Hello, it's Adam. The bonus episode today is the sixth of my regular monthly conversations with my good friend Stuart, the host of the British Murders Podcast. In this recording, live from CrimeCon London earlier this month, we sat down to chat about local, national and international crimes which have really made an impression with us.

The live audience were great and included Prof David Wilson - listen out for his insightful contributions.

The story today is from Yorkshire. Eighteen year old Rachel Barraclough lived in Bradford and had everything to live for, enjoying life with her family, friends and boyfriend. But then one normal Friday evening, Rachel went out for the night and didn't come home - it was the next day that her body was found after she had been brutally attacked on an isolated river towpath in Wakefield. Just who would have wanted to hurt Rachel? And why?

There have been many miners killed across the UK, in a series of terrible accidents in an industry that has always been known as dangerous. But when we think of coal mining disasters they tend to be in the 18th and 19th centuries, including the worst mining disaster in UK history which killed 439 men and boys working in Senghenydd, Glamorgan in 1913 as a result of a gas explosion.

The story today is from the 21st century, but is again from South Wales and once again, it destroyed many lives.
