Episode 102: Margaret FlemingThis week Joannagh tells us the story of Margaret Fleming, a vulnerable young woman, believed to have been murdered some time between 18 December 1999 and 5 January 2000.We hear how the trial for the murder of Margaret Fleming was groundbreaking, as it was featured in a BBC documentary titled ‘Murder Trial’ and was the first time a documentary crew had been permitted access to record the proceedings of a high court murder trial.Joannagh also tells us of the learning disabilities that made Margaret such a vulnerable person, and how access to her disability benefits may have been a key motive in the crime.Case research by Joannagh ShanksProduced by Emma Taylor & Joannagh ShanksEditing by Joannagh ShanksMusic by Tribe of NoiseMurder She Spoke Youtube Page - https://www.youtube.com/@MurderSheSpokePodSources of research:https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m000d2cy/murder-trialhttps://www.scotsman.com/news/crime/couple-who-killed-margaret-fleming-for-her-benefits-ordered-to-pay-up-3600578https://www.heraldscotland.com/news/19956551.margaret-fleming-murder-documentary-maker-fears-truth-will-never-come/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-60647434https://www.inverclyde.gov.uk/sites/margaret-fleminghttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48523897https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48635838https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-49014751https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-50265909https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-51047938https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48532099https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48203040https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48275280https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/18125606.lawyers-involved-trial-carers-killed-margaret-fleming-talk-tv-documentary/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48513981https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48067246https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-48030174This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4533442/advertisement
