About this listen
A woman disappears on her way to work. A man is convicted of her murder. But this case is different. Though the police believe they have the right man, key components of the prosecution case are missing. There is no body of the victim, no witnesses to the crime, no confession and no physical evidence: no DNA, CCTV or murder weapon.
Journalists and TV producers Darrell Brown and Sophie Ellis examine the extraordinary case of Suzanne Pilley, a woman who vanished whilst on her way to work in Edinburgh in 2010. The pair has spent two years investigating the case and speaking exclusively to David Gilroy - the man who was found guilty of killing Suzanne and disposing of her body. He is currently serving a life sentence in a Scottish jail.
But Gilroy says he is innocent: victim of a miscarriage of justice.
Darrell and Sophie are not so sure. They explore Gilroy's claims that the investigation and trial were mishandled, that key pieces of evidence were not presented in court and witnesses were not contacted.
The pair uncover startling information, not heard in court, that might have changed the minds of the jury. And they shine a light on aspects of the Scottish criminal justice system that might be keeping an innocent man behind bars.

Anyway, this is well worth a listen if, like me, you're obsessed with true crime! Great to have a quality British listen, with two refreshingly British voices.

The missing time on the Lochgilphead trips is never explained properly and the absence of contact when she went missing is frankly very suspicious. Explaining it by saying that a work colleague & wife told you not to, doesn’t cover the dynamic of a missing person scenario of someone you were in an intense relationship with .
All in all there was not nearly enough concerns to believe a miscarriage of justice occurred . The fact Gilroy protests his innocence whilst electing not to give evidence at his trial puts that in context .
A lot of effort and care was taken in the production and narrative but it never felt at any stage that an innocent man had been wronged and falsely in imprisoned
