Courtney Valentine-Brown was found stabbed to death in a flat on Southend-on-Sea. In the critical first two days of the investigation, a team of detectives and specialists work around the clock to catch the killers.
Over days three to six of the investigation, detectives track down those responsible for Courtney's death. One suspect names another, leading to a manhunt. In a race against the clock, the team must gather enough evidence to charge or release.
The investigation into the murder of Courtney Valentine-Brown concludes with one suspect outstanding, one on bail and one in custody. Then, detectives investigate the killing of June Knight, an elderly lady with dementia.
Detectives investigate a double stabbing in Colchester that left one homeless man, Carl Hopkins, dead and another seriously injured. A forensic search by a specially-trained dog detects a blood trail to a house believed to be used by the suspect.
The hunt is on for the unidentified person suspected of murdering Carl Hopkins. A forensic search of a property believed to be used by the suspect gives police the breakthrough they need. But they question whether the murder was in self-defense.
