Episode 99: Karen Buckley
This week Emma tells us the story of Karen Buckley, a 24-year-old student from Ireland, who was killed in 2015 whilst living in Glasgow.
We hear how the alarm was raised after Karen did not return home after a night out, something which was very out of character for her.
Emma describes how the police appeals to the public resulted in crucial information being provided. This information would ultimately lead to the discovery of Karen's remains and would be vital in the case against her killer.
