0:31

and welcome to the slightly delayed episode 397 of

0:33

the UK True Crime Podcast. I'm Adam. Today's

0:39

story is about family, money and

0:41

greed. And it's from Sheffield

0:43

where I will be for the first

0:45

British True Crime Convention on Saturday 7th

0:48

September. There

0:50

are so many interesting speakers from the world

0:52

of law enforcement and tickets are now on

0:54

sale for only £44 for the full day

0:56

including lunch, which is amazing value. If

1:00

you look in the show notes, you will see a link

1:03

to the event. So take a look, get a ticket and

1:05

I'll see you there. Ok,

1:07

so before we start the story today, let's

1:09

quickly set some context when the events we

1:11

talked about occurred with our never

1:13

copied Guess the Month and Year game. Why is

1:16

that I wonder? Anyway. Britney

1:19

Spears was top of the UK Music Charts with Born

1:21

to Make You Happy. In the

1:23

US Smooth was at the summit

1:25

from Santana featuring Rob Thomas. And

1:27

in Australia, Macy Grey was at

1:30

number one with I Try. In

1:34

the news this month, the favorite of

1:36

conspiracy theorists, Bill Gates stepped

1:39

aside as Chief Exec of Microsoft

1:42

and promoted company president Steve Bulmer to

1:44

the position. A

1:46

Scottish trawler, the Solway Harvester sank

1:48

in the Irish sea killing seven

1:50

sailors. And there

1:52

were two significant pieces of UK true crime news.

1:55

Firstly, Harold Shipman was sentenced to life

1:57

in prison after being found

2:00

guilty. of murdering 15 patients in Greater Manchester

2:02

between 1995 and 1998. The subsequent

2:07

inquiry concluded he killed at least 215,

2:09

staggering. And the Liberal Democrat

2:14

MP for Cheltenham, Nigel Jones, was

2:16

attacked his constituency surgery by a man

2:18

with a samurai sword. 39 year

2:22

old Andrew Pennington, a counselor, came

2:24

to Nigel's defence. He

2:26

was stabbed nine times and later died. Ok,

2:29

he says yes the month and year. It

2:32

was January 2000 when we were all

2:34

looking to the new millennium with such

2:36

optimism for the future. Do

2:38

you still feel the same? Oh

2:42

dear, today's story comes from Sheffield, a

2:44

city known for its still heritage with easy

2:47

access to the Pennines and the Peak District.

2:50

It's around 30 miles south from the home of

2:52

World Football Leeds and about 165

2:55

miles northwest of London. Some

2:57

famous people from Sheffield include the actor

3:00

Sean Bean, top athlete turned

3:02

mediocre administrator Seb Coe, an

3:05

all-around top man and ex

3:07

Monty Python star Michael Palin,

3:09

somebody who nobody ever has a bad word

3:11

to say about, a bit

3:14

like me. It

3:16

was a bright January day in Sheffield at

3:18

about 4 p.m. as two friends are walking

3:21

to return a drill bit to a tool

3:23

factory in the Attacliff area of

3:25

the city. As they walked

3:27

they saw something just off the pavement in the

3:29

hedges. It hadn't been covered up

3:31

and was easily spotted. It

3:34

was a hold all about three foot long. The

3:36

two men who found it carried it down the

3:39

road thinking it contained something valuable like an engine.

3:41

It was certainly big enough. The

3:43

bag was covered by a bedding sheet tied down

3:46

with rope and then wrapped in

3:48

polythene. They put the package

3:50

down and did the rope unzip the bag, peeled

3:52

open the polythene and got the shock

3:54

of their lives. They'd found a

3:57

badly decomposed body. I

26:00

don't need to tell you that it was pure stupidity

26:04

to think it was safe as the identity of

26:06

the body could never be traced I

26:09

just don't get it, even they gone

26:11

to so much effort to conceal Muhammad's

26:14

death It just

26:16

makes no sense to me And

26:18

now both men have to spend a long time in jail

26:22

And the community in Sheffield was robbed of

26:24

a kind man at the very centre of

26:27

the community And

26:29

once again the motive was just greed,

26:31

money All his

26:33

kindness towards his family We paid

26:36

in the most shocking and brutal

26:38

way imaginable Thank
