44.

What exactly did they make away with?

:06:45.:06:53.

They stole a gold Rolex Oyster watch. That was something the family

:06:54.:07:00.

bought in Hong Kong in more prosperous times and brought back to

:07:01.:07:05.

the UK with them. They also stole Hang's long service police medal

:07:06.:07:10.

when she was a police officer in Hong Kong. They stole a number of

:07:11.:07:18.

Hong Kong dollars along with a Luis Vitton handbag and eight gold

:07:19.:07:19.

diamond encrusted necklace. Hang's purse was found several

:07:20.:07:24.

hours after the burglary. Yes, the burglary

:07:25.:07:27.

happened at Hang's home on Bolbeck Park in the north

:07:28.:07:28.

of Milton Keynes. That property travel some distance

:07:29.:07:38.

to Aylesbury about 21 miles away. The purse? Indeed. It was found on

:07:39.:07:45.

Weedon Road at 9:40pm that evening. We are keen for everyone who had

:07:46.:07:48.

seen that property discarded perhaps thrown out of a vehicle between

:07:49.:07:50.

6:40pm and 9:40pm. There's also a very clear image

:07:51.:07:53.

of a man caught on CCTV, This man was seen at the shopping

:07:54.:08:04.

centre in Milton Keynes. He is on the left in the footage with the

:08:05.:08:07.

Chelsea top on. Anyone who knows him, we would love you to get in

:08:08.:08:11.

touch with us this evening and tell us who he is.

:08:12.:08:13.

This was clearly a terrifying burglary.

:08:14.:08:14.

We can see the body camera footage again now.

:08:15.:08:16.

In its ferocity? Thankfully, burglaries of this type are

:08:17.:08:28.

extremely rare. On this occasion, the violence shown and the

:08:29.:08:31.

destruction caused was totally over the top. When they knew that Hang

:08:32.:08:37.

was at home, they could have simply walked away but chose to continue to

:08:38.:08:41.

could admit this despicable crime. It's really important that anyone

:08:42.:08:45.

with any information get in touch with us tonight and prevent these

:08:46.:08:48.

offenders from committing a similar crime again. Absolutely. Thank you.

:08:49.:08:53.

If you can help in any way, I would really

:08:54.:08:57.

The number to call is: 08085 600 600.

:08:58.:09:01.

Calls are free from landlines and mobile phones.

:09:02.:09:03.

Tonight's roundup of criminals caught on camera now beginning

:09:04.:09:09.

with a very nasty stabbing of a man in East London.

:09:10.:09:15.

A man is walking home from his local social club,

:09:16.:09:20.

as he's done every Friday night for years.

:09:21.:09:25.

Suddenly, he's grabbed from behind and stabbed repeatedly,

:09:26.:09:29.

in what police say is a totally unprovoked and motiveless attack.

:09:30.:09:36.

The heartless thug leaves empty handed.

:09:37.:09:39.

The victim suffered injuries to his lung,

:09:40.:09:41.

stomach, bowel and liver and was in a critical condition

:09:42.:09:43.

He was lucky to survive and is still receiving hospital treatment.

:09:44.:09:52.

Who is the violent knifeman responsible?

:09:53.:09:53.

These two men have walked into a supermarket just off

:09:54.:10:02.

the South Circular in Eltham, South London, but they're

:10:03.:10:04.

They round up the petrified shopworkers.

:10:05.:10:14.

The gunman threatens the staff and demands cash from the till.

:10:15.:10:23.

The other robber threatens the female worker with a large knife

:10:24.:10:26.

as he steals cigarettes from behind the counter.

:10:27.:10:32.

The gunman demands every last penny from the till.

:10:33.:10:40.

Police believe this car dashcam footage catches the robbers

:10:41.:10:46.

as they flee and get picked up by a white Land Rover Evoque car.

:10:47.:10:54.

They left with just ?150 in cash and the cigarettes.

:10:55.:10:57.

Do you recognise them or their voices?

:10:58.:11:04.

Police say the occupants tried to break in to a workman's van.

:11:05.:11:11.

The van's owner and his friends spot them and just out

:11:12.:11:13.

of view of the camera, they try and stop the theft.

:11:14.:11:18.

But the car speeds off and the workman tries to make them stop,

:11:19.:11:21.

but he's thrown into the air and left for dead on the road.

:11:22.:11:28.

Thankfully, he needed just three days in hospital and is now

:11:29.:11:30.

Police say this camera also catches the callous crooks.

:11:31.:11:38.

St Ives in Cornwall in the early hours of a Tuesday morning,

:11:39.:11:47.

this man is covering his face for a reason.

:11:48.:11:54.

He smashes his way in to a small family-owned business,

:11:55.:11:56.

Before scarpering with a large amount of high-value gold jewellery.

:11:57.:12:01.

He may have tried to hide his identity, but can you unmask him

:12:02.:12:05.

This one isn't subtle, as you can see.

:12:06.:12:18.

A rail depot in Central London and this man is using

:12:19.:12:21.

After struggling with a hammer, he resorts to brute force

:12:22.:12:27.

and uses a sledgehammer-axe combination, instead.

:12:28.:12:34.

Once he's in, he causes extensive damage to the toilets,

:12:35.:12:36.

Next, he climbs over the roof to another compound.

:12:37.:12:45.

Here, he breaks in to one of the vans.

:12:46.:12:48.

I'm not sure if he's passed his driving test, though.

:12:49.:12:51.

He eventually smashes through the gates,

:12:52.:13:01.

before continuing his wrecking spree and ramming another set of gates.

:13:02.:13:07.

It might seem comical, but more than ?30,000 worth

:13:08.:13:09.

Who is this hapless vandal? Someone must recognise him.

:13:10.:13:20.

Call on the usual Crimewatch number, 08085 600 600,

:13:21.:13:24.

if you can name anyone we've just shown.

As this exhibition inside one of the Bletchley buildings shows,

:13:46.:13:47.

for the first time included online crime statistics,

:13:48.:14:01.

six million cases last year in England and Wales alone.

:14:02.:14:06.

Just last week, the travel association Abta said a cyber attack

:14:07.:14:09.

on its website may have affected around 43,000 people.

:14:10.:14:15.

As this display makes clear, the full scale of fraud,

:14:16.:14:18.

hacking and blackmail lurking beneath the surface of our ever

:14:19.:14:20.

more internet-dependent lives is staggering.

:14:21.:14:21.

So how on Earth do detectives go about taking down

:14:22.:14:24.

DRAMATIC MUSIC the thing about technology, the internet, devices,

:14:25.:15:09.

connectivity, is that it has the same thing for so the criminals it

:15:10.:15:11.

has done for the rest of us. Cybercrime's not a UK problem,

:15:12.:15:16.

it's a global problem. This kind of crime can cost the UK

:15:17.:15:20.

up to ?193 billion a year. We live more of our lives

:15:21.:15:23.

online than ever before. Our homes, cars and even

:15:24.:15:26.

our toys are becoming The connectivity afforded

:15:27.:15:27.

by the internet is a fantastic thing But this

:15:28.:15:33.

convenience comes with a risk. If the internet opens

:15:34.:15:42.

a window on our world, who might we unwittingly

:15:43.:15:45.

be letting in? Anywhere you have some kind

:15:46.:15:50.

of access, some kind of connection to the internet or wider network

:15:51.:15:53.

will create vulnerabilities. This sinister potential is fuelled

:15:54.:15:55.

by the so-called Internet of Things, where devices from watches to baby

:15:56.:15:59.

monitors can be hacked. Your fridge will tell

:16:00.:16:06.

you when it needs more milk, your alarm will set itself,

:16:07.:16:09.

when nobody's in the home. But, if it is not robust and secure,

:16:10.:16:13.

it will actively place you at risk. The scale of online

:16:14.:16:18.

crime is already huge. One of the most recent online scams

:16:19.:16:23.

targets people buying a house. We lost nearly ?48,000

:16:24.:16:31.

to a fraudster who was able to hack into email traffic between ourselves

:16:32.:16:34.

and our conveyancing solicitor. I don't think I've ever had

:16:35.:16:44.

a more stressful period. Policing this new crime

:16:45.:16:51.

:17:30.:17:31.

of covert techniques. But online fraud is

:17:32.:17:34.

just the beginning. From organised gangs

:17:35.:17:37.

to lone sexual predators, criminals are fast learning how

:17:38.:17:41.

to exploit internet weaknesses. Online solicitation,

a new National Cyber Security Centre We think we can automatically reduce

:18:02.:18:07.

the threat to the general public Across just two weeks,

:18:08.:18:14.

they blocked 360,000 fraudulent emails from reaching

:18:15.:18:21.

their potential victims. So we've reduced the harm window

:18:22.:18:25.

and we need to do better But as an example of where we think

:18:26.:18:28.

we can reduce harm at massive scale, A similar online scam tore

:18:29.:18:34.

Jackie Edwards' life apart, when her 17-year-old autistic son

:18:35.:18:40.

Joseph was targeted. He'd received a fake police,

:18:41.:18:45.

I think it was a pop up. It had said that he had accessed

:18:46.:18:51.

illegal websites and committed acts of terrorism/child pornography

:18:52.:18:55.

and that he had to pay a penalty. And if he didn't pay this penalty,

:18:56.:18:59.

he would be prosecuted Joseph's autism meant he took

:19:00.:19:01.

the letter literally. I thought Joseph was

:19:02.:19:08.

getting the hoover out And it wasn't until I approached him

:19:09.:19:12.

that I realised something was wrong and looked over

:19:13.:19:19.

and there was a chair on the floor. My life will never ever

:19:20.:19:22.

be the same again. With the stakes so high,

it's clear that policing So, with the stakes so high,

how can we best protect ourselves? If we take a few simple precautions

to protect ourselves, the vast majority of these attacks

are easily dealt with. People will do things online

stroke, amongst all of Sally Ann's writing I didn't find one example of

that. Someone other than Sally Ann wrote this postcard.

Wanted Faces first, starting with David Daniel Hayes.

:21:34.:21:36.

He was due in court, charged with a number of serious

:21:37.:21:39.

sexual offences against children, but didn't turn up

:21:40.:21:41.

Hayes is 38 and may now have a beard and moustache.

:21:42.:21:48.

He has links to North Wales, Cheshire and the West of England,

:21:49.:21:51.

This is Ruben Gomez, although you may know

:21:52.:21:56.

Detectives want to question him in connection to the kidnap of a man

:21:57.:22:03.

Gomez is 19 and has links across London and also

:22:04.:22:07.

Detectives in Derbyshire think he may have vital information

:22:08.:22:15.

Gilbert, who might now have a beard, is 30 and has links to Birmingham

:22:16.:22:22.

and the Derby, Ilkeston and Amber Valley

Finally for now is this man, Markos Toumazos, or Andreas

:22:25.:22:30.

Detectives want to question him after a credit card was defrauded

:22:31.:22:34.

Toumazos is 48 and has friends and family in Cyprus and also

:22:35.:22:44.

He has Greek writing tattooed on his left arm.

Sally Ann John was just 23 when she went missing

:23:08.:23:09.

She has never been seen since and detectives

:23:10.:23:15.

Tonight, for the first time, we can reveal previously

:23:16.:23:22.

unseen clues in the case, including the mysterious postcard

:23:23.:23:24.

supposedly sent by Sally to one of her friends, three weeks

:23:25.:23:27.

They came to tell me on the Sunday that she'd gone missing.

:23:28.:23:37.

It's a horrible feeling, that your daughter

:23:38.:23:43.

It may look like any other police incident room,

:23:44.:23:59.

Sally Ann John, the woman at the heart

:24:00.:24:04.

of the investigation, went missing in 1995 and police now

:24:05.:24:06.

What's unusual is that her body has never been found.

:24:07.:24:16.

Murder investigations where the body hasn't

:24:17.:24:18.

Normally, if you have a body at the scene of a murder, it offers

:24:19.:24:25.

up forensic opportunities and holds vital clues to identify killers

:24:26.:24:28.

In this case, although we haven't got a body, there are still plenty

:24:29.:24:34.

We have a vital piece of evidence, which we haven't revealed

:24:35.:24:41.

This piece of information may help us identify the person or persons

:24:42.:24:47.

responsible for the murder of Sally Ann John.

:24:48.:24:56.

I had Sally Ann the day the Queen came to Swindon in 1971.

:24:57.:25:00.

She had a little bike she used to ride up and down

:25:01.:25:08.

We just, you know, go for a walk go to the park,

:25:09.:25:13.

She was always happy, she was always bubbly,

:25:14.:25:17.

But as she grew up, Sally Ann developed a rebellious streak.

:25:18.:25:33.

When she was sort of in her late teens, she did start

:25:34.:25:35.

going around with the wrong people and it didn't matter how much

:25:36.:25:38.

I tried to, sort of, say these people aren't good

:25:39.:25:41.

It's like anything, if somebody tell you don't do this,

:25:42.:25:48.

By the time Sally Ann reached her early 20s,

:25:49.:25:53.

she had become a sex worker in Swindon.

:25:54.:26:00.

It was a tough and often dangerous existence, but Sally's

:26:01.:26:34.

friends remember her as fun loving and kind.

:26:35.:26:36.

Sally Ann did have plans for her future.

:26:37.:26:44.

We are aware from speaking to family and friends she was looking to get

:26:45.:26:53.

away from the life she was living, obviously settling down, starting

:26:54.:26:56.

a family and holding down regular employment.

:26:57.:26:57.

But one night, in September 1995, Sally Ann John disappeared.

:26:58.:27:07.

Sally was reported missing to the police.

:27:08.:27:10.

They searched her flat but found nothing missing.

:27:11.:27:14.

I thought something must have happened to her.

:27:15.:27:18.

She'd left all her things, everything she owned

:27:19.:27:20.

in the flat she lived in, she didn't take anything with her.

:27:21.:27:27.

that obviously she may have gone missing of her own volition,

:27:28.:27:31.

but also that she may have come to some harm.

:27:32.:27:41.

With no solid leads, the police scaled down the investigation.

:27:42.:27:46.

Sally Ann was classed as a missing person.

:27:47.:27:48.

Then in 2013, police reviewed the case.

:27:49.:27:54.

We reviewed the original lines of enquiry

:27:55.:27:57.

and conducted further enquiries to see if there's any proof of life,

:27:58.:28:01.

that Sally may be living somewhere else within the UK or abroad.

:28:02.:28:04.

Sadly, we've concluded that there is no evidence at this

:28:05.:28:13.

time that Sally Ann John is still alive.

:28:14.:28:15.

A missing persons case became a murder investigation.

:28:16.:28:18.

To piece together what happened, detectives had

:28:19.:28:20.

to go back to the night Sally Ann disappeared.

:28:21.:28:27.

On the last night Sally Ann was last seen, we know

:28:28.:28:30.

that she was in these streets just near to Swindon town centre.

:28:31.:28:33.

She met with friends that night between 9pm and 9:30pm

:28:34.:28:35.

and was looking to work through till about midnight.

:28:36.:28:42.

Finally, at 10:50pm, Sally was spoken to by police

:28:43.:28:44.

We need to hear from anyone that saw Sally that

:28:45.:28:52.

night or has any information about what happened after that.

:28:53.:28:56.

For the first time, police are now sharing some striking previously

:28:57.:29:02.

Three weeks after her disappearance, a postcard

:29:03.:29:09.

was delivered to one of Sally's friends.

:29:10.:29:13.

Dear Clive, thought I'd write as I've heard

:29:14.:29:14.

you've been missing me and that you were rather worried that

:29:15.:29:17.

This is a post card supposedly sent by Sally Ann John to a male friend

:29:18.:29:29.

in Swindon, letting him know that she was safe and well.

:29:30.:29:33.

The post card was sent off for forensic analysis.

:29:34.:29:41.

Within the postcard, we have a capital "E", which is written

:29:42.:29:43.

like an "L", then a top stroke and then a middle stroke.

:29:44.:29:46.

Whereas amongst all of Sally Snn's reference writing, I didn't find

:29:47.:29:49.

There was very strong support that someone other than Sally Ann

:29:50.:30:02.

But if Sally didn't write the card, who did?

:30:03.:30:13.

The investigation team strongly suspect that whoever wrote this card

:30:14.:30:16.

was either coerced into writing it, was mislead into writing it,

:30:17.:30:18.

or equally, it may be the person involved in her disappearance.

:30:19.:30:23.

If we can identify the person that wrote this card, they will hold

:30:24.:30:26.

the key to the murder of Sally Ann John.

:30:27.:30:33.

It's a horrible feeling, that your daughter may

:30:34.:30:35.

because you can't do anything about it.

:30:36.:30:41.

I want whoever did this to be counted for.

:30:42.:30:52.

And I'd like to know where she is, so we can put her to rest

:30:53.:30:57.

and then this whole nightmare will be over.

:30:58.:31:03.

Joining me now is DS Don Pocock of Wiltshire Police.

:31:04.:31:09.

Deeply distressing for Sally Ann's mother even after all this time.

:31:10.:31:18.

You're hoping that this postcard might reveal more

:31:19.:31:20.

about what happened to Sally Ann John?

:31:21.:31:22.

We strongly suspect that the person that wrote this postcard was coerced

:31:23.:31:28.

into writing it, misled into writing it all equally the person that wrote

:31:29.:31:32.

it is responsible for the murder of Sally Ann John.

:31:33.:31:36.

This happened 22 years ago, do you think that there are people

:31:37.:31:39.

Absolutely. I am appealing to members of the public that radically

:31:40.:31:46.

in Swindon about information they have all the movements of Sally Ann

:31:47.:31:51.

John prior to her going missing and in the aftermath of her going

:31:52.:31:53.

missing, any information they have about the location of her body,

:31:54.:31:55.

persons involved in her murder. Some news reports have

:31:56.:31:59.

linked Sally Ann's murder to Christopher Halliwell,

:32:00.:32:01.

a convicted killer who worked as a taxi driver with links to

:32:02.:32:03.

Swindon. We remain open-minded in our lines

:32:04.:32:14.

of enquiry and we have liaised with our colleagues who are dealing with

:32:15.:32:19.

Mr Halliwell. But I would urge the media not to speculate because of

:32:20.:32:23.

the distress it causes to the family.

:32:24.:32:24.

There is a reward of ?25,000 for information which leads to the

:32:25.:32:33.

recovery of Sally Ann John's body or a conviction for people all persons

:32:34.:32:37.

:33:13.:33:17.

six rounds were fired. The victim and his friend can be

seen here running to safety. Detectives say it's sheer fluke

:33:23.:33:27.

someone wasn't killed. Detectives believe there

were a number of people in the area at the time who may have witnessed

the shooting, and they'd like them There's a reward of up

to ?10,000 on the case. You may remember that

:33:39.:33:44.

in our first programme, we appealed for information

:33:45.:33:46.

on the whereabouts of convicted murderer Shaun Walmsley,

:33:47.:33:48.

who escaped from prison guards whilst on a hospital visit

:33:49.:33:50.

in Liverpool, last month. Unfortunately, he's still at large,

:33:51.:33:57.

so, tonight, detectives are releasing this moving footage

:33:58.:33:59.

of his escape in the hope It shows the moment the terrified

:34:00.:34:02.

guards were overpowered by armed men, before Walmsley

:34:03.:34:08.

and his accomplices The car was caught on camera

:34:09.:34:10.

waiting, moments earlier, Detectives stress that Walmsley

:34:11.:34:18.

and those harbouring him Tonight, they're announcing

:34:19.:34:23.

a ?20,000 reward for information In 2015, television presenter

:34:24.:34:29.

Gloria Hunniford had more than ?120,000 stolen

:34:30.:34:38.

from her bank account. Tonight, we can reveal this moving

:34:39.:34:41.

CCTV for the first time. It shows a woman going into a bank

:34:42.:34:47.

in Croydon on June 3rd. Police say she claimed to be

:34:48.:34:50.

the television presenter. Another woman, seen here,

:34:51.:34:52.

claimed to be her daughter. Later that day, almost ?121,000

:34:53.:34:57.

was drained from Gloria's account. We can also release this signature,

:34:58.:35:01.

which detectives say The first feeling is, really, shock.

:35:02.:35:21.

Then, how could they do that, the questions start. Anger. Frustration.

:35:22.:35:25.

It's a mix of everything and it's very annoying and frustrating and

:35:26.:35:29.

disappointing that when you think your money is safe and locked away,

:35:30.:35:36.

that actually it isn't. Do you recognise either of those women or

:35:37.:35:40.

the signature? Please call now, if you do.

:35:41.:35:42.

Well, tonight we've been looking at the prolific

:35:43.:35:44.

Such is the threat to individuals, businesses and even states

:35:45.:35:50.

that there are plans, next year, to open an elite boarding

:35:51.:35:52.

school here at Bletchley Park to train the next generation

:35:53.:35:55.

Hopefully, they'll be a bit more savvy than the rest of us, when it

:35:56.:36:01.

comes to safeguarding our information and privacy.

:36:02.:36:03.

To see just how vulnerable many of us are, we decided to set up

:37:59.:38:04.

All out there. No! We can see things like date of birth, passwords,

mother's maiden names. Worst case scenario, we are seeing this type of

:38:09.:38:13.

information being used against people for extortion and blackmail.

:38:14.:38:16.

This can be absolutely devastating. It is quite creepy what you can find

:38:17.:38:22.

out on the internet, isn't it? Incredible stuff.

:38:23.:38:24.

It just goes to show you can't be too careful, especially

If you have a moment, do take a look at the Crimewatch

website, which has lots of information and advice about how

:38:32.:38:33.

How police caught a despicable killer who'd tortured a 77-year-old

:38:34.:38:45.

The night of the murder, Mrs Edmond's card was used at a

was brutally murdered She had been stabbed several times,

and tortured for her debit card pin number, before being beaten to death

:42:23.:42:27.

with a marble rolling pin. We reconstructed the case several

:42:28.:42:30.

months after the attack, but it would take another eight

:42:31.:42:32.

years and two trials for her killer She was very loved,

:42:33.:42:38.

she was very funny, very kind, 77-year-old widow Georgina Edmonds

:42:39.:43:18.

lived near picturesque part of rural Hampshire.

:43:19.:43:20.

She lived in a sweet little cottage by the river,

:43:21.:43:22.

It's a lovely area, next to the River Itchin,

:43:23.:43:29.

all sort of things in the garden, and it was just a place

:43:30.:43:32.

But, in 2008, the cottage she loved was the scene of a terrifying attack

:43:33.:43:41.

and Georgina's last moments. We know Mrs Edmonds was up quite

:43:42.:43:45.

early, her dogs were collected Then she had quite a usual

appointment in the morning where her hairdresser came

:43:48.:43:54.

to her house and did her hair. That's the last person we know

went into the kitchen and there was my poor mother lying

on the kitchen floor... Police in Hampshire have launched

:44:29.:44:31.

a murder enquiry after the the body of a 77-year-old woman has been

:44:32.:44:48.

found at a house near Winchester. She suffered 37 different injuries,

:44:49.:44:54.

including 12 stab wounds to her neck, chest and abdomen

:44:55.:44:59.

and was hit over the head several times with a marble rolling

:45:00.:45:02.

pin, with such force The only thing taken was her

:45:03.:45:04.

handbag, which contained her mobile We do think she was effectively

:45:05.:45:08.

tortured for that pin number. Officers began a physical

:45:09.:45:18.

and forensic search for clues. We were in the house

:45:19.:45:23.

for the best part of two weeks, recovering numerous pieces

:45:24.:45:27.

of evidence, literally hundreds of fingerprints raised various

:45:28.:45:29.

items recovered for DNA. But the challenges of the case

:45:30.:45:33.

were soon apparent. It was a rural area,

:45:34.:45:37.

and we had large swathes We couldn't find anybody

:45:38.:45:39.

who would have any sense of motive to kill Mrs Edmonds,

:45:40.:45:47.

so we were very clear, There's somebody out

:45:48.:45:49.

there who we think has randomly walked into the cottage

:45:50.:45:53.

of an old lady and tortured Just three days after

:45:54.:45:55.

the attack, officers of the murder, Mrs Edmonds'

:45:56.:45:59.

card was used at a Tesco It was used by someone dressed

:46:00.:46:14.

in a large fluorescent jacket who put the card into the machine

:46:15.:46:21.

and tried to get ?200 out and put in the wrong number

:46:22.:46:24.

and then walked off. We knew that was either

:46:25.:46:27.

the killer or someone So if we could identify that person,

:46:28.:46:29.

it would undoubtedly The images gave detectives

important leads. He knew there was a CCTV camera

he stepped over a fence. some work around

who uses that route. In a day, we had 400 people,

:46:47.:46:53.

only eight of them used that route and every single one of them

:46:54.:46:56.

was a local person, so in my mind it was a local crime with a person

:46:57.:46:59.

who had been to that Officers began to

:47:00.:47:03.

circulate the image. Despite receiving hundreds of names,

:47:04.:47:06.

none brought them closer As well as the card,

:47:07.:47:08.

the killer had also stolen Quite early on in the enquiry

:47:09.:47:18.

we realised her phone had actually been switched on or off

:47:19.:47:25.

because there was an indication That enabled us then to do

:47:26.:47:27.

an extensive search in and around the area where we thought the phone

:47:28.:47:31.

may be, and we located the phone on the river bank,

:47:32.:47:34.

which is on the exit scene We believe the offender has tried

:47:35.:47:37.

to throw the mobile into the river, Police collected a list

:47:38.:47:44.

of all the mobile numbers used in that area on the day

:47:45.:47:52.

of the murder. Which was, what do you do

:47:53.:48:03.

with 220,000 numbers? Fundamentally that list was only

:48:04.:48:10.

relevant when we had somebody Detectives were,

:48:11.:48:12.

however, getting closer. Behind the scenes, forensic

:48:13.:48:16.

enquires were ongoing. It was a little while into

:48:17.:48:19.

the enquiry when we got a partial DNA profile from the rolling pin -

:48:20.:48:22.

the actual murder weapon itself, which was very significant

:48:23.:48:25.

but at the same time it was quite It was a mixture and

:48:26.:48:30.

it was very difficult to interpret, there was no one

process of trying to establish everyone that had been in that

cottage over the previous two years. But none matched the sample

:48:46.:48:48.

found on the rolling pin. We start to realise at least some

:48:49.:48:51.

of that belonged to the killer. Officers began comparing the DNA

profile to the thousands of potential suspects they had

:48:56.:49:00.

previously spoken to, Police had questioned

:49:01.:49:02.

the man in 2008. He had one conviction for possession

:49:03.:49:10.

of cocaine and he lived within the vicinity,

:49:11.:49:15.

within a couple of At the time, he had provided

:49:16.:49:17.

an alibi and willingly And two years later,

:49:18.:49:24.

this DNA matched the mixed partial The man was 31-year-old

Matthew Hamlen. We spent a lot of time building

:49:30.:49:45.

a picture of his background And every enquiry we did,

:49:46.:49:48.

every little thing we did He was quite a violent man,

:49:49.:49:52.

he'd had an incident with his partner that he'd

:49:53.:49:56.

hit her around the head used and drove to see some friends,

:49:57.:49:59.

so on the day of the murder, Matthew Hamlen didn't have a car,

:50:00.:50:10.

which fitted the fact that we And the mobile phone number he used

:50:11.:50:13.

at the time of the murder We found he had one call

:50:14.:50:20.

in the vicinity of Fig Tree cottage around the time of the murder,

:50:21.:50:25.

but secondly, in a small ten minute window, he was in an area

:50:26.:50:31.

where Mrs Edmonds' phone In June 2010, Matthew Hamlen

:50:32.:50:33.

was brought into custody. Of course, the first thing is,

:50:34.:50:44.

you ask the question, are you responsible for the death,

:50:45.:50:46.

and he said he wasn't. So you know this is going to be

:50:47.:50:50.

a protracted length of interviews. He never shouted, he never got

:50:51.:50:56.

annoyed but he was always He was being evasive,

:50:57.:50:58.

I thought he had something to hide. And from very early on I suspected

:50:59.:51:16.

that we had the right person. But they still didn't have

:51:17.:51:22.

enough evidence to charge. Hamlen was released on bail

:51:23.:51:27.

and the team were left Normally, to get a full match,

:51:28.:51:30.

your profile would be one in a billion, i.e.,

:51:31.:51:40.

it's a billion times more likely that person is the killer

:51:41.:51:43.

than a random member of the public and our ratio was in the thousands

:51:44.:51:46.

but we thought that was still convincing when you put that one bit

:51:47.:51:49.

of evidence in the round. In November 2011, 18 months

:51:50.:51:53.

after he was first arrested, Matthew Hamlin went on trial

:51:54.:51:57.

for Georgina's murder. I went every single day

:51:58.:52:04.

and listened to everything. rather insignificant,

:52:05.:52:06.

it's just terribly hard to imagine anyone doing

:52:07.:52:10.

such a vicious crime, just, you know,

:52:11.:52:15.

smashing up my mother. Ten weeks later, the jury

:52:16.:52:20.

reached their decision. I remember the jury coming

:52:21.:52:24.

in to give the verdict and some I was sitting in the gallery

:52:25.:52:27.

with the family, and all thoughts It was personally disappointing

:52:28.:52:47.

but really you knew for them, There was no prospect of trying

:52:48.:52:50.

to try someone else for this murder, I couldn't have lived

:52:51.:52:54.

with myself if I haven't tried. Following the murder,

:52:55.:53:05.

police had taken several tapings from Georgina's clothes

:53:06.:53:07.

and the crime scene. On those tapings were over

:53:08.:53:12.

a thousand skin cells and I felt that some of those had to belong

:53:13.:53:16.

to the offender. And it was always a case of,

:53:17.:53:19.

well, how do I find them? And the advice up to that point had

:53:20.:53:22.

always been: you can't. But I just thought this

:53:23.:53:26.

may be the only chance. It was agreed they would test

:53:27.:53:29.

the tapings from the sleeve When the scientists came back

:53:30.:53:32.

with the result their first words were 'Martin you'd better sit down,

:53:33.:53:36.

it looks like we've got a single source of DNA and it

:53:37.:53:41.

matches Matthew Hamlen'. The figure was one in 26 million,

:53:42.:53:47.

what that means it is 26 million times more likely that the DNA

:53:48.:53:51.

we found on Georgina's blouse it was justification,

:53:52.:53:54.

we knew before, we knew we were right the first time

:53:55.:54:08.

but this was just proof. In October 2014, Hamlen was arrested

:54:09.:54:13.

and charged for a second time. Officers now had to convince

:54:14.:54:17.

the Court of Appeal that there their evidence

:54:18.:54:20.

was new and compelling. That was a difficult part

:54:21.:54:25.

and in my own mind I thought we could lose it at the Court

:54:26.:54:28.

of Appeal because a lot his acquittal was quashed,

:54:29.:54:31.

making it only the seventh double And eight months later,

:54:32.:54:39.

Matthew Hamlen went on trial for a second time

:54:40.:54:46.

for Georgina's murder. We knew we had strong evidence,

:54:47.:54:49.

we had a scientist that would say the DNA was left at the time

:54:50.:54:52.

of the murder by direct After six weeks, the jury

:54:53.:54:55.

returned with their verdict. That was a really exciting

:54:56.:55:06.

moment for everybody. You knew it was the right decision,

:55:07.:55:16.

that was the great thing; that It's a solemn thing, because he's

:55:17.:55:19.

guilty of murdering my mother Just a relief, particularly

:55:20.:55:26.

for the family, that this is finally It's been a huge investigation,

:55:27.:55:37.

it's taken a long time and it's a large part

:55:38.:55:41.

of my career so you know, Eight years after Georgina's death,

:55:42.:55:44.

Matthew Hamlen was handed a life Justice is done and now

:55:45.:55:50.

we move on and it's spring and I remember my mother

:55:51.:56:03.

for all the right reasons now. It's the last thing you can

:56:04.:56:08.

do for your loved one, is to get justice for them

:56:09.:56:11.

and somehow then you A terrible case, but justice

:56:12.:56:14.

served in the end. Right, just time before we go

:56:15.:56:27.

to check in with Tina, who has the latest on what's come

:56:28.:56:30.

in on the phones. Well, we've had some good

:56:31.:56:40.

information coming. We have had a couple of really good calls about

:56:41.:56:43.

the person we want to speak to in the CCTV so we will be following

:56:44.:56:47.

those up but it would be really good if we have more calls in relation to

:56:48.:56:50.

whether property might be, the watch. Just to reiterate, that man

:56:51.:56:57.

is not the subject. No, just someone we want to speak to.

:56:58.:57:00.

Well, that's just about all we have for you on what's been

:57:01.:57:02.

If you have information, but haven't been able to get

:57:03.:57:06.

The Crimewatch lines are open until midnight, tomorrow.

:57:07.:57:09.
