In this episode I’ll not be running you through a case from start to finish, but we’ll be looking at the three different ladies, and how they reached the headlines. They all have hands, big, strong shovel hands, hands that were accused of being where they weren’t, and metaphorical hands that think hands are a lot more than just finger and palm prints.
We discussed Wee Mary in the last episode, and we’ll stay in Partick, but go back a 150 years to a giant of a lady. Then travel back 15 or so years to a perjury case that ruined one police woman’s career, and finally we’ll take a look at one of my personal heroes, Scotland’s own answer to Fox TV’s Temperance Bones Brennan, should we be calling her McBones?

Hello Melanie, Cedric and everyone else who, like I do, looks forward to every new podcast.
Could I make a request please and ask that you consider researching the case surrounding the little French boy, Emile Soleil? I wonder if anyone else feels as I do, that it was very unusual for a grandchild, who has just arrived, to be seen minutes later on his own walking through the village?
Hi Joanne,
The case isn’t what this podcast would cover, but the sister podcast, Crime Most French could. However the case isn’t resolved yet and the enquiries are still ongoing, so it’s a bit early to cover it. But good suggestion, we’ll consider it when things get to trial.
Thanks.
