Summary

Christine Lakinski, Brent Martin, and David Atherton. The accounts you will hear in this episode concern three people who never knew one another, and indeed, lived many miles apart, but who in the space of just a year, became part of the same sad and disturbing set of statistics.

Each were vulnerable adults, and each became prey for, the only word that can possibly describe the actions of some individuals, animals.

The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving vulnerable adults, that some listeners may find disturbing and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
