The first ever Kilkenny Law Fest took place last weekend. On its bill, a discussion with Superintendent Paul Maher of the Garda Historical Society. Paul did so much in the Decade of Centenaries to involve the force, and it was great to talk to him about the 1925 merging of the Dublin Metropolitan Police and AGS. This discussion takes in early Irish policing, as well as looking at what made Dublin unique in policing.
Inflation has risen to 3.5%, putting fresh pressure on the Bank of England and on households already feeling the squeeze. But that's not the only storm brewing for the Labour Party. A leaked memo from Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner to Chancellor Rachel Reeves has exposed a growing rift at the top of the Labour Party. In an exclusive report, our political editor Ben Riley-Smith reveals how the two are at odds over tax hikes on savers and investors and what the row means for Labour's economic credibility ahead of the next election.And we speak to Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, former Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, about the state of policing and our justice system right now - from Lucy Connolly's prison sentence to Southport victim Leanne Lucas calling for sharp bladed kitchen knives to be banned.

When the charred remains of a young British woman were found in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve in 1988, the Kenyan authorities tried to convince her father – and the public – that she had been killed by wild animals.It soon became clear that 28-year-old Julie Ward had been murdered. But no one was ever convicted.This is the story of how the crime was covered up by the Kenyan authorities, and of the Ward family's belief that the Metropolitan Police did the same. Plus, of newly emerged evidence which puts the son of Kenya's former president in the frame for Julie's murder.In this episode of The Daily T Investigates, the Telegraph's Katherine Rushton revisits the cold case as part of a months-long investigation.Read: Former president's son implicated in safari murder of British woman: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/05/09/presidents-son-implicated-safari-murder-julie-ward/Producer: Lilian FawcettExecutive Producers: Louisa Wells, Cara McGoogan and Venetia RaineyMixed by Elliot LampittStudio Operator: Meghan SearleOriginal music by John Cadigan Hosted on Acast.

Wie erwartet schaltet "Andor" (58:06) mit den Folgen 7-9 noch einmal einen Gang hoch und liefert den besten Handlungsbogen der zweiten Staffel, ja vielleicht sogar der ganzen Serie. Allerdings sind sich Holger, Michael und Rüdiger nicht ganz einig, ob die achte Folge oder die neunte Folge das absolute Highlight darstellt. Bevor wir zum vorletzten Mal in aller Ausführlichkeit über die beste "Star Wars"-Serie aller Zeiten sprechen, widmen wir uns noch drei neuen Serien. Mit "Suspect: The Shooting of Jean Charles de Menezes" (3:29) erzählt Disney+ in vier Folgen die ebenso tragische wie wütend machende Geschichte eines brasilianischen Elektrikers, der 2005 in London fälschlicherweise als Terrorist bezeichnet und von der Metropolitan Police in der U-Bahn regelrecht hingerichtet wurde. Ähnlich brutal aber auf unterhaltsame Art geht es bei Amazon mit The Bondsman" (43:19) zu, in der Kevin Bacon als Kopfgeldjäger Dämonen jagt und den Splatter "The Boys" noch einmal übertrifft. Über die Qualität der Serie herrscht allerdings ebenso Uneinigkeit wie über "The Four Seasons" (26:46) bei Netflix. In der Neuverfilmung eines Kinohits von 1981 begleiten wir u.a. Tina Fey, Steve Carell, Colman Domingo und Will Forte auf vier verschiedenen Urlauben und durch ihre Beziehungen. Cold-Open-Frage: "Welcher ,Andor'-Begriff würde den besten Rennpferdnamen ergeben?"
A huge part of the shifts we want to see in schools and in education more broadly is more agency, choice-making and self direction for young people. There is an increasingly compelling story about why this is important for them, as well as for the kinds of challenges we're facing in local communities and national and global society. But sometimes what isn't highlighted is the impact of not having those things. What toll does it take on youth well-being and mental health? So this week I'm joined by renowned clinical psychologist and educator Dr Naomi Fisher to help me find out.Naomi is a clinical psychologist, author and EMDR-Europe Accredited trainer. She specialises in trauma, autism and alternative ways to learn. She has a doctorate in clinical psychology from Kings College London (Maudsley), a PhD in developmental cognitive psychology also from Kings College (IoPPN), and a degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of Cambridge. Naomi is also an alumni of UWC Atlantic College, Wales.Whilst in the NHS, Naomi worked in primary care and specialist trauma services in London, as well as neurodevelopmental services. She has worked for the Metropolitan Police and third sector organisations. She now works in private practice with adults, adolescents and children. She runs self-help webinars for parents on how to help their children with common mental health difficulties.Naomi is the author of several books on psychology, mental health and alternative education. She is the author of Changing our Minds: How children can take control of their own learning, A Different Way to Learn: Neurodiversity and Self-Directed Education, When The Naughty Step Makes Things Worse, The Teenager's Guide to Burnout and What Can We Do When School's Not Working?: An Illustrated Handbook for Professionals (with Abigail Fisher). Most of Naomi's books are beautifully illustrated by Eliza Fricker.

"Talk to someone. You are only feeling the way you are because you've experienced a trauma." This icebreaker is a preliminary interview before the full podcast. In this icebreaker, Gaz Hayes (a former British Transport Police Officer) delves into the challenges police officers face, particularly focusing on mental health issues like PTSD that are often overlooked. He answers questions such as: Are the police good at supporting officers with mental ill health? What does it feel like to save someone's life and how does it change you as a person? How do you remember your first days as a police officer? How has being a parent changed you, and what advice would you give to police officer parents? How has your policing experience changed how you experience public events? What advice would you give to someone experiencing their hardest time mentally? How does the British Transport Police compare to the Met? Gaz also shares personal stories from his career, describing the realities of saving lives, the trauma of incidents like the London bombings, and how policing has changed his perspective on public events. The segment ends with practical advice for officers and an exploration of the unique aspects of the British Transport Police compared to the Metropolitan Police.

US and Israel discuss Gaza, hostages at White House Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced fresh hostage release negotiations for besieged Gaza in a White House meeting with US President Donald Trump. Trump, on the other hand, reiterated his controversial idea of ethnic cleansing and US takeover of Palestinian territory during the same meeting. While acknowledging ongoing efforts, Trump called securing all hostages ""a long process"" and suggested the Gaza war's end wasn't far off. He also predicted Israel's war would end “not in the too-distant future.” Separately, hundreds of pro-Palestinian demonstrators in New York City halted Grand Central Terminal, demanding an end to the ""genocide"" and US support for Israel. Trump threatens 50 percent tariff hike on Chinese imports President Trump has threatened a staggering 50 percent hike in tariffs on Chinese imports unless Beijing backs off its retaliatory plans, raising total US duties to a sky-high 104 percent. The move builds on previous levies tied to fentanyl trafficking and alleged trade abuses. Trump declared talks with China are off the table while negotiations with other nations will begin immediately. The US President's latest move is seen as throwing gasoline on the fire. Beijing is set to retaliate with matching tariffs and export controls on rare earths. Global markets have plunged since Trump announced his tariff policy. Report accuses 10 Brits of war crimes in Gaza A legal bombshell drops in London. About 240-page war crimes dossier has been submitted to London's Metropolitan Police, accusing 10 British nationals of involvement in atrocities in Gaza. Spearheaded by famed barrister Michael Mansfield KC, the report cites crimes against humanity and demands urgent prosecutions. Filed by UK and Palestinian legal groups, the report arrives amid Israel's intense bombardment and violence in Gaza. Pro-Israel groups, including UK Lawyers for Israel, dismiss it as a “publicity stunt,” while supporters call it a bold bid for global justice. US-Iran diplomatic discussions set to take place in Oman Diplomatic channels have opened as Iran announces indirect high-level talks with the US in Oman this Saturday. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed the meeting, calling it a "test" for America. While US President Donald Trump suggested direct negotiations over Tehran's nuclear programme, Araghchi dismissed the notion, stating that the ball is in America's court. Trump, continuing his threats of military action, emphasised that the talks are in Iran's best interests but warned of ""great danger"" if an agreement fails. Both sides are now preparing for pivotal discussions. Three dire wolf pups bring back an ancient predator to the wild In an almost secluded 8-kilometre-square preserve, three dire wolf pups — Romulus, Remus and Khaleesi — roam once more, marking the revival of an ancient predator. After 13,000 years, the biotech firm Colossal Biosciences has successfully resurrected these Ice Age creatures, blending science with fantasy. This is the first successful de-extinction. Using ancient DNA, the pups serve as a powerful symbol of de-extinction and conservation. With Indigenous collaboration, the project could also help in saving other endangered species, like the red wolf.

In this episode of Crime Time, Inc., we delve into the gripping events of the Balcombe Street siege in December 1975 and its broader implications on London's history during a period of immense fear caused by the IRA's bombing campaign. We provide an overview of the IRA's strategies and objectives, emphasizing their calculated attacks designed to leverage media attention and public opinion. We recount the devastating bombings, such as the Guildford pub bombings, which intensified the atmosphere of fear in London. The narrative then shifts to the dramatic six-day standoff at Balcombe Street, where four IRA operatives took a couple hostage. Through the lens of this siege, the episode explores the high-stakes cat-and-mouse game between the IRA and the Metropolitan Police's Operation Combo, highlighting the intense negotiations led by Detective Superintendent Peter Imbert. We delve into the police's psychological tactics and the eventual peaceful surrender of the gunmen. The episode also covers the subsequent trial, where the Balcombe Street Four were held accountable for their crimes, and how their imprisonment became a pivotal issue in the Northern Ireland peace process, leading to their release under the Good Friday Agreement. This story illustrates the complexities of balancing justice, peace, and the human cost of political conflict.

Fri, 07 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://seesee.podigee.io/s3e15-david-canter 3e6de251ee69733d078e91ed54a1fc8b Have you ever pondered the potential of psychology to facilitate the apprehension of serial killers and rapists? Or the manner in which behavioral patterns exhibited by criminals can serve as crucial evidence that leads investigators to the perpetrator's doorstep? In today's episode, we are delighted to have the privilege of hosting Professor David Canter, a globally renowned applied social psychologist and the pioneering figure behind the field of investigative psychology. This episode promises a deep dive into the mind of a criminal, the psychology behind some of the world's most notorious cases. So, grab a pen, your notebook and follow Professor David Canter through the dark alleys of the minds of serial offenders as he sheds light on how their behavior is mapped and tracked. We'll go back in time to the streets of London as we examine famous cases such as Jack the Ripper, and travel back to the 1980s to learn about Operation Hart, the Metropolitan Police's investigation into the infamous 'Railway Rapist', which Professor Canter played a key role in solving. We will delve into the heart of criminal behavior as we learn about Quantico and the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit, and the truth about criminal profiling. We'll also talk about his revolutionary development of geographical profiling, the study of criminal behavior patterns across locations, the importance of information classification and investigative methods that lead to an arrest, and how these pieces of the puzzle led to the creation of his software, DRAGNETK. But that's not all - Prof Canter will also share his thoughts on why the United States has such a high incidence of brutal shootings and serial killings compared to other nations, and what happens when crime goes unpunished. A pioneer and creator of investigative psychology, Professor Canter is Emeritus Professor at the University of Liverpool and a visiting professor at Liverpool Hope University and Bucks New University. He's also the man responsible for introducing environmental psychology to the UK and Europe in the 1960s, studying how spaces such as offices, schools and hospitals affect our behavior. Professor Canter recently completed a PhD in Music composition. https://www.davidcanter.com X (Twitter): @ProfDavidCanter Blogs: http://tinyurl.com/ybkp6kky Prof. David Canter's latest book Criminal Psychology in Action: A project-based approach is available to order: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/overview-criminal-psychology-through-projects-ready-carry-canter-dglae Examples of Professor Canter's musical compositions are available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTkxt_0qEDE 3 15 full no nvestigative psychology,Criminal profiling,Geographical profiling,DRAGNETK software,Railway Rapist,Quantico FBI Behavioral Science Unit,FBI,Mapping Murder,Jack the Ripper,Serial killers Dr. Cecilia Ponce Rivera

Good evening, dear listeners, and welcome back to another thrilling episode of Brett's Old Time Radio Show. I hope you've had a wonderful day and you're ready to unwind, relax, and join me for a captivating journey back in time. Here at my home in beautiful Lyme Bay, it's a lovely December evening, and I can only hope it's just as cozy and peaceful where you are. If you're new here, I'm Brett, your host for this evening, guiding you through the dusty archives of old-time radio. For those of you who have joined me before, welcome back – your presence truly makes the night special. Don't forget, you can find all of my links, including Instagram and YouTube, at www.linktr.ee/brettsoldtimeradioshow. I'd love to have you follow along on those platforms as well. Your feedback means the world to me, so feel free to send me any thoughts, comments, or suggestions at brett@tourdate.co.uk. Now, sit back, relax, and prepare for another unforgettable radio experience. Tonight, we have a classic in store for you: Secrets of Scotland Yard, a gripping radio program that transported listeners to the heart of London's legendary Metropolitan Police Headquarters. Broadcasting from the 1940s to the 1950s, this show became a hallmark of the golden age of radio, blending real-life criminal cases with thrilling dramatizations and offering a rare glimpse into the world of Scotland Yard's finest detectives. Secrets of Scotland Yard was not just a radio show – it was an invitation into the world of crime-solving that captivated audiences with its compelling, often chilling true crime stories. Each episode unfolded like a documentary, narrated by the authoritative voices of seasoned hosts like Clive Brook. His calm yet deliberate tone added gravitas to the intricate tales of murder, robbery, and espionage that the Yard had faced. With each case, the show peeled back the layers of detective work, from police interrogations to the pursuit of suspects, giving listeners an almost cinematic feel for how these crimes were solved. The show's format was as straightforward as it was captivating: a real crime, a methodical investigation, and a resolution that often felt as satisfying as it was suspenseful. Whether it was a high-profile murder or a daring heist, Secrets of Scotland Yard delivered not just the facts but also the sense of intrigue and danger that surrounded each case. The narratives were punctuated by dramatized re-enactments that highlighted Scotland Yard's ingenious methods, from careful deduction to early uses of forensic technology. These episodes left you on the edge of your seat, eager to learn how the detectives would crack each case wide open. But what truly made Secrets of Scotland Yard resonate with listeners was the mystique surrounding the Metropolitan Police. As the symbol of elite law enforcement, Scotland Yard had long been a subject of fascination, and the radio program played into this fascination by offering a rare peek into the methods and procedures of this storied institution. With every case, listeners found themselves transported to the cobblestone streets of London, following detectives as they pieced together clues, pursued criminals across the city, and brought them to justice. In a time when the true crime genre was still in its infancy, Secrets of Scotland Yard helped shape the future of crime storytelling. It wasn't just entertainment; it was a blend of education and suspense, a forerunner to today's true crime podcasts and documentaries. The show's legacy lives on, influencing everything from police procedurals to the current true crime boom. It's a show that laid the groundwork for the genre, blending historical interest with the drama of real-life crime. Though the program eventually faded from the airwaves with the rise of television, its impact has been enduring. Today, Secrets of Scotland Yard remains a cornerstone of old-time radio, a testament to the enduring appeal of detective work and the intrigue surrounding one of the world's most famous police forces. And with that, I invite you to sit back and enjoy this evening's episode. Let yourself be transported into the heart of a real Scotland Yard investigation, as we dive deep into the cases that defined an era of crime-solving brilliance. Thank you once again for joining me on this journey through time. If you enjoy the show, don't forget to follow me on Instagram and YouTube, and send me your thoughts – I love hearing from you.

ABOUT DAVID ROBERTS AND PROTECTING WHITNEY David Roberts was Whitney Houston's bodyguard, the real one. Roberts was hired in 1988 for Houston's UK portion of the Moment of Truth world tour. Accustomed to working for diplomats and Fortune 500 clients, Roberts had reservations about working with a pop star. But Houston's heart of gold won him over from the moment they met at Heathrow airport. There's a high bar for those who work in this business: you must be willing to die for your boss. Houston made that easy. Roberts got to travel the globe with one of the most fun-loving and generous souls he'd ever met. His memoir reveals heartwarming anecdotes of life with one of the world's most recognizable stars, including privately shared moments such as the birth of Bobbi Kristina. But there are also shocking and heartbreaking revelations. Roberts was present for some of Houston's most challenging ordeals. And he was helpless as he watched those who claimed to love and support her look the other way because they saw her voice box as a cash machine. His heart was ultimately shattered as he witnessed her succumb to the one threat he could not protect her from: herself. ABOUT DAVID ROBERTS David Roberts served in the Royal Air Force Police, became a police-trained sniper, and served as a sergeant on the Royalty and Diplomatic Protection Department of the Metropolitan Police at New Scotland Yard. He was a professional bodyguard for twenty-five years. Roberts continues his work as a management consultant in security and investigations and remains active in the field of risk management and loss prevention.

Republic's chief executive, Graham Smith, contends that this act violates the Companies Act 2006, which mandates accurate disclosure of directorial identities. The Metropolitan Police have acknowledged the report and are currently assessing whether further action is warranted.This incident adds to a series of controversies surrounding Prince Andrew, including his associations with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and an alleged Chinese spy, Yang Tengbo. Such actions not only reflect a disregard for legal standards but also undermine public trust in the integrity of the royal institution. The use of a pseudonym, especially one linked to his official title as Earl of Inverness, suggests an attempt to obscure his involvement in private financial ventures, raising questions about transparency and accountability. Given his history of questionable associations and decisions, this latest revelation further tarnishes his reputation and calls into question his judgment and adherence to ethical standards expected of a public figure.(commercial at 8:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew reported to the POLICE after 'using fake name' amid saga around private investments company | Daily Mail Online

I first became aware of Wunmi Mosaku at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. Her feature, His House, premiered there and not only was the film itself exquisite, but Mosaku herself was a top-tier interview, brimming with passion and enthusiasm for her craft. From that point on, I've made it a priority to seek out Mosaku's past work and keep up with all of her new releases, and it's paid off big time.Since His House's release on Netflix, Mosaku became a scene-stealer in Lovecraft Country, she joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe via Loki, she did her first voice performance for the acclaimed animated series Scavengers Reign, and now, for the very first time, she's at the top of the call sheet for a series, ITV's Passenger, which is now available to stream on BritBox.Mosaku leads as Riya, a former Metropolitan Police officer who decides to relocate to the tiny town of Chadder Vale to care for her mother-in-law. After the one-two punch of a gruesome discovery and a strange disappearance, Riya becomes convinced that something isn't quite right in Chadder Vale. However, her Chief Constable, Linda (Jo Hartley), refuses to entertain any of Riya's theories. She's far too focused on maintaining the town's reputation and winning Best Kept Village. But is it all a facade? Are past troubles and recent unsettling events uncovering the sinister truth of Chadder Vale? Riya is determined to find out.With all six episodes of Passenger Season 1 now available to stream on BritBox, Mosaku took the time to make her second appearance on Collider Ladies Night. After recapping many key credits during her last Ladies Night interview, this time around, the focus fell heavily on her growing voice and presence in film and television, and how she aims to use them.
