4. Blood Lines: Chapter One

A rather bloody scene. What can the patterns reveal?

When Mrs Thompson said goodbye to her handyman, she knew he鈥檇 come back the next day.

And he did. But she was lying in a pool of her own blood, dead on the kitchen floor.

Or at least, that鈥檚 what he told the police.

Could Jo Millington's bloodstain pattern analysis help piece together Margaret's final moments?

This episode includes references to death, violence and dissection, which some listeners may find distressing. Our victim is fictional, but the science and the scientists are very real.
