This episode follows the dramatic true crime story of the murder of teenager Lucy McHugh, and a second case of child abuse, which exposed the desperate state of Britain’s criminal justice system. As budget cuts push a vital public service to its breaking point, we go behind the scenes with the detectives and prosecutors who are fighting against the odds to get justice for victims. From a suspect with a 'no comment' defense to a child's testimony as the only piece of evidence, this is a look at how a single piece of hidden clothing and the tireless work of a dedicated team finally brought a killer to justice.
This is the programme 'Crime and Punishment'.
