Crime Next Door - 4: A Breakthrough
Missing Persons cases are never closed. In the case of Tony Parsons - the active search had ceased. But officers were ready to revisit the case if ever new information came to light. So when a phone call came in, making an extraordinary claim to know exactly what happened to Tony, officers responded immediately.
This episode tells the story of that phone call, and the police response. Could the claims be true?
Presented by Jane MacSorley.
