This time we look at one of the most heart-wrenching and complex cases of recent years – the murder of 11-year-old Rhys Jones in Liverpool. Shot while walking home from football practice in 2007, Rhys was an innocent victim of gang rivalries and his death shocked the nation. But behind the headlines lay a web of fear, silence, and intimidation. In the final edition of this series, former Met Commissioner Bernard Hogan-Howe and ex-Mirror editor Alison Phillips examine how detectives pursued justice in a community gripped by trauma, where witnesses were too afraid to speak – and the suspect was barely older than the victim. How do you solve a crime when no one dares talk?

Presented by Bernard Hogan-Howe and Alison Phillips. Audio production by Tom Taylor. Music by Simon Williams. Produced by Managing Editor Jacob Jarvis and Group Editor Andrew Harrison. Executive Producer: Martin Bojtos. Thanks to Helen Purvis at Knight Ayton Management. CRIME SCENE is a Podmasters Production
