Mar 11, 2013 Season 1 Episode 2 Documentary, Crime

Will the authorities finally solve the mystery surrounding the murder of Roy Tutill, Surrey's most enduring unsolved child homicide? In 1968, 14-year-old Roy vanished while walking home from school, and his body was discovered two days later in a beech tree plantation in the Surrey countryside. Investigators focused on a sighting of an Austin Westminster car, yet they struggled to make progress, leaving Roy's murderer free. However, a cold case review in the late 1990s reignited hope, as advancements in forensic technology raised the possibility of bringing Roy's killer to justice after over three decades.
