How To Catch A Murderer | Minutes With | LADbible

the strange husband took a machete and he took her head off on her shoulders that was pretty gruesome to say the least [Music] first murderer i ever met was in 1987 where a man murdered his wife he wanted rabbit and she cooked him chicken and he stabbed it to death the man was arrested he was brought into custody and as the junior officer on the chef my role was to look after him to make sure that he didn't harm himself or anything like that while she was in custody to meet somebody that's taken a life is the the most bizarre feeling you you're meeting someone who 10 minutes 15 minutes an hour ago they've killed somebody that they previously loved in this on this occasion so it's quite it's quite a surreal experience what happens say for instance you're at home right it's two o'clock in the morning you'll get a phone call we've got a body you tip out to the office you'd meet the other guys and you'd go to an area close to the scene you might not necessarily go to the scene because the fact is the forensics are important in the way that they can't be disrupted they have to be kept intact the integrity of the um the forensics is paramount in the investigation so you may not go to this actually into the scene that will be left to a chosen few you'll then undertake house to house if you've got a suspect it may be that you're involved in the taking of swabs from that person obtaining evidence from that person removing their clothing bagging it up correctly making sure it goes to the exhibits officer correctly if you're on the interview team you'll be preparing from the time that you get in you'll be reading all the statements that are available to you you'll be preparing to interview that person by the time you've got to speak to the suspect you could be 12 or 13 hours into the investigation before you actually get into an interview tech stage with them the process around the prisoner is fairly straightforward it's the other work that's taking place in the background with the workers if you want they're the ones that are actually doing all the work to bring it in and they're bringing all the jigsaw pieces together and as an interviewer you're taking that information and using it as part of your your your plan around interviewing i think being a good communicator is the the greatest technique that you've got there's no point in being a shrinking violet if you're sitting in a in an interview i could write down all the questions and and read them verbatim from the piece of paper but the fact is you've got to be a free thinker sometimes and have the ability to communicate with the person that's sitting opposite you sometimes you have to empathize with them if you've got a suspect that's as an example murdered a family member why has he done that has had things got so bad for that individual have they been the victim of domestic violence is this the last step that they've undertaken in order to try and relieve themselves of the pressures that they've faced over the past 10 15 20 years do you ever feel a hatred for the people you're interviewing it's not my job to hate somebody that's not my job my job is to try and identify for the family why we are in this situation why we've got a child an adult in a in a mortuary the police's role is to prove as well as disprove or disprove as well as prove that somebody's involved if they haven't done anything wrong then we'll soon find out they'll be released from custody but my job isn't to hate somebody i was asked a question previously around is this like the tv it's nothing like the tv the fact is that you've got a lot of people working on one inquiry and it could take weeks this isn't more so this doesn't take an hour to clear up this could take weeks to clear up people that are working on these different squads they sacrifice so much in relation to their home lives and what they do in their personal life in order to undertake the role that they do and it is it's fantastic but they are unsung heroes in my eyes my kids could tell where i was by the news not by what their mum was telling me because they would see oh there's been a murder in such and said and they knew what i did it was their election of my duties as a father because it takes its toll i will tell you a funny story i went to one where um the lady hadn't been seen elderly lady died in her house that was that was standard practice for um probationers to go to a sudden death as we used to call them and i broke into the house i let my colleague in there's a lady collapsed on the bed and i said oh yeah i called up on the radio she's dead and this lady sits bolt upright and says i'm not dead i'm not dead all my life but yeah so you know there are some funny sides to policing as well what's some of the worst things you've seen um well uh i suppose um the decapitation of a victim lady was walking down the street she'd been she just dropped the kids off at school just dropped the kids off and the husband the strange husband took a machete and he took her head off on her shoulders um that was pretty gruesome to say the least one one one murder that actually sticks in my mind was a where a man from mauritius was was murdered he was having an affair allegedly and um when his family came to see the body in the mortuary they asked to have a photograph taken with him so i had to get permission from the coroner for them to stand around the body and for me to take a photograph of them as of them standing around the body giving it the thumbs up and the big smiles i found that quite unnerving let's put it that way um but yeah there's there's been a few bits and pieces like that you think well there's a bit macabre you know somebody who's been murdered strangled and then someone has set light to their house i mean the necessity and proportionality is bad enough that they've killed him in the first place and that one actually went to a post-mortem and the fantastic pathologist um spotted the the the bone in the in the neck has been broken the only way that will get broken is if there had been strangulation up until that point we didn't know how he died so the only way that you would have sustained that injury is if somebody had killed you talk through all these horrific things why do you do it oh it's brilliant it is honestly it's i get why people see it as being depressing i understand that but you know what if you are if you are serving the victim to the best of your ability if you're supporting the family to the best of your ability if you identify the person responsible and they get convicted at court you are part of a team that has successfully brought somebody to justice for the most horrendous crime murders of murder as a murder jack the ripper was doing it in the late 1800s the method hasn't changed it's one person taking another person's life [Music] you
