Description

Episode 64: Gordon Johnston. This week Joannagh brings us the story of Gordon Johnston.Gordon was a 53-year-old man who, in May 1989, was attacked and killed during a violent robbery of the gun and fishing equipment shop where he had worked for 37 years.Joannagh describes how this vicious robbery was part of a wider series of crimes planned by Gordon's killers which would have included kidnapping and extortion.We hear how a combination of the conscience of a family member and the killers' own bungling plans, gave Police the breakthrough in the case they needed to catch and charge them with Gordon's murder.Case research by Emma TaylorProduced by Emma Taylor & Joannagh ShanksEditing by Shaun O'NeillMusic by Tribe of NoiseSources of research:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73myvhyGDTQhttps://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/2014/01/31/gows-of-dundee-owner-the-store-meant-everything-to-me/https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/11970054.two-jailed-for-life-after-atrocity-at-gun-shop/https://www.ddtours.co.uk/archive/gordon-johnston-1989/https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000564/19890515/102/0009https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000564/19890517/114/0007https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000564/19890520/053/0004https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/12245701.cruel-and-sadistic-killer-has-release-hopes-dashed/
