Download 55. Mystery call to Noah
A special series from The State of Us podcast. In the summer of 2020, 14-year-old Noah Donohoe went missing in Belfast. Six days later his body was found in a storm drain. His disappearance and death have dominated headlines for five and a half years. The inquest into his death will, for the first time, lay out the facts and evidence in this case. In this special series from The State of Us podcast, Tara Mills and Declan Harvey take you inside the courtroom, bringing you the evidence as it unfolds each day. A mystery call was made to Noah’s phone from his own number on the night before he went missing. A digital forensics expert told the inquest he couldn’t explain it.
Guidance: References in this episode to the ‘Holiday Inn Express’ relate solely to a mobile phone cell mast which is on top of the hotel. There is no suggestion that a call was made from within the hotel. This episode has been edited for accuracy.
