Episode 61: Rory Blackhall. This week Emma brings us the story of Rory Blackhall, an 11-year-old boy from Livingston who went missing after being dropped off at his primary school on 18th August 2005. We hear how recent upheaval in Rory's home life led some to believe he may have run away, or that he may have been vulnerable and open to manipulation.Emma also tells us how the assistance of the public led police to the home of their only suspect, who would do anything to avoid facing justice.Case research by Emma TaylorProduced by Emma Taylor & Joannagh ShanksEditing by Shaun O'NeillMusic by Tribe of NoiseSources of research:https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/town-shock-police-hunt-schoolboy-s-killer-307878.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/uk/2005/aug/30/ukcrime.gerardseenanhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4805506.stmhttps://www.thefreelibrary.com/Our+lost+boy%3B+Rory+Blackhall.-a0135543643https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/12483367.revealed-suspect-for-rory-murder-was-listed-as-a-risk-to-children-on-police-files-failings-expose-crisis-in-justice-system-with-more-than-30000-outstanding-criminal-warrants/https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-360177/The-mystery-schoolboy-Rorys-murder.htmlhttps://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/rory-11-was-killed-by-suspected-555639https://www.irishtimes.com/news/scottish-police-say-boy-11-was-asphyxiated-1.1181628https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/the-last-kiss-931181http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4172262.stmhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/4172262.stmhttps://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2005-08-23/schoolboy-murder-investigation-opened-in-scotland/2087206?pfmredir=smhttps://www.upi.com/Top_News/2005/08/23/Police-Boy-may-have-known-killer/64461124850516/?ur3=1https://www.campaignlive.co.uk/article/technology-company-trouble-murder-copy/527797
