You're listening to the Paranormal UK Radio Network and listening is Seventh Sanctum. This
is Carry Anne and you're listening to Seventh Sanctum. For those that haven't come
across my podcast before, I am a paranormal researcher. I'm a psychology graduate
and I have an interest in true crime and I have been using the platform
Seventh Sanctem on Paranormal UK Radio Network to look at the stories and tells within
the UK that are linked to witchcraft and true crime. I have tried to
steal away from the conventional stories that we hear. I did a lot of
those on the Equilibrium UK YouTube channel, so this is more looking at the
tells that you aren't likely to come across unless you live local to the area,
and I've found some really interesting ones. The last show that I did
for Seventh Section, we covered three different cases. One includeing Charles Woolton and
that featured Margaret Murray, who is also going to be featuring quite heavily within
this show. Actually, this case happened within two years of that one,
and I think there's that neighboring towns as well. They weren't too far from
each other. So I will get right in, should I say so,
just a few hours journey from my current location in Essex, which, by
the way, if you are interested in towers of witchcraft and you know history,
Essex has a lot going on, especially you know of Manningtree, Leonce
and Hadley. But this isn't where this tower belongs to. It's in a
location called Witchbury Hill is noted for its beautiful countryside and its picturesque views.
But in the nineteen forties, where this story took place, the location wasn't
just about the beauty. It would become known for so much more. Back
then, hanging figuratively and quite literally above the area was cryptic graffiti. And
since then, since in nineteen forty to eighty years, there has been the
same question, who put Bella in the witch elm Now discretion is required as
for this towel? Has it all murder? Mystery, espionage, war on
witchcraft? Of course, of course, that is what we're here for.
But first we shall start where it appeared to begin. We shall start right
in the middle of this towel. On April eighteenth, nineteen forty three,
a gruesome discovery, having made this wiz inside of the trunk of an elm
tree. It was a seemingly typical Sunday afternoon for four teenage boys who had
been spending their day in Hagley Woods. At this time, Hagley Woods was
private land and without permission, the boys have been hunting rabbits and looking for
bursiness in search for eggs. England has been at war with Germany for three
years at this point, and a nearby town, Birmingham, had been fallen
foul to the most horrific bombings noted that far. However, this particular day
all had seemed uneventful. The four boys named Robert Hart, Thomas Willett,
Bob Farmer and Fred Payne, had decided to detour for their normal route when
heading back to where they call home. En route, they came across an
incredibly unusual tree. It stood out from its surroundings, which was which had
picked the teenager's interest. It was about six foot tall, with the circumference
not being much smaller. It had long, spindly branches that chaotically extended in
all directions. This tree was identified as a witch elm, and I will
say at this point witchcraft hasn't yet joined the chat by which is spelt w
y c h. However, witchcraft is coming, because that is what we're
here for. For the young boys, it was common knowledge that such tree
would often have hollowed spaces within trunk, and this was perfect to continue their
hump for birds eggs. They allocated the strongest climb up, Robert, to
climb up and peek inside, but when he did, it was not a
bird's nest nor eggs staring up at him. He was a skull. Thinking
this may possibly be an animal skull, the boys passed up a stick to
Robert for him to be able to use, and with some great effort he
finally was able to reach down and was able to fish it up. But
it become quite quickly apparent that this was no animal skull, but in fact
a human skull, and as they examined this skull, they was able to
see that there was small amounts of flesh still attached, with tufts of round
brist to hair clean onto the scalp. The fine for the boys was immensely
terrifying. This skull had been so deep down into the trunk of the tree
it was hard to fathom how or why it was even there. When assessing
the magnitude of what was in front of them, it seemed something out of
a movie. The skull to be there and where it was, a person
would have needed to fight through the jagged e sporadic branches and push deep down
within the tree. The boys become increasingly worried about the responsibility of what would
happen next. Of course, they wanted to tell someone. They wanted to
tell someone of the discovery that they had made, but they were concerned about
the repercussions of trespassing, of hunting without permission. This estate, Hagley Woods
at the time, was private, so it was decided amongst them to keep
the find a secret. With that, Robert put the skull back and they
returned home. However, the silence from the boys were soon broken. The
youngest of the group, Tommy Willitts, was so deeply disturbed by the friend
he decided to tell his father. It would be the next morning that Tommy
would be headed the search party filled with police to reveal the true horror within
the trunk of the witch Elm. It was soon discovered that there was much
more than the remains of a skull. However, it was going to be
very difficult to remove whatever was hidden within it within the tree due to their
being such a small and our gap. The only solution that seemed to be
glaring is splitting the which with an axe, and when they did so,
inside was just not the hot the skull that had been replaced by the boys
after the find, but the complete skeletal remains of a person. Now,
when I went back, and I hadn't, you know, obviously was researching
the story, there's lots, like I said, so much to this that
was so interesting. In fact, I've not been able to cover as much
as I want to, but there's a few things that I found quite interesting,
and one of them was the positioning of the remains. When they were
able to separate the tree and they found that the the person that was within
it would have had to have entered tree feet first. The remains appeared to
be standing up due in too, the verst placement. It did become apparent
that the reason why the body had fallen down so deeply was as the body
decayed, it traveled further and further down the tree, eventually becoming so entwined
it become part of the tree itself. Now, at this point I encourage
you to take a look at the tree and ask yourself, how would the
remains in the position it was found enter it enter the tree? How would
they have done that? Logic would say that the body couldn't have entered it
by itself, and it would have had to have entered from above. This
would obviously be met with great difficulty when we think about how the boys found
it so hard to even be able to find access to the narrow opening,
how the police deducted that it would be a lot easier for them to be
able to retrieve what was ever inside by splitting the tree in a half.
Because everything was just so narrow, so it wouldn't have been an easy thing
to do. It would have been near and impossible without causing great injury to
the person involved. The person that was doing essentially the lower rim. The
access point was so narrow that the remains of the person could not have just
dropped in either. It wasn't an accidental entry from maybe climb and other trees.
However, the remains entered it was done so with massive effort and a
great difficulty. The human remains was taken to a forensic science sebatory in Birmingham,
where they were examined by doctor James Webbs. Working under Webster was doctor
John Lunde, who at an impressive age of a hundred and one, was
interviewed on the VBC four punt PI, which is still available to listen to
for those that are interested. During this lund shared the notes and experiences he
had developed on the case. He stated the remains had entered the lab two
days after the initial findings. Pathology results determined that the remains belonged to a
woman who was five at all, a brunette who had not chemically treated,
colored, or permed her hair, and was between the ages of thirty five
and forty at the time of her death, and it was noted that at
some point she was likely to have given birth at some point in her life.
It was determined her cause of death was asphixiation caused by a piece of
material in her airway. It was also noted that this wasn't the type of
tree a person would just be able to get in and assisted, so this
wasn't something that self inflicted. More than one person would have had to have
been the culprit. Placing a body would have needed to have happened before or
after briga mortis is set in or worn off. With these findings, it
was concluded that this body had been hidden in the tree while still warm,
With the possibility of this happening while she was still alive, it was concluded
the murder would have taken place in the woods. It was noted that the
body had entered an advanced stage of decay, but it was unclear if this
could have been attributed to time, to nature or a unique place of burial.
But it was noted this lady had distinctive overweight and a tooth had been
professionally removed in the last few years before her passing. This sparked a search
for dental records, starting in West Midlands, then too Central England, which
then spanned to the entirety of England. No records were found that matched.
It was argued that was such a little trace of this in England. Maybe
the victim was a foreigner, or or the dentist she visited did not keep
up to date records. It was estimated her remains had been hidden in the
tree for a year and a half before being found. In terms of what
was found around her and with her, there was a number of items in
the vicinity of the burial site. This included several items of decayed clothing which
include a cloth skirt, tafta underskirt, and a lightweight cardigan which aligned with
the styles of clothing that would have been worn at that time. A year
estimated for a passing, which is somewhat in summertime leading up to October,
a cheap wedding ring was found, indicating someone who wasn't particularly well off but
married, As well as one shoe. The other was found inside the trunk
itself. It was a pair of expensive shoes estimated to have been manufactured in
Dudley and sold at marketplace in nineteen forty. They were incredibly well worn,
which leans further to maybe not being financially well to do. They were expensive
shoes, yes, but the state that they were in a wealthy person wouldn't
probably wear them, so it was leaned into maybe it was a gift she
had been given. Is asked why this shoe was removed, and the answers
vary from being moved by animals to being dropped by the killer. However,
and this was the most important part they really kind of in terms of true
crime. If this is what you're here for. The true crime this baffled
me. They found a lady's ID card in the vicinity of the burial site
of the tree. It was thought to belong to the victim herself, and
when police went to the resisted address, the woman that belonged to was very
much alive. Now, why is this so interesting other than the fact that
this person was alive and obviously had visited the burial site at some point,
But it was more for the fact that the lady couldn't give an explanation of
how or why her idea had been found in Hagley Woods. She actually claims
that she had never been there herself. Sadly, really sad is that this
lead went cold as no other identifying information on this person had been documented,
nor anyone who had may have lived with her at the time or had connections
with her. No follow ups were given, so this lead, like the
entire case, eventually went cold with no further information gathered and required that this
were acquired at this point. Now, in terms of leads, that didn't
mean that they stopped any lines of inquiry and a bit to find the true
identity of the mystery woman missing person records were regularly checked. The newspaper and
media outlets were following the case. They provided the public with potential identifying information,
but no one come forward to claim her. Thousands upon thousands of missing
records were cross examined, but this was a fruitless task. This included information
about what the woman would have worn examined by website. Despite the distinguished looks
the dental records the missing person records, no light was shared on who this
lady wants would The information regarding what was known so far was shared in newspapers
and dental journals, and yet nothing surfaced that would indicate information regarding who she
was. Now this insert leads of inquiry. There was a plethora of sightings
and hearings and alleged communication and theories, and there's so many. There was
so many that I've only been able to really pick the top few that seemed
to give any weight. But it seemed to all start in July nineteen forty
one. This was when a man who worked in the industrial industry stated that
he was walking home near Hagley Woods he heard what he described as a woman's
scream, and this seemed to be validated by another passer by heading in the
opposite direction at the same time. The police were informed and they were called
to the scene, but they didn't find anything near where the screen was heard,
and this remained the same when the replace revisited in nineteen forty three after
reviewing the murder that had happened. The reports of the screen coincide with the
window time given by Watson, but again when they went there they didn't see
anything. It seemed as though the case was running cold again. And to
be fair, when I look at the case, it really didn't seem to
get hot. They never really seemed to have very much. But again it
seemed to everything seemed to kind of die down. And it isn't like at
this time as well, there wasn't bigger concerns nationwide. It would be easy
for someone to forget that this had happened in comparison to everything else that was
happening around the world and in the country. The country was still at war
with Germany, and due to the activity of Armor's development in Birmingham, the
area was regularly attacked, which also highlights an importance of the impracticability when it
comes to record keeping. At this time as well, so in terms of
the dental records and missing person records, this was really hard to keep on
top of considering the activity that was going on in the area while the Midlands
were moving away from the conversations that surrounded the murder mystery. December nineteen forty
three, odd graffiti or street up as it's called now started to appear in
the local area. Now it began as statements, and these statements started as
who puts Bella down the witch Elm? These words evolved to many variations such
as Annabella died in Hagley Woods, who put Luebella down the witch Elm?
And who put Bella in the Wetchy witch Elm? The original pid in Old
Hill. This and of course those that followed were examined and that it was
determined that at that time each were written the same large capital letters in the
same word formation. By spring time there wasn't a fence or building in the
West Midlands that didn't seem to have a variation of this statement. It seemed
to have been done by the same person due to the fact it was so
similar across the world. It was also determined that was too high up for
it to be the hygiens or children. At this point there had been no
identity of the victim, no idea who the murderer or motive was no leading
information uncovered. It was suggested that the motive for the sudden appearance of Streetheart
was unclear. They believed to be the mocking of the authorities. With the
little progress made, the police did put out adverts for the person to come
forward that had been creating a street up, but no one did. They
checked the name Bella Luebella Anabella against the Misimparsson reports for the estimated time with
the murder too, and still nothing. However, due to the persistency are
the woman found in the witch elm was from that point known as Bella.
Now finding a body in an elm is enough to leave people licking outside of
the realm of russianale. However, a body in a tree in Hagley Woods
had them open to the possibility of the realm of magic. Hagley Woods had
a strong link still does within the community of pagan sacrifices, black magic and
rituals. Unlike with many superstitions and a folklore, it is unclear where these
associations were first established. It is noted, however, a link to a
local public house called the Gypsy's Tent. The Gypsies Tent had a regular report
of alleged hauntings which included the woods in many of the stories. At the
time of Bella's murder in nineteen forty one, the rumors were extensive rituals of
all sorts of nature. And on my last podcast I spoke of Charles Walton,
the man who was mysteriously murdered whilst working on farmland. The way in
which he was murdered was nest to witchcraft. In the fact was labeled one
of the witchcraft murders. Now. Other than these two separate murders happening in
neighboring towns only two years apart, there are no links to one another,
except for one particular individual consulting on both the cases who believed occultist activity was
at play at the very root of the witch el murder. Involved and consulting
The lead investigator on the Charles Walton case was Margaret Murray. Will Murray found
herself delving into Bella's case. Murray, at the time was eighty two years
old and at this point in her career was the first woman to publicly unwrap
a mummy and due to academic research, consider the grand old woman of Egyptology
as well as this. Murray was a anthropologist and archaeologists and spent time in
Britain and studying occultism. Amongst the few in relation to Bella, Marie identified
a number of practices that took place during and directly after Bella's murder to indicate
witchcraft. Murray argues that is believed in Old European practice of witchcraft, encapsulating
a person in a tree is considered to trap the person and their magic inside,
wouldn't of evil and preventing any further harm to be caused from baneful from
a baneful witch. But most importantly was the act of recovery, the alleged
removing and burying of the hand away from the burying of the body. Murray
claimed that this is known as black magic. Now I know I haven't mentioned
this yet because he is not in the records of Lund or his lead pathologists.
However, it is stated in the police records that the hand was buried
away from Bella's body. Murray states that this is known as a black magic
torch or the hand of glory. This was done to remove the person from
their predominant hand, relinquishing their ability to cast. Murray stated this would be
a tool for divination and is often taken place with a criminal who has been
hung during a lunar eclipse. Is believed in corners from Murray. This is
completed with the fact of the person being used to make a candle using a
hair as a wick. The name Bella, according to Murray, is linked
to named Bella Donna and name used for the poisonous plant deadly nightshade. Murray's
work has since come under scrutiny. However, like the witchcraft murders previous,
the media took hold of this story and it become a sensation with no other
leads. This angle was investigated by the police. This theory inspired the nineteen
eight sixty eight David McCormick book Murder by Witchcraft. I found the fact that
her hand had been removed from my body quite interesting. Again, I know
I haven't stated this yet. This is new facts because it was so heavily
linked to the witchcraft theory, and it was not put into any of the
pathology records you are. However, it is noted that the hand was removed.
Her predominant hand was removed and was found a few feet away from her
body in the elm, buried underground. It is argued that this could have
been done by an animal, the same as the shoe that was missing.
Like I said, once she was in the elm with her, the obvious
shoe was melt. Now, when you think about at that time, when
we've talked about things like the Ipswich witches and the witch trials, and when
you talk about the the mass hysteria around the Satic Satanic murders and stuff,
you always need to look at what's going on in the community when these things
take place, Like we've I've already used the example of Ipswich. You know,
you had the famine, you had the war, you had, you
know, the fact that everything was so desolate, you know, in the
community was feeling like they were being punished by God and that they needed to
you know, start looking outwardly for people that were being sinful and punished them
because they're the reasons why they're being punished by God. So you had this
going on, and it's the same when you look at where this location is
just not too far from the cots Walls. It's not too far from you
know, like I said with the Charles Walton's murder before that there was a
similar murder taken place that was linked to he just because it happened in the
same way. It's quite gruesome, and I have covered them stories already.
If you want to go back and listen to those, you're welcome to on
this channel. But at this time there was so much superstition, and it's
noted. Like I said with Charles Wharton, it is a reoccurring theme of
house steeped in superstition that the location is with he was actually investigated. Charles
Wilson's case actually was investigated by the infamous detective Fabing and he was consulting with
Murray. And I know that I'm sidetracking, but I want to kind of
give an insight what's going on in that community at the time, and I
know that one Fabian was investigating the Charles Wharton murders. He really truly believed
that the community was shutting down on him, that they didn't want to talk
to him about what was happening because of the fact that they linked it to
witchcraft. And it was always like he believed that the community knew more than
what they were letting on. And it's almost like, you know, all
for the grocer good of us that we are not filmed talking about with Simon
Peg. But it's kind of that kind of mentality. And and he says
at one point he went within the countrysidely he crossed paths this huge black dog
with red going eyes, and he shot off and he went looking for it,
and a young boy stopped him, and he said to him he was
looking for this black dog and this this boy was absolutely petrified. And when
he went back into the fabian, when he went back into a fabian,
so he went into the community, he went into a pub and no one
caught his gaze. They did not want to even talk to him. So,
yes, there's so much going on. And when he actually he actually
published his findings, he's when he spoke about the killing. He said he
looked like the kind of killing the Druids might have done in a ghastly ceremony
of a full moon. And that come from Scotland Yards Chief Inspector Robert Faban,
And he wrote that in nineteen seventy two memoirs in the nineteen forties,
there was a number of sightings of these large black dogs and describers either green
or red eyes, and believe to be the messenger for the dark and more
blameful spirit. So there we have it, a community that is still steeped
in superstition, that is not talking to authorities at the fear of witchcraft.
And it gives you an insight of what is happening at that time, in
that window of space. You're having an insight what is happening. You have
a lead in Scotland, Scotland Yard, who is investigating a crime linked to
witchcraft in nineteen forties. We aren't talking about the witch trials, We're not
talking about the years they know of the witch Finder General. We're talking the
forties in Scotland Yard. And it isn't going to be a prize that this
has happened again two years later. But the more I read, the more
I realized that witchcraft is not the only otherness that he's being linked to.
Themes and the theories that are being associated to this story is a fascinating We
have a woman who we have no idea where she comes from, who she
is, how she got there. No one has claimed her. She has
not been identified in the entirety of England. There is continual publicizing of details
that someone can come forward. She has suspected her family, yet no one
is missing her. Of course, when we do not understand something, we
link it to otherness, We link it to things that are out of the
realm of understanding, because it helps us make sense of something that does not
make sense. And I understand that that is what's happened. However, the
link to the nazis if Clara Clara Bella did parachute in where is the parachute?
There was no parachute found alongside the body of Bella other than the removed
hand. I understand that it's not in the pathology results or the findings.
Maybe it wasn't added because the pathologists didn't see any relevance of it, but
it was noted in the police records perishing whatever as well. So where did
this come from? In the nineteen fifties, before the writings of mccoric,
who I hope I'm pronouncing correctly, the newspapers were still sporadically publishing requests of
information and better longing for a gleam of hope to finally know the lady's origin.
Ten years after the first discovery, someone finally reached out to the media
plane A lady who only identified herself as Anna contacted the press with a letter.
Anna indicated she not only knew the victim, but who was responsible.
And while it was in these writings that the espanage had entered the chat.
This is how the letter read. Finish your article regarding the which own crime.
By all means, they are interesting to your readers, but you will
never solve the mystery. The one person who could give you answers is now
beyond the jurisdiction of earthly courts. As much as I hate to use a
non to plume, I think you would appreciate it if you knew me.
The only clues I can give you is the person responsible of the crime died
insane in nineteen forty two, and that the victim was a Dutch was Dutch
who had arrived illegally in England in nineteen forty one. I have no wish
to recall anymore. Now, going back to declassified information, it is noted
that there was a Dutch woman who hadn't been known to be in West Midlands
in the nineteen forties that the role of the Dutch woman was to pass information
from a British soldier to a tropeze artist who appeared in sharing information that become
too knowledgeable and subsequently killed. The narrative become popular simply because of the scrutinizing
of those that worked in the industry by Nazis for information. At that time
it was almost palable. There had also been a British man connected to a
German spy that had diet certified as insane in Stafford Mental Hospital in nineteen forty
two and was related to Anna, whose real identity was Una Handsworth was Mossop.
This man was Jack Mussop, and Una had been married to him before
he's passing. The newspapers appealed to Anna to come forward to speak to the
police, where she did and in doing so revealed her true identity. Jack
allegedly confessed to being accessory to murder committed by a Dutchman called Van Roult.
Una. Before that, faith fatal Knight said that her husband, an officer,
would meet many knights, and although Van Rolt appeared to have no job,
her husband would always have more money than he left with. After meeting
him, giving her the notion he was a German spire. In March or
April in nineteen forty one, she noted her husband come home around one am,
visibly shaking, asking for a dree. He has stated he had been
driving Van Rolt's car with a Dutch woman up front, Van Rolt in the
back, and the woman began to lean in like she had passed out.
Van Rolt has reassured Jack that all was fine and directed him to some woods.
They collectively put the Dutch woman in the tree that night, with a
view that she would come to her senses for acting inappropriately the following morning.
After this, the relationship between Una and Jack broke down. On the number
of occasions that Una did see Jack after that, He told her he thought
he was losing his mind and how he kept seeing the woman leering at him
from the tree. It would be in June nineteen forty two, Una was
informed of hiss A mission in the mental hospital. Now this wasn't the only
Nazi spy and narrative of a theme that come up when terms of understanding who
Bella was. According to a Declass of five file in the Britishish National Archive,
an agent called Joseph Jacob's an inexperience, an undertrained agent was sent into
Britain to gather information on weather patterns. Jacob was said to parachute into the
Cambridge area in nineteen forty one, had broken his ankle in the drop and
was arrested by the World War two Home Guard, a defense organization representation TIVE
of the British Army. He had nothing on him except for a photo of
a woman called Clara, a singer and actress, and he also said that
she was his paramore. Jacob also declares she too was a Nazi secret agent
who was supposed to parachute into the West Midlands and contact Jacob. However,
this line of inquiry didn't go much further. Jacob was soon executed by firing
squad late in the summer of nineteen forty one. It is noted that this
would be the last execution that would take place in the Tower of London.
It is alleged that there was an m I five investigation into Jacobs. Alongside
that, another included a singer born in nineteen o six and in nineteen forty
one would have been thirty five. This person worked within the music industry in
the UK two years in fact, in the West Midlands, before the World
War had been declared. She had in that time learned impeccable English, removing
any trace of a Dutch accent. It would be though, in later years
the granddaughter of Jacob's done extensive research into his life and found a death certificate
of Clara which included her year of death as nineteen seventy two, taking place
in Berlin of poisoning. So here we are. There are many other alleged
sightings and knowledge of who Klara was, including someone who was a housemaid for
a public house, romany gypsy, so much more, but these are the
most prominent narratives that stuck out for me. Three decades after a Crook book,
the case was given a breath of life again. In two thousand and
five the case file was published and in it stated that there was a search
for Bella's body and that he had gone underway. This was so that the
body could be exhumed for DNA testing. However, the search was unsuccessful.
This was mostly due to the search happening in the wrong place. It was
assumed the burial Bella would have happened not far from the location of discovery.
However, her remains had gone to the University of Birmingham to a colleague of
the original pathologists for additional testing. The case was closed in two thousand and
five with any remains, any official records, any lab results disappearing, and
this could be put down to the potential cover up, poor record keeping,
or during the time of the investigation, air raids shuffling around made it near
and impossible to keep on top of. In two thousand and fourteen, statistical
analysis of all known data of Bella and the murder was examined by researchers Norman
Tendon and Martin Neil using the Bayesian analysis. The findings were published. They
were based following the variables that the police investigated all possible leads, exhausted every
inquiry, and that all the witnesses is were credible and this is what they
found. Now, it might not be a shocker to you to say that
it was found that ninety nine percent chance the cause of death was criminal.
You heard it here first, No, not first, but you hear it
here. It was concluded that Bella was a ninety seven percent chance not risk
two percent Dutch eighteen percent German. There was a ninety three percent chance that
Bella was alive when she was placed into the Elm, and there was a
thirty three percent chance that Jack Mossip was involved. There was also a seven
percent chance that she was involved in the intelligence services. Now Jack's involvement would
have been up to ninety five percent if four more additional witnesses had come for
It was also concluded undetermined that sadly, due to the age of the case,
it was forever deemed a mystery. There was attempts, however, in
twenty eighteen for this not to be the case. Expert Caroline Wilkinson, leading
in the area of rebuilding features and developing photos for identifying those that had sadly
passed away, had done so for Bella. These photos were published. However,
there was one thing that did remain the same no matter what was published
or information shared. Once again, there was no steps forward the hearsay of
those that were within the community. Did Bella seek shelter in the Alma herself
during their raid? Was she murdered by a lover and hid it in the
Elm? Wish romany killed by a king for participating in an activity they not
acceptable in their community thereafter all, had been a client traveling in those woods
at that time or was she a sex worker? As a sex worker in
Burma told the police a woman she had known had gone missing by Hadley Woods
three years previously, called Bella. There is going to be speculation, as
there's always been speculation. However, we are no closer to knowing who pot
Bella in the witch Elm. Thank you so much for listening. I hope
you've enjoyed hearing as much as I have enjoyed telling. If you want to
