0:00:00 > 0:00:00and you could see her hands which had been bound by cable-tie.
0:00:06 > 0:00:10I believe in Scotland we've been able to deliver a unique service.
0:00:12 > 0:00:15To identify suspects is one thing, and then to prove
0:00:15 > 0:00:18people are guilty of a crime is something completely different.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23Although you see a lot of dead people, you treat
0:00:23 > 0:00:27everyone as an individual and with respect and with humanity.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33Forensic scientists - they are silent witnesses,
0:00:33 > 0:00:36and they are the eyes and ears of law enforcement.
0:00:56 > 0:01:0019th century forensic pioneer Edmund Locard said,
0:01:00 > 0:01:02"Every contact leaves a trace."
0:01:04 > 0:01:06This shoe is responsible for this mark.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09You can see the fingerprints in the corner there.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12They could be when the note was getting pushed over to the cashier.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16Today the forensic teams catch more killers than ever.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18We reveal exactly how
0:01:18 > 0:01:22in never seen before detail with images from real murder scenes.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Scotland's forensic scientists are world class.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31In murder cases their success rate is over 90%.
0:01:31 > 0:01:34Ironically, Scotland has Western Europe's
0:01:34 > 0:01:36worst murder rate per capita.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41But this small country has developed a unique forensic service.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44Probably if you go back to 2005/2006,
0:01:45 > 0:01:48whenever we started looking at forensic science,
0:01:48 > 0:01:51we realised that we had a very fragmented service.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54We had scenes of crime officers
0:01:54 > 0:01:57who worked for eight different Scottish police forces.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00We had four separate laboratories
0:02:00 > 0:02:03and we had a single Scottish fingerprint service.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Now, whenever we looked at that as a whole,
0:02:07 > 0:02:11we realised that these services were not integrated in any way.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15One of the visions that I had was a crime scene to court service
0:02:15 > 0:02:18where you could actually bring all those agencies together.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20We now do have that.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22I don't know anywhere else in the world -
0:02:22 > 0:02:25and I've looked at it all over the world - where you have that,
0:02:25 > 0:02:29you know, that partnership that's so from the beginning.
0:02:31 > 0:02:36This series reveals exactly what happens - from crime scene to court.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Beginning with two of Scotland's most notorious murder cases.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43It was just a horrific murder all round.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Every aspect of it just defies belief.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49I think they were hoping to find a large pool of blood
0:02:49 > 0:02:51and this would all become very obvious. But it didn't.
0:02:59 > 0:03:04Angelika Kluk - a pretty 23-year-old languages student from Poland -
0:03:04 > 0:03:07found work and lodgings at St Patrick's Roman Catholic church
0:03:07 > 0:03:11in Anderston, Glasgow. She lived adjacent to the church,
0:03:11 > 0:03:16which should have been a safe haven for a young woman far from home.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20But one day, with all her belongings left behind, Angelika disappeared.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Angelika was last seen on Sunday 24th of September
0:03:27 > 0:03:31within the grounds at the church in William Street.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34She's left there without her handbag, any money or a jacket.
0:03:36 > 0:03:40We are very worried about it. It's totally out of character.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43She's a very responsible person.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46As concerns grew,
0:03:46 > 0:03:50police swung into action, searching in and around the church.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53But they found nothing.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Five days after Angelika disappeared,
0:03:56 > 0:03:58the Senior Investigating Officer
0:03:58 > 0:04:01brought in the elite Specialist Search Team.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04They conducted a methodical search inside the church,
0:04:04 > 0:04:08discovering a carpet tiny fractions out of line.
0:04:08 > 0:04:12Hidden below was a small wooden hatch.
0:04:12 > 0:04:16What initially was a missing person investigation then became a
0:04:16 > 0:04:20murder investigation with huge, huge public interest throughout the UK.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Right away you're saying to yourself, this is not a standard murder
0:04:23 > 0:04:25enquiry that we normally deal with.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28From the word go, it's a category-A murder, it's a whodunnit.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34A major forensic operation swung into action.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41Very quickly, as an experienced Senior Investigating Officer,
0:04:41 > 0:04:43I was thinking about the complexities,
0:04:43 > 0:04:45because you don't just think about the evidence.
0:04:45 > 0:04:49You think about what other things are going to come up from a defence point of view.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52The body would be identified as Angelika Kluk.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56But early in the investigation that was far from obvious.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59What I could see from above the hatch,
0:04:59 > 0:05:02it was quite clear there was a body there - appeared to be female.
0:05:02 > 0:05:07A person was underneath there with a tarpaulin over the top of them,
0:05:07 > 0:05:11like a bag of rubbish. Total disrespect for human life.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14You could see plastic covering over the body
0:05:14 > 0:05:18and you could see her hands which had been bound by cable-tie.
0:05:18 > 0:05:23But being mindful of removing that without disturbing it
0:05:23 > 0:05:26or disturbing evidence, we needed the best.
0:05:26 > 0:05:31So we called in a team. The key person was Carol Weston.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35I felt very strongly from the beginning that Angelika's body
0:05:35 > 0:05:38had to be sampled in situ and that she shouldn't be moved
0:05:38 > 0:05:41to the mortuary prior to any evidence being recovered.
0:05:41 > 0:05:45So I wanted to actually go under the floorboards down beside the body
0:05:45 > 0:05:49so I could get the maximum amount of forensic evidence.
0:05:49 > 0:05:53On the advice of the forensic science team,
0:05:53 > 0:05:58I decided to leave the remains in the deposition site.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Now for me, that was a big, big decision,
0:06:02 > 0:06:04but it was the correct decision.
0:06:04 > 0:06:09The advice I got was, if we moved Angelika Kluk, we could have - and
0:06:09 > 0:06:13I would say we probably would have - lost important forensic evidence.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Not only was the hatch very small but it was actually
0:06:18 > 0:06:21bisected by a beam which was a supporting beam to the floor.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24The body was directly under this beam.
0:06:24 > 0:06:27So a lot of discussion took place about - can we cut the beam?
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Can we cut the floorboards?
0:06:29 > 0:06:32And for various reasons, we couldn't do that.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35So the approach was, I was going to have to squeeze down this small
0:06:35 > 0:06:39opening and actually get down beside the body to do the examination.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49The first thing we had to do was to remove the items that were
0:06:49 > 0:06:52actually obscuring her body, which was a tarpaulin
0:06:52 > 0:06:55and a black bin bag with items in it.
0:06:57 > 0:07:01So the first thing I did was pass these things up through
0:07:01 > 0:07:04the hatch to the crime scene manager and then that exposed Angelika's
0:07:04 > 0:07:08clothing and body to allow me to do the rest of my examination.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13At first we were worried because it smelt
0:07:13 > 0:07:16so strongly of decomposing matter, we were worried there was perhaps
0:07:16 > 0:07:19other body parts or something else down there biological.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23But it turned out it was very heavily blood-stained clothing -
0:07:23 > 0:07:27a towel and also what in our opinion was the murder weapon
0:07:27 > 0:07:29used to stab Angelika, so, a knife.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36It was apparent she'd been stabbed multiple times
0:07:36 > 0:07:38and it was apparent she was bleeding from the head.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41She had been gagged and she had tape tied round her mouth
0:07:41 > 0:07:43so it was obviously a very violent death.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Standard forensic practices weren't enough to gather evidence.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Because what was rare and exceptionally challenging in this
0:07:54 > 0:07:59murder was the body had been hidden under floorboards in a cold, dark,
0:07:59 > 0:08:04cramped space, making collecting samples extremely difficult.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07But there was no other choice.
0:08:07 > 0:08:11She was clothed. However, her clothing was in disarray.
0:08:11 > 0:08:16Her fly to her trouser was open and her upper clothing had all
0:08:16 > 0:08:20been pushed upwards above her breasts, exposing her abdomen
0:08:20 > 0:08:24and partially exposing her breasts, and there was obvious damage
0:08:24 > 0:08:27to her top in that she'd been stabbed through her clothing.
0:08:29 > 0:08:34Eventually we did take all her clothing off in situ.
0:08:34 > 0:08:39The reason for that was to preserve anything that was on the clothing.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Once Angelika had been stripped,
0:08:41 > 0:08:43then we could look at actually moving the body.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46I thought the whole examination would perhaps take about an hour
0:08:46 > 0:08:49and I was really shocked when I came out from under the floorboards
0:08:49 > 0:08:52and realised just how long I'd actually been there.
0:08:52 > 0:08:53Three-and-a-half hours.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59The earth beneath Angelika had to be laid out in grids, removed and
0:08:59 > 0:09:03sieved in case there was something significant buried in the soil.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Key exhibits were logged.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09The work of our scientists in biology, chemistry,
0:09:09 > 0:09:12mark enhancement and scene examination was really
0:09:12 > 0:09:15brought to the fore throughout this whole investigation.
0:09:15 > 0:09:20Once we were satisfied that the scientists had retrieved all
0:09:20 > 0:09:24forensic evidence, arrangements were made to remove the
0:09:24 > 0:09:27human remains from the deposition site.
0:09:27 > 0:09:32At that point, the pathologist came and took intimate samples to
0:09:32 > 0:09:37recover any body fluids which would prove any sexual activity.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42I witnessed the swabs being taken and then left
0:09:42 > 0:09:45because I knew that this was just really the beginning of what
0:09:45 > 0:09:47was going to be a massive operation.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52At the end, when you're putting a body in a body bag,
0:09:52 > 0:09:54that sometimes is the point where it actually hits you.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56You've finished your examination.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58You've stopped thinking so much just as a scientist
0:09:58 > 0:10:02and I think that's maybe when it starts to become a bit real.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06You're always very aware that you're dealing with somebody's daughter,
0:10:06 > 0:10:09somebody's sister, somebody's brother, whatever.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12It's never just a piece of evidence. It's always a person.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19Meantime, the police investigation continued under the intense glare
0:10:19 > 0:10:23of the world's media and the worried public.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Suspects had to be identified and eliminated.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29We had to look at people that were close to her, people that were
0:10:29 > 0:10:33in the area. To look at all that, we had to eliminate people.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36There were various interesting, shall we say,
0:10:36 > 0:10:42witnesses that appeared, that had been at the scene,
0:10:42 > 0:10:45had been involved with the church, who knew Angelika.
0:10:45 > 0:10:50So there was very salacious media reporting on that
0:10:50 > 0:10:54and I was aware, early days, that there would be.
0:10:59 > 0:11:03It was shocking to be taken aside and to be told that
0:11:03 > 0:11:06they didn't know who had killed her and that
0:11:06 > 0:11:09until they had worked out who had killed her,
0:11:09 > 0:11:12everybody was a suspect, up to and including the parish priest.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16I never actually met the priest but as I started reading the paper, like
0:11:16 > 0:11:19everybody else, you start to get this picture of the priest and he was
0:11:19 > 0:11:23coming out himself and saying about he was having relationships, etc.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26Father Nugent was a very unusual priest.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29I mean, someone once said about him that he
0:11:29 > 0:11:34had an excess of charity but a lack of discretion.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37He probably didn't have the filter that was required.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43The investigation was very unusual
0:11:43 > 0:11:46with the number of suspects in the frame.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48But there was one other suspect.
0:11:50 > 0:11:55The last person to be seen with Angelika, the church handyman,
0:11:55 > 0:11:57known to everyone as Patrick McLaughlin.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03He quickly became the police's prime suspect.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06But hard evidence was still needed to crack the case.
0:12:08 > 0:12:13We had to be very, very careful until we had the DNA evidence.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Because we were all of the opinion this was a sexually motivated
0:12:16 > 0:12:20murder, the first thing we wanted to do was to establish if there was
0:12:20 > 0:12:24any seminal fluid inside or on Angelika's body and clothing.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30Seminal fluid is a fantastic source of DNA and that would give us
0:12:30 > 0:12:31a sort of starter.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34So we went into the laboratory and the swabs that the
0:12:34 > 0:12:37pathologist had taken were all processed.
0:12:37 > 0:12:42And within a few hours, we knew that Angelika Kluk had semen inside her
0:12:42 > 0:12:46body and that the amount and the distribution of the semen
0:12:46 > 0:12:50suggested that she had had sexual intercourse round about the time
0:12:50 > 0:12:52that she had been murdered.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56I knew at that point that I was going to get a DNA profile
0:12:56 > 0:12:58that would give a name to the police,
0:12:58 > 0:13:01hopefully to start off an investigation.
0:13:01 > 0:13:06So, as well as all the initial emotions, you're also feeling relief
0:13:06 > 0:13:10and just really motivated now to move forward
0:13:10 > 0:13:13and to get your DNA profile and to get this case moving.
0:13:13 > 0:13:18The DNA's actually contained within the sperm cells themselves.
0:13:18 > 0:13:23By assessing the amount of seminal fluid via the sperm cell count,
0:13:23 > 0:13:25you're assessing the amount of activity
0:13:25 > 0:13:29and, to an extent, the time since ejaculation actually occurred,
0:13:29 > 0:13:31since the semen was deposited in the vagina.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36In just over two decades,
0:13:36 > 0:13:38DNA profiling has transformed forensic science.
0:13:38 > 0:13:43Now the DNA robot produces a profile in only ten hours.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46But this is not the end of the process.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52The Scottish DNA database is in the £23 million
0:13:52 > 0:13:55forensic super-campus in Dundee.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59I will send a profile up to them electronically.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02They will then compare it against all the profiles they hold -
0:14:02 > 0:14:04which is about 280,000 -
0:14:04 > 0:14:07and then they will notify me back if there's been a hit or not.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10It's the moment scientists live for or dread.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12In this circumstance, there wasn't.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17It is your worst nightmare when you do a lot of work,
0:14:17 > 0:14:20you get a profile and then you've got no name.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24After all the gruelling work, attention to detail, long hours,
0:14:24 > 0:14:28patience and hopes, the result was a bitter disappointment for Carol.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31What you've got to remember is whoever's done this is, at this
0:14:31 > 0:14:34point, still at large and still has the ability to do it again.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38The murder was in Scotland. The prime suspect Scottish.
0:14:38 > 0:14:42A hit on the database held in England seemed remote.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Carol had an agonising overnight wait.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50Back at the church, progress was equally frustrating
0:14:50 > 0:14:52for Michael Young and the team.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54In the early stages, we couldn't quite figure out
0:14:54 > 0:14:57where she'd been murdered.
0:14:57 > 0:15:00I was going round with my inspector and another police officer,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03and my inspector had a huge bunch of keys.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06And they were searching all these rooms,
0:15:06 > 0:15:09hoping to find some clear indication of where she'd been murdered.
0:15:09 > 0:15:12And I think they were hoping to find a large pool of blood
0:15:12 > 0:15:15and this would all become very obvious. But it didn't.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21One room was particularly important.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Only a few short days before,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31church handyman Patrick McLaughlin lived there.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36He disappeared, leaving tools
0:15:36 > 0:15:39and materials that proved to be incriminating.
0:15:39 > 0:15:41He had good reason to run.
0:15:41 > 0:15:45But before he did, he showed how cold and calculating he was.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51He spoke to the police officer and then very quickly realised,
0:15:51 > 0:15:55the heat's on here, he could get found out and he left.
0:15:55 > 0:15:56That's the coward he is, he left.
0:15:58 > 0:16:03Three days after Angelika's body was found, progress was being made.
0:16:03 > 0:16:07But Carol still needed that crucial match to the DNA profile.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11It didn't take long to get a response from the English database.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Within about half an hour we got a name back,
0:16:16 > 0:16:17and the name was Peter Tobin.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26They told me that Peter Tobin was a convicted sex offender,
0:16:26 > 0:16:29and they told me that he was on the database
0:16:29 > 0:16:33because he'd been convicted of a sexually motivated crime.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36This is Peter Tobin.
0:16:36 > 0:16:39Hampshire Police wish to talk to him after two school girls were
0:16:39 > 0:16:42sexually assaulted and imprisoned in a flat in Havant.
0:16:42 > 0:16:48In 1993, Tobin drugged and raped two 13-year-old girls in Hampshire.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50He abandoned the flat,
0:16:50 > 0:16:52leaving the gas on and the terrified girls inside.
0:16:54 > 0:16:58In 1994, he was sentenced to 14 years at Winchester Crown Court
0:16:58 > 0:17:00and served nine.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03After his release, he returned to Scotland.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07In 2005, after attacking a 24-year-old woman with
0:17:07 > 0:17:09a knife in his Paisley flat, he fled.
0:17:10 > 0:17:14His next known victim was at St Patrick's Church.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17That left only one place to be thoroughly investigated -
0:17:17 > 0:17:19the garage.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21We went into the garage
0:17:21 > 0:17:23because that was the last place she'd been seen alive,
0:17:23 > 0:17:27and we wanted to establish had she been assaulted or murdered
0:17:27 > 0:17:28within the garage.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40So primarily we're looking for blood and a blood pattern.
0:17:40 > 0:17:44It wasn't obvious to anyone that there was anything in there.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47But I remember Carol finding a very, very tiny blood spot within
0:17:47 > 0:17:50the garage and she put a highlighter pen round it.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54And then she found another one and another one.
0:17:54 > 0:17:58And I remember standing back and seeing the fine spray
0:17:58 > 0:18:00within the garage, which wasn't visible at first because of
0:18:00 > 0:18:03the dark red sandstone brick, but when it was highlighted
0:18:03 > 0:18:06you could see the fine spray of blood that had gone up
0:18:06 > 0:18:08onto the walls and on to the ceiling etc.
0:18:08 > 0:18:13What we're looking for is small blood spots that would tell us
0:18:13 > 0:18:17that someone had been struck or stabbed or assaulted within
0:18:17 > 0:18:20the vicinity of the garage, and ultimately that's what we found.
0:18:20 > 0:18:24Small blood spots - which we term impact spatter blood spots
0:18:24 > 0:18:26- on the concrete floor.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30These kind of blood spots, the size of them, these are produced
0:18:30 > 0:18:34when someone is beaten, or struck, kicked, that kind of thing.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36So as soon as we found these small blood spots
0:18:36 > 0:18:38we knew that we'd found the right place.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41It took four days to painstakingly examine
0:18:41 > 0:18:44and log every item in the garage.
0:18:44 > 0:18:48Then another vital discovery was made.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52Angelika was last seen alive helping to paint a garden shed.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58He had moved the garden shed, put it outside,
0:18:58 > 0:19:02a small garden shed where the attack had started,
0:19:02 > 0:19:06was dismantled a few days after her body was discovered.
0:19:09 > 0:19:14Peter Tobin was definitely forensically aware.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17He, with the assistance of others, moved that shed and rebuilt it
0:19:17 > 0:19:18and painted it.
0:19:22 > 0:19:26That is the length that he went to, to conceal his act.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31To murder a girl in the manner in which he did and then
0:19:31 > 0:19:35transport her body from the garage through a chapel, put her underneath
0:19:35 > 0:19:39a hatch, without leaving any trace, was quite difficult, I would imagine.
0:19:39 > 0:19:44And I always say that he probably intended to move her and that is
0:19:44 > 0:19:49a temporary place he's put her and his intention was to take her away.
0:19:49 > 0:19:54We'll never know that. Only Peter Tobin knows that.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57It's a chilling thought that you have someone that's so cool,
0:19:57 > 0:20:00calculated and went to such great lengths
0:20:00 > 0:20:02concealing Angelika Kluk under the floorboards,
0:20:02 > 0:20:04and tidying up after it.
0:20:07 > 0:20:12Forensic evidence was gathering against Peter Tobin, including
0:20:12 > 0:20:16a blood-soaked wooden table leg police found in the church grounds.
0:20:19 > 0:20:22Also piling up in the case against him
0:20:22 > 0:20:24was forensic fingerprint evidence.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Prints found on the black bin bag
0:20:28 > 0:20:31and tarpaulin at the murder scene were cross checked with
0:20:31 > 0:20:34the Ident-1 database which holds 10 million prints.
0:20:37 > 0:20:41The tiniest details were examined and it was a big result.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48The prints matched Peter Tobin.
0:20:48 > 0:20:52We had the knife which, although the knife had been cleaned,
0:20:52 > 0:20:54it had Angelika's blood on it.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57We were of the opinion that that was the murder weapon,
0:20:57 > 0:21:00as in, that had been used to stab her.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03If you clean a knife very well, you tend to still leave trace amounts
0:21:03 > 0:21:05of blood and what we had here was the crevice,
0:21:05 > 0:21:09where the handle and the knife blade actually joined together,
0:21:09 > 0:21:11there was a significant amount of blood.
0:21:11 > 0:21:16Several days later we were given a table leg, a wooden table leg.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19Although it had been outside for a good couple of weeks,
0:21:19 > 0:21:20and in the rain,
0:21:20 > 0:21:24we managed to get trace amounts of blood from this table leg.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27And we were of the opinion that this had been used to strike her.
0:21:27 > 0:21:31So we could obtain a DNA profile that matched Angelika Kluk.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39While evidence stacked up against Tobin,
0:21:39 > 0:21:42a nationwide manhunt was launched to track him down.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Then a lucky breakthrough.
0:21:44 > 0:21:49He had checked into a London hospital, again under a false name,
0:21:49 > 0:21:52but an alert nurse recognised his picture and contacted the police.
0:21:54 > 0:21:58Within days of Angelika's body being found, Tobin was arrested.
0:21:58 > 0:22:03Then even more damning forensic evidence surfaced.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06He had on a T-shirt, a white T-shirt, which was
0:22:06 > 0:22:11stained on the lower front and that staining proved to be a mixture
0:22:11 > 0:22:15of Peter Tobin's semen and seminal material matching Angelika Kluk.
0:22:17 > 0:22:21Tobin was taken back to Scotland to stand trial for the horrific
0:22:21 > 0:22:23rape and murder of Angelika Kluk.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31She was a young girl. She was over here in a strange country.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33She was living her life.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37She was trying to better herself and this is what's happened to her.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48In the same week Peter Tobin was arrested for the murder
0:22:48 > 0:22:53of Angelika Kluk, another high profile murder trial had just begun.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57When a random, heartless murder shocked Glasgow,
0:22:57 > 0:23:00it was a killing that desperately needed to be solved
0:23:00 > 0:23:04because of a potentially explosive racial dimension to the crime.
0:23:04 > 0:23:0815-year-old Kriss Donald was kidnapped in broad daylight,
0:23:08 > 0:23:10tortured and murdered.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15The Clyde walkway, used by cyclists and joggers,
0:23:15 > 0:23:17was where his body was found.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23The body was lying at the foot of a grassy slope.
0:23:25 > 0:23:29He was partially clothed and had extensive burn injuries.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34He looked very small. In fact, he was a child at that time.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36He was 15.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39And it was a very, very bleak sight.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43Everyone was very quiet and respectful.
0:23:47 > 0:23:49Pauline and forensic chemist Ruth Ramage
0:23:49 > 0:23:52were both called out that day in 2004.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56The deceased was lying over there.
0:23:57 > 0:24:02And on the edge of the logs there was what looked like spots of blood.
0:24:02 > 0:24:07I think when you and the other biologists came up
0:24:07 > 0:24:09and looked at that area...
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Yeah, there was more to be seen in amongst the logs.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15We're just approaching the logs now.
0:24:15 > 0:24:20So, on and in amongst all these logs, there was blood staining,
0:24:20 > 0:24:24drop spots of blood and a larger pool of blood just on the dirt track.
0:24:27 > 0:24:31The pathologist said 15-year-old Kriss Donald was stabbed
0:24:31 > 0:24:3313 times in unusual circumstances.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38When someone's stabbed the natural instinct,
0:24:38 > 0:24:42if they can, usually is to raise their hands and arms
0:24:42 > 0:24:44to try and defend themselves, and they often sustain
0:24:44 > 0:24:48cuts and stab wounds to their hands and arms, and Kriss had none.
0:24:48 > 0:24:53And in the absence of any other explanation in Kriss's case,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55it suggested that it was likely he'd actually been restrained
0:24:55 > 0:24:59by one or more individuals whilst he was being stabbed.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03And in between two of the logs there was charring on the ground as well.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07Yes. And even the burnt fabric on the logs
0:25:07 > 0:25:10and around the logs - it was a smell of petrol as well.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13Yes. That was the assault site.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16And then with the charred pieces of fabric that had led on
0:25:16 > 0:25:20to the grass from here, and down towards where he was found.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23His tracksuit trousers had totally been consumed in the fire
0:25:23 > 0:25:25apart from the waistband.
0:25:25 > 0:25:30So that tied in with the pieces of fabric lying around the area.
0:25:30 > 0:25:34When accelerants are used, you can be set alight when you're alive
0:25:34 > 0:25:37and not inhale any soot or carbon monoxide.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41And the circumstances suggested that he was probably set alight
0:25:41 > 0:25:45whilst he was still alive.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48What we are ultimately trying to do is give answers.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51Now that can be answers for the public and the justice system.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53But it can also be answers for the family themselves
0:25:53 > 0:25:56and those that are left behind.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Tyre marks at the murder scene could have come from a vehicle that
0:26:02 > 0:26:04was involved in the crime.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Ruth took tyre casts with the faint hope a vehicle would
0:26:07 > 0:26:11eventually be found with matching treads.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14After that, Pauline struggled to take skin samples,
0:26:14 > 0:26:17trying to find DNA from the killer.
0:26:17 > 0:26:22But the skin was very badly charred and no skin cells were usable.
0:26:22 > 0:26:27Nothing was going well in this investigation.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29But police had a witness.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33When Kriss was attacked and kidnapped by five Asian men
0:26:33 > 0:26:36his friend Jamie Wallace was with him.
0:26:36 > 0:26:39He said, "I'm only 15, I'm only 15," and they said,
0:26:39 > 0:26:41"Do you know what pain is? You're next."
0:26:41 > 0:26:44They were saying about me, I was next.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Then after that I saw him getting dragged into the car,
0:26:46 > 0:26:49head first, and the two doors slamming.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52And they sat on him and they started punching into him.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54The prime suspect was a thug,
0:26:54 > 0:26:57notorious and feared in his own community.
0:26:57 > 0:27:01He appeared to be quite a significant individual within
0:27:01 > 0:27:03the Pollokshields area.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05Very into saving face.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08His reputation appeared to be very precious to him.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11And we believe there was an incident the night before the abduction where
0:27:11 > 0:27:16he was in the city centre of Glasgow where he certainly lost some face.
0:27:16 > 0:27:20Some local boys from the Pollokshields area would have
0:27:20 > 0:27:24appeared to have made fun of him, ridiculed him in some way.
0:27:24 > 0:27:27He was unable to do anything about it at that time
0:27:27 > 0:27:31and he would appear to have been incandescent with rage
0:27:31 > 0:27:35about this and sought to take some sort of action to re-assert himself.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Kriss was kidnapped in broad daylight
0:27:38 > 0:27:42and forced to endure what must have been a nightmarish journey.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45It would appear to be that the intention was to murder him.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49They would have been going to take him somewhere to do that.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53I mean, this young boy, he wouldn't know what's happening to him.
0:27:53 > 0:27:56He would be absolutely petrified by what's going on.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59Five guys there who are very agitated.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01They've just abducted a young boy.
0:28:01 > 0:28:04You've got a leader who's looking to save face,
0:28:04 > 0:28:07who's looking to regain his reputation, he doesn't appear
0:28:07 > 0:28:09to care to what lengths he needs to go to do that.
0:28:09 > 0:28:12It was just a horrific murder all round.
0:28:12 > 0:28:16It was just, every aspect of it just defies belief.
0:28:16 > 0:28:20Only three days after the murder - a major breakthrough.
0:28:20 > 0:28:25Today a silver Mercedes was found in the West End of Glasgow,
0:28:25 > 0:28:28in Granby Lane, and they believe it could be
0:28:28 > 0:28:30the car that was used in the abduction of Kriss Donald.
0:28:30 > 0:28:33The vehicle was a ball of flame
0:28:33 > 0:28:35which the fire service heavily hosed.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39This usually destroys evidence but forensics expert Ruth Ramage
0:28:39 > 0:28:43discovered something distinctive and incriminating.
0:28:43 > 0:28:45I could see there were three different patterns present,
0:28:45 > 0:28:49and these patterns corresponded to the patterns at the locus.
0:28:51 > 0:28:56It's quite unusual to have different patterns of tyres on a vehicle
0:28:56 > 0:29:00and therefore I began to suspect that this might be a car that
0:29:00 > 0:29:02was involved with the crime.
0:29:02 > 0:29:06It was a dramatic breakthrough, and after more forensic examination
0:29:06 > 0:29:09the car generated masses of evidence.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13I then started to look inside the vehicle.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16I could see the remains of green melted plastic
0:29:16 > 0:29:18from a petrol container.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20In addition to that,
0:29:20 > 0:29:24I found the remains of a left Nike training shoe.
0:29:25 > 0:29:29At the murder locus, Kriss Donald was wearing a right Nike training
0:29:29 > 0:29:33shoe but the left shoe was not found to be present.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35The shoe in the car was quite burnt
0:29:35 > 0:29:38but you were still able to see the sole pattern.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41So all we were able to say, it was a similar type of shoe with
0:29:41 > 0:29:43a similar sole pattern.
0:29:43 > 0:29:47Under no circumstances did we ever say that they formed one pair.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50It's looking at all the little strands of evidence.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53Though the car and paintwork were badly damaged,
0:29:53 > 0:29:57Ruth's keen eye found tiny blood spots on the surface.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00And I was called at that point to sample the blood
0:30:00 > 0:30:02and it was found to match Kriss.
0:30:03 > 0:30:09Of particular interest was a rolled up jacket - a leather jacket -
0:30:09 > 0:30:13the pocket linings and the general lining of the jacket was quite
0:30:13 > 0:30:17well preserved because it had been slightly folded over. Despite having
0:30:17 > 0:30:21been set alight and subsequently hosed down by the fire brigade,
0:30:21 > 0:30:26there was enough area that could be targeted for the collection of DNA.
0:30:28 > 0:30:31Essentially we were looking for DNA that might match
0:30:31 > 0:30:33the regular wearer of this jacket.
0:30:33 > 0:30:37We analysed this sample and got a male profile
0:30:37 > 0:30:41which was searched against the DNA database,
0:30:41 > 0:30:46and we come up with a match - Imran Shahid.
0:30:50 > 0:30:53On the journey with Shahid and the others,
0:30:53 > 0:30:56Kriss heard hundreds of calls discussing his fate.
0:30:58 > 0:31:02His killers destroyed their phones, thinking they'd outwit the police.
0:31:05 > 0:31:07But phone calls meant phone records.
0:31:08 > 0:31:12And their own community gave the police their numbers.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20The records looked confusing so the multi-media unit created
0:31:20 > 0:31:23a graphic map revealing every call made.
0:31:25 > 0:31:27These guys were on their phones all the time.
0:31:27 > 0:31:31They were constantly texting, phoning, folk contacting them
0:31:31 > 0:31:34between 3.00 in the afternoon when Kriss was abducted
0:31:34 > 0:31:36through until 8.00 at night when the car was set on fire.
0:31:36 > 0:31:40And there was a period just around 3.00 in the afternoon,
0:31:40 > 0:31:43which was around the time of the abduction,
0:31:43 > 0:31:4520-25 minutes, no activity on the phones at all.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48Calls were traced to Strathclyde Park outside Glasgow
0:31:48 > 0:31:51where the Mercedes parked briefly.
0:31:51 > 0:31:53Then the phones separated.
0:31:56 > 0:32:00One of the gang had to get home because he was a convicted criminal
0:32:00 > 0:32:02- his leg tagged for curfew.
0:32:06 > 0:32:11Imran Shahid and the others set out on a 180 mile round trip
0:32:11 > 0:32:14to Dundee with Kriss still jammed in the footwell.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24It's not known why they took this journey.
0:32:24 > 0:32:27And they returned to Glasgow under the cover of darkness.
0:32:27 > 0:32:31There was another period of time after 7.00 at night,
0:32:31 > 0:32:34another 20-25 minutes, no activity at all on the phones.
0:32:36 > 0:32:39Now, the assessment is - and I believe it to be true -
0:32:39 > 0:32:41that's the time the murder took place.
0:32:43 > 0:32:46Five Asian men were being hunted for the kidnapping
0:32:46 > 0:32:48and brutal murder of a white boy.
0:32:50 > 0:32:53Adding to the growing tension in the area
0:32:53 > 0:32:56was the BNP's arrival on the streets of Glasgow.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01I know that the British National Party were up in Scotland
0:33:01 > 0:33:03trying to drum up support,
0:33:03 > 0:33:06and they were really using the Kriss Donald one as a catalyst for that.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09We're not blaming, you know, the Muslim community.
0:33:09 > 0:33:14We're blaming primarily the police and the thugs, the thugs involved.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17Community leaders, they were very much on-side
0:33:17 > 0:33:22because they knew that five evil men had murdered a young
0:33:22 > 0:33:2615-year-old boy and it just could not be allowed to go unpunished.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29And they helped us every way they could to identify them.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32What we did was, we got two of the guys very quickly.
0:33:34 > 0:33:38Daanish Zahid got 22 years - the first man in Scotland to
0:33:38 > 0:33:40be convicted for a racially motivated killing.
0:33:43 > 0:33:47Zahid Mohammed, the tagged criminal who left Strathclyde Park,
0:33:47 > 0:33:49got five years.
0:33:49 > 0:33:52But three other suspects had escaped to Pakistan
0:33:52 > 0:33:55which has no extradition treaty with the UK.
0:33:55 > 0:33:59There was always this fear that - have they managed to evade justice?
0:33:59 > 0:34:02Have they managed to get away and get to a safe haven?
0:34:02 > 0:34:04And I think that's what their thought process was.
0:34:04 > 0:34:07They wouldn't need to be brought to justice for the horrific
0:34:07 > 0:34:09crime they'd committed.
0:34:12 > 0:34:15We had to submit a case to Crown in Scotland to say look,
0:34:15 > 0:34:18this is the case against these five individuals.
0:34:18 > 0:34:20And they were, they were happy with that.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22But we then had to kind of redo the whole thing again
0:34:22 > 0:34:25and prove then to the Pakistan authorities that look,
0:34:25 > 0:34:28we're not wanting them on suspicion, we're not wanting them
0:34:28 > 0:34:31because we don't think there's a case to answer.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Although negotiations went well,
0:34:33 > 0:34:37the possibility of finding the fugitives seemed remote.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40An agonising 16 months later,
0:34:40 > 0:34:45they were finally captured in a village in rural Pakistan.
0:34:45 > 0:34:49They tried to escape - jumped out from the building
0:34:49 > 0:34:51and escaped to the crops.
0:34:51 > 0:34:56And then my team and I chased them
0:34:56 > 0:34:59and arrested them after a long struggle.
0:34:59 > 0:35:02Because there's no extradition treaty between the UK
0:35:02 > 0:35:07and Pakistan, Britain's first Muslim MP, Mohammad Sarwar,
0:35:07 > 0:35:11used his influence to get the suspects repatriated.
0:35:11 > 0:35:15I managed to convince the Interior Minister
0:35:15 > 0:35:19and the President that it is very crucial,
0:35:19 > 0:35:24not only for the family of Kriss Donald,
0:35:24 > 0:35:27it is crucial for the race relations in Britain
0:35:27 > 0:35:32to ensure that these accused are brought back to the United Kingdom.
0:35:32 > 0:35:36The three killers were locked in a holding cell in Pakistan.
0:35:36 > 0:35:38Meantime in Scotland,
0:35:38 > 0:35:42Robbie Allan waited a further long, nerve-jangling three months
0:35:42 > 0:35:44for a decision from the Pakistani government.
0:35:44 > 0:35:49We actually managed to secure a one-off extradition with Pakistan,
0:35:49 > 0:35:53which meant that a team of us went out to Pakistan
0:35:53 > 0:35:55and brought the three of them back.
0:35:55 > 0:35:57It was right that they sat in a court in Scotland
0:35:57 > 0:35:59and faced their accusers.
0:36:02 > 0:36:05Intensive forensic evidence against Imran Shahid,
0:36:05 > 0:36:09his brother Zeeshan Shahid and the third suspect,
0:36:09 > 0:36:12Mohammed Faisal Mushtaq, now had to stand up in court.
0:36:12 > 0:36:15When you're in court it's quite intense.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17You have to be well familiar with the case
0:36:17 > 0:36:21and be prepared to fully discuss all aspects that you've examined.
0:36:23 > 0:36:27You piece together all the different bits of evidence that you have
0:36:27 > 0:36:29and in this case it was the tyre impressions,
0:36:29 > 0:36:32the petrol can in the car, the training shoe within the car
0:36:32 > 0:36:35and the other training shoe worn by the deceased.
0:36:35 > 0:36:38And you make a final conclusion using all those strands of evidence.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Counsel for defence was the formidable lawyer,
0:36:42 > 0:36:44Donald Findlay, QC.
0:36:45 > 0:36:50DNA and its significance is grossly overstated by the prosecuting
0:36:50 > 0:36:55authorities and it's certainly over-valued by the public at large,
0:36:55 > 0:36:57who of course, in fairness to them,
0:36:57 > 0:37:01get their impression from television programmes such as CSI
0:37:01 > 0:37:06where Grissom or Horatio Caine will come along and say,
0:37:06 > 0:37:10ah there's DNA, crime solved. And somebody's locked up,
0:37:10 > 0:37:13serving life imprisonment, always in 47 minutes and eight seconds.
0:37:13 > 0:37:15It doesn't work that way.
0:37:15 > 0:37:20At the end of the day, my job and the job of my scientists is to
0:37:20 > 0:37:23make sure we provide the best scientific evidence to that court
0:37:23 > 0:37:26and present it in the best way, and that's what we focus on.
0:37:28 > 0:37:32When we got that to court, we were really presenting a strong case -
0:37:32 > 0:37:34to both trials because obviously we presented it twice -
0:37:34 > 0:37:37once when the two of them, two of them went up and
0:37:37 > 0:37:40then once when the three of them came back from Pakistan.
0:37:40 > 0:37:44Imran Shahid - 25 years minimum.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48The judge told him, "You are a thug and a bully with a sadistic
0:37:48 > 0:37:52"nature and you are not fit to be at liberty in a civilised society."
0:37:52 > 0:37:53CROWD SHOUT
0:37:53 > 0:37:55Miscarriage of justice!
0:37:55 > 0:37:58Faisal Mushtaq also hearing the anger of the crowd.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00INDISTINCT SHOUTS
0:38:00 > 0:38:01Scumbag!
0:38:01 > 0:38:05Finally, Zeeshan Shahid. No remorse here.
0:38:05 > 0:38:08Animal!
0:38:08 > 0:38:10Absolutely no remorse at all.
0:38:10 > 0:38:14No empathy at all with the fact it's a 15-year-old boy who
0:38:14 > 0:38:18they had never known, they randomly picked off the street
0:38:18 > 0:38:22and murdered in the most horrific way. Quite chilling.
0:38:23 > 0:38:27No matter where they came from or who they were,
0:38:27 > 0:38:30they killed this young boy.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33And I think that's how Glasgow saw it.
0:38:37 > 0:38:40Justice at last for Kriss's family.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43A mother and sister who have waited two-and-a-half years
0:38:43 > 0:38:45to see his killers jailed for life.
0:38:45 > 0:38:50Justice has been done. Thank you. It is over.
0:38:58 > 0:39:01Tobin had been arrested for Angelika Kluk's murder
0:39:01 > 0:39:03while Kriss Donald's killers were on trial.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08Now he'd be tried.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12Angelika's sister, Aneta, wanted justice.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14The moment of truth had arrived.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17Carol Weston and her evidence would be on trial too.
0:39:19 > 0:39:22Part of the process in preparing for court for the defence
0:39:22 > 0:39:25and the prosecution is a meeting called a precognition.
0:39:25 > 0:39:28We are impartial scientists so we can chat to either side
0:39:28 > 0:39:31and just get across what our evidence means to them.
0:39:31 > 0:39:34And I do remember very clearly Mr Findlay saying to me,
0:39:34 > 0:39:36"Is this what you're going to say in court?"
0:39:36 > 0:39:38And I said, "Yes, it is." And he said,
0:39:38 > 0:39:40"Well in that case, I'm going to have a big problem with you."
0:39:40 > 0:39:42And he did.
0:39:42 > 0:39:45The trial system that we have, whether you like it or not,
0:39:45 > 0:39:49is an adversarial system and it is for the Crown to overcome every
0:39:49 > 0:39:55legitimate hurdle that we put in the way of them proving their case.
0:39:55 > 0:39:57Thereby we hope that,
0:39:57 > 0:40:01if somebody is convicted, the conviction is justified.
0:40:01 > 0:40:03I don't know anybody that enjoys going to court.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06To me, court's a wee bit like going to the dentist.
0:40:06 > 0:40:08They generally like to get the scene examiners in as one
0:40:08 > 0:40:12of the first witnesses to lay out a scene for the jury and for the court,
0:40:12 > 0:40:15and to tell you exactly what was there when you got there,
0:40:15 > 0:40:18because we're first in to the crime scene.
0:40:18 > 0:40:21Increasingly, evidence is presented to juries in a virtual form
0:40:21 > 0:40:24to help depict a scene.
0:40:24 > 0:40:28But this doesn't reduce the need for accurate forensic expertise.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33Sometimes they'll attack your opinion very strongly
0:40:33 > 0:40:36and that can be, it can be very hard, but if you know you're right,
0:40:36 > 0:40:40you know your science is right, you stand there and you defend it.
0:40:40 > 0:40:42And if that takes two-and-a-half days, that's what you do.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45But it's not only lawyers that can be intimidating.
0:40:45 > 0:40:48The first day I came out of Edinburgh High Court,
0:40:48 > 0:40:51there was a whole bank of photographers and reporters outside.
0:40:51 > 0:40:53They proceeded to chase me down the Royal Mile -
0:40:53 > 0:40:56which is not a situation that we're used to dealing with.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59I couldn't quite understand why they would want to do that -
0:40:59 > 0:41:03and I think that's when it struck me that this was a big deal
0:41:03 > 0:41:06and that people were actually very, very interested in this case.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09The next day was my cross-examination.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12It's someone who's questioning your ability, questioning
0:41:12 > 0:41:16your integrity, questioning your professionalism, questioning
0:41:16 > 0:41:21your job and, to be honest, trying to find the flaw in your work.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23And erm, it's very, very hard.
0:41:26 > 0:41:29Donald Findlay QC is renowned as one of Britain's finest,
0:41:29 > 0:41:31toughest defence lawyers.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34He knows exactly how to ask searching questions
0:41:34 > 0:41:36and grill witnesses.
0:41:36 > 0:41:39It was a lot of pressure. And the second day, I did go home
0:41:39 > 0:41:42and as soon as I opened the front door, that was me in tears.
0:41:42 > 0:41:44Then you've got to pick yourself back up and go and do it again.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47It's not personal. It's strictly business.
0:41:47 > 0:41:49So you compromised the evidence?
0:41:49 > 0:41:54If somebody comes to give evidence, if they are particularly
0:41:54 > 0:41:57a professional witness, then they must expect that their evidence
0:41:57 > 0:42:03will be tested and if it is right, it will pass that test.
0:42:03 > 0:42:06I don't set out to upset anybody.
0:42:06 > 0:42:11But I will scrutinise what they say and will scrutinise it,
0:42:11 > 0:42:14in some cases, in great depth.
0:42:14 > 0:42:17But it's not designed to distress anybody.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20It's the evidence that's being tested. It's not the witness.
0:42:26 > 0:42:29To be called biased and to be called a liar,
0:42:29 > 0:42:33it's very, very hard to take, but it's a court setting
0:42:33 > 0:42:37and you should be able to rebut that quite successfully.
0:42:37 > 0:42:40My part in the law is to say to the Crown,
0:42:40 > 0:42:43if you're going to prove guilt, you've got to prove it beyond
0:42:43 > 0:42:47a reasonable doubt and we'll do our best to make sure that you do.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49I can live with that, whatever the outcome.
0:42:49 > 0:42:54Sentencing Tobin to life imprisonment, Lord Menzies said...
0:43:08 > 0:43:12The Angelika Kluk murder investigation - big, big result for
0:43:12 > 0:43:17forensic science and DNA - a bigger result the fact that we put this
0:43:17 > 0:43:22individual, who we then found out was a serial killer, behind bars.
0:43:22 > 0:43:26Every murder leaves a lasting legacy -
0:43:26 > 0:43:29especially one as brutal and cold-blooded as this.
0:43:32 > 0:43:35This is me back at St Patrick's,
0:43:35 > 0:43:38back at the church for pretty much the first time since
0:43:38 > 0:43:44Angelika's body was found and since I carried out my crime scene work.
0:43:44 > 0:43:47I wasn't looking forward to coming back
0:43:47 > 0:43:49and it's actually quite emotional.
0:43:49 > 0:43:52It's a lot harder than I thought it would be.
0:43:52 > 0:43:55It's very unusual for a scientist to re-visit a scene.
0:43:57 > 0:44:01It's quite harrowing coming back, now knowing the full facts,
0:44:01 > 0:44:04knowing exactly what happened to Angelika, knowing that she
0:44:04 > 0:44:09suffered a brutal death and knowing what she must have gone through.
0:44:09 > 0:44:12Slight bit of closure maybe as well, now coming back,
0:44:12 > 0:44:16knowing that the forensic work that we did has actually meant
0:44:16 > 0:44:18that Peter Tobin has been caught for this
0:44:18 > 0:44:21and that he's not going to be able to do anything like this again.
0:44:21 > 0:44:23So, mixed emotions really.
0:44:25 > 0:44:29There were calls for the church to be either permanently closed
0:44:29 > 0:44:33and to have its use turned into something else or to be demolished.
0:44:33 > 0:44:37Many sensible people felt that the crime was so horrific
0:44:37 > 0:44:41and of such magnitude that the only fitting response would be to
0:44:41 > 0:44:44literally send in bulldozers and destroy this building.
0:44:46 > 0:44:49This church was kept closed for the best part of a year after
0:44:49 > 0:44:53the Angelika Kluk case because it was, it was just too
0:44:53 > 0:44:58raw for people to come back here, knowing exactly what had happened.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01The Archbishop was always adamant that as far as he was
0:45:01 > 0:45:07concerned this parish would reopen. The church would be preserved.
0:45:07 > 0:45:10I think probably the focus was going to be on the parish being
0:45:10 > 0:45:13reopened rather than the church.
0:45:13 > 0:45:16The awfulness of her having been attacked and killed
0:45:16 > 0:45:20and buried here is almost impossible to imagine.
0:45:20 > 0:45:25So no amount of rational reflection takes that pain away.
0:45:25 > 0:45:29But the fact remains that probably if he hadn't been caught here
0:45:29 > 0:45:31he would have killed again.
0:45:33 > 0:45:37I was very shocked when I saw Peter Tobin sitting in the dock
0:45:37 > 0:45:39with his purple jumper and his purple shirt on.
0:45:39 > 0:45:42To me, he just looked like a little man that you would
0:45:42 > 0:45:43help across the street.
0:45:43 > 0:45:46But I think the shots of him coming out of court
0:45:46 > 0:45:50after his conviction painted a very different picture.
0:45:51 > 0:45:54But Peter Tobin was being investigated for other murders.
0:45:58 > 0:46:02I suspected by the modus operandi with Angelika Kluk
0:46:02 > 0:46:05that he had committed other crimes.
0:46:05 > 0:46:07And I think that's when it sort of clicked that, yeah,
0:46:07 > 0:46:09this is a serial killer we're dealing with.
0:46:09 > 0:46:12I can't help you. I've never met her.
0:46:12 > 0:46:13As I say, I've never met her.
0:46:17 > 0:46:20Peter Tobin is today serving a life sentence
0:46:20 > 0:46:22in Her Majesty's Prison, Edinburgh.
0:46:22 > 0:46:27He fakes health scares - the latest a suspected heart attack
0:46:27 > 0:46:31in August 2012, and he was rushed to hospital.
0:46:31 > 0:46:32Next day, he was back in jail.
0:46:33 > 0:46:37The cost to the National Health Service for his bogus claims
0:46:37 > 0:46:40is reported to be around £15,000.
0:46:41 > 0:46:44At the same prison in 2011,
0:46:44 > 0:46:47the killer of 15-year-old Kriss Donald, Imran Shahid,
0:46:47 > 0:46:51was slashed with a razor for bullying younger convicts for money.
0:46:52 > 0:46:56He was moved to Kilmarnock Prison in Ayrshire in February 2013
0:46:56 > 0:46:57but continued his bullying.
0:47:03 > 0:47:0615 fellow inmates beat him up with weight-lifting bars
0:47:06 > 0:47:08in the prison gym in retribution.
0:47:15 > 0:47:17At his trial, Judge Lord Uist described Shahid as a
0:47:17 > 0:47:19thug and a bully,
0:47:19 > 0:47:22not fit to be at liberty in a civilised society.
0:47:26 > 0:47:28Shahid entered the Koestler Awards.
0:47:30 > 0:47:33The charitable trust aims to give inmates a positive goal
0:47:33 > 0:47:37and to provide an outlet for creative energies
0:47:37 > 0:47:41and emotions, where cash prizes are awarded to winning entries.
