Who Really Killed Claire?
Paperback EN 2023 9781914603365Samenvatting
Who Really Killed Claire? re-investigates the brutal yet apparently motiveless murder of 16-year-old Claire Tiltman in Greenhithe, Kent in 1993.
It describes how police investigations faltered for almost 20 years until Colin Ash-Smith, due to be released from a long prison sentence for attacks on young women, was belatedly charged with this cold case murder.
One of the UK's very first cases involving 'bad character' evidence under a controversial new law. Expertly researched, the book revisits the crime scene, investigation, prosecution, media frenzy and questionable urgency that led to Ash-Smith's pre-emptive arrest and conviction for murder.
Meanwhile, A predatory serial killer was eliminated from the investigation despite 'hallmarks' making him a strong suspect. Well placed to raise doubts, ex-cold case investigator Alan Jackaman analyses the wholly circumstantial evidence and explains why he believes police became too preoccupied with the wrong man.
Alan Jackaman spent over 25 years as a police officer, including with the Metropolitan Police dedicated Murder Investigation Team and Murder Review Group looking into unsolved murders. He is the author of Napper: Through a Glass Darkly.
