The abduction and murder of eight-year-old Sarah Payne in July 2000 horrified the UK—and ultimately led to a historic shift in child protection legislation.
In Part 1 Martin Brunt and Helen Fospero are joined by Detective Inspector Martyn Underhill, one of the lead investigators on the case. Underhill offers an exclusive inside account of the early investigation, sharing never-before-heard details about the massive police operation to monitor prime suspect Roy Whiting.
From painstaking surveillance to bold, unconventional tactics, this episode unveils the high-stakes cat-and-mouse game that brought authorities closer to justice. It’s a rare behind-the-scenes look at one of the most impactful child abduction cases in British legal history.
