Wrongly Accused: The Annette Hewins Story - 3. Investigation Innuendoes

In October 1995 police launch a triple murder investigation in Merthyr Tydfil, following an arson attack that killed a mother and two children. Crime scene investigators find a washing up liquid bottle and a can of Coke both containing petrol. But who committed such an evil crime?

After a television appeal and the fingerprinting of the entire Gurnos community police are confident of new lines of enquiry, but 4 months later no arrests ware made. Pressure is on for results.

Then South Wales Police, make an announcement of multiple arrests. Donna Clarke, Denise Sullivan and Annette Hewins are arrested and charged with triple murder. How did the police investigation lead to the three local women? Nicole Jacob, the daughter of Annette Hewins, examines the investigation to find out how it arrived at her Mum’s front door.
