On the morning of 8 December 2022, the Jersey fishing boat L’Ecume II set out to sea with three men on board. Just after 5.30am, it collided with the freight ship Commodore Goodwill off the island’s west coast.

The impact was catastrophic.

Skipper Michael Michieli and his two crewmen, Larry Simyunn and Jervis Baligat all lost their lives.

What followed was one of the most complex investigations Jersey has ever seen. Teams had to recover and examine evidence from the seabed, analyse data from the ship’s black box, and reconstruct the final moments before the collision.

In this episode of Inside the Investigation, we speak to the lead officers who oversaw that work. From specialist radar analysis to underwater recovery operations, they take us step by step through how the inquiry unfolded – and the scale of expertise required to piece together what happened that morning...

On a hot August night in 1990, Rickie Tregaskis broke into a home through a bathroom window, brutally attacked Emma Anton, and killed Barbara Griffin with a single stab wound to the heart as she ran to her aunt's rescue.

Years later, he boasted that he had got away with murder — and he had, until now.

Express Deputy Editor Fiona Potigny spoke to civilian investigator Lee Turner, whose cold case review led to Tregaskis's conviction 32 years later.
