Yet 17 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: ultimately it is as loose as the breeze destined, Like 18 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: everything ever given a name to one day be erased, 19 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: And what even is a fixed point on a planet 20 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: that spins unceasingly on an axis that orbits the Sun, 21 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: that cycles the Milky Way, a galaxy that in turn 22 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: is hurtling through space toward the Andromeda Galaxy, its nearest neighbor. 23 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: In truth, nothing is ever truly fixed. Nothing is permanent, 24 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: because if there is one universal constant, it is change, 25 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: a fact easily demonstrated by how a place and our 26 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: associations with it will evolve over time. Take the town 27 00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: of Tobmaden itself, once a sustained dynamo of the Industrial Revolution, 28 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: at the heart of the British cotton industry. Today it 29 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: stands as a picturesque and progressive jewel in the thick 30 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: of the Yorkshire countryside, at the heart of a weird 31 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: and vibrant local music scene. Once in a while, however, 32 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: something so extraordinary occurs that, if not able to resolve 33 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: in permanence completely, can leave its mark so deeply on 34 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: a place that it appears destined to shape our impression 35 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: of it forevermore. For Todmiden, that something occurred just over 36 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:38,959 Speaker 1: forty years ago. Today, it'll be some time before it's forgotten. 37 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: You're listening to Unexplained, and I'm Richard McClain smith. Some 38 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: claim the name Todmerden originates from two old Saxon words 39 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: meaning death, Todd and mort, giving the modern English translation 40 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: of death death wood. Others, however, believed the name has 41 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: a rather more prosaic topographic origin, meaning simply Totter's Boundary Valley, 42 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: being as it is nestled at the confluence of three 43 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 1: valleys of the Pennines, a rupture of mountains and hills 44 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: that dangles like a crooked spine through the north of England. 45 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: It was there, not far from Tommadon Town Center, late 46 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: in the evening of June tenth, nineteen eighty, that a 47 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: young couple were roused from sleep by a peculiar noise, 48 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: like a great surge of water moving to and fro, 49 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: as they described it, that seemed to be coming from 50 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: somewhere high above their house. Grabbing their jackets, the couple 51 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: raced to the front door and stepped out cautiously into 52 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: the cool night air. A thick mist had formed in 53 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: the sky, from which a light drizzle was now falling, 54 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: through which they could just about hear that peculiar sound, 55 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: now moving further and further away. When all was silent 56 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: once more. The couple turned to head back inside, when 57 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: suddenly there appeared a soft light from somewhere deep within 58 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: the mist, pulsating steadily from green to red. The couple 59 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: watched in quiet awe as the light moved higher and higher, 60 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: and then completely disappeared from view. It was just approaching 61 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: three forty five pm the following day, as thirty three 62 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: year old police officer Alan Godfrey took another drag of 63 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: his cigarette and gazed out at Tobendon's rain splattered high Street. 64 00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: Though he loved it here, there was little more miserable 65 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 1: than being lumbered with street patrol on days like these, 66 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: when the clouds hung dark and low and all color 67 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: seemed leached from the surrounding hills and fields. Then Alan's 68 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 1: radio crackled into life. It was a call out for 69 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: any officers in the area to make their way to 70 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: Tomlin's coal yard at the back of Tobladen train station. 71 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: Alan answered the corps, telling them he could be there 72 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 1: in ten minutes, then asked what the situation was. A 73 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: body's being found came back the blunt reply. Alan's eyes widened. 74 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: Taking a final drag on the cigarette, he flicked the 75 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: butt into the street and had just stepped into the 76 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: rain when a patrol car pulled up fast beside him. 77 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: Much to Alan's relief, PC Malcolm Agley rolled down the 78 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: window and shouted for Alan to jump in.

It was still raining 99 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: as they made their way up the long dirt track 100 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: behind the station toward the yard, Pulling into it at 101 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: just after four p m. It was hard to miss 102 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: the ambulance parked up in the center, sitting stark and 103 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: white against the black and gray of the yard. Stepping 104 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: out of the car, Allan and Malcolm put on their 105 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: hats and made their way toward the three men sheltering 106 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: under the coal hopper in the middle of the yard, 107 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: next to which was a large pile of anthracite coal 108 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: roughly fifteen feet high, stacked up against a wall of 109 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: railway sleepers. I think you have a murder, said one 110 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: of the paramedics, glumly. Allyan looked about the yard for 111 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: any sign of the body. It's up there, said another 112 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 1: of the men, pointing to the top of the coal heap. 113 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: The man was Trevor Parker, the yard owner's twenty five 114 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 1: year old son. As he went on to explain, he'd 115 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: seem nothing unusual when he arrived for work at eight 116 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: a m. Having stayed at the yard until eleven a m. 117 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: He then left to carry out some checks at the 118 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: family's other coal yards before returning at four p m. 119 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: That was when he saw the body lying in plain 120 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: sight at the top of the central coal pile. He'd 121 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: assumed it was a drunk at first, sleeping off a hangover, 122 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 1: but then the horrible realization had eventually dawned on him, 123 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: the eeriness of it amplified by the quiet and bleak 124 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: industrial surroundings. Allyn took notes as Malcolm scrambled up the 125 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: sleepers and peered over the edge, then turned back to 126 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: Allan with the strange look on his face. As everything 127 00:08:53,520 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: all right, asked Allyn. You'd better take a look, replied Malcolm. 128 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: Alan waited for Malcolm to jump down before making his 129 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: own way up, then almost fell back, startled by the 130 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: sight of the man's face appearing only inches from his 131 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: own as he looked over the wall. It wasn't the 132 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: first dead body he'd seen by any stretch, such things 133 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: being an unfortunate occupational hazard, but this was different. The 134 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 1: way the man's eyes seemed to be staring straight up 135 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: at the sky, along with the slightly parted lips bent 136 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: into a grimace. It looked for all the world as 137 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:47,839 Speaker 1: though he died of fright. Despite the initial shock at 138 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 1: seeing the man's face, Alan's professionalism soon kicked in. From 139 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: then on, things only got stranger. Although the man was 140 00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 1: wearing a brown suit jacket, and quickly noticed there was 141 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 1: only a string vest underneath, while there was something odd 142 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 1: about the fit of the trousers too, as if they'd 143 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: been buttoned up in the wrong way. Then he noticed 144 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: something else unusual through the man's short hair, which appeared 145 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: to have been cut recently in a rough and crude manner. 146 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: Alan noticed a series of small burn marks no bigger 147 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: than a penny around his crown, and the same type 148 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: of injury on the side of the man's neck, while 149 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: at the nape of the neck there was a small 150 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 1: open wound and something viscous smeared over the top of it. 151 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: Though there was nothing obvious to suggest the man had 152 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: been murdered, it was odd how clean his clothes were, 153 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: considering he'd been found on top of a coal heap 154 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 1: in the rain, suggesting that at the very least, whether 155 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 1: he'd been murdered or not, somebody had put him there 156 00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: with no sign of rigor mortis. It was clear that 157 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: whatever had taken place had happened fairly recently. Alan lent 158 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 1: back and took a moment to gather his thoughts, then 159 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,959 Speaker 1: shouted down to Malcolm to call it in. A short 160 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: time later, as Allan and Malcolm were coordining off the area, 161 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: a Sergeant Neverson and PC Birmingham arrived from the local 162 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 1: Criminal Investigation Department or CID, along with Jack Parker, the 163 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: owner of the yard, to take a look. They were 164 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: joined soon after by a police surgeon, Doctor AD's Head, who, 165 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: after a rudimentary assessment, was unable to determine the cause 166 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 1: of death, nor was any wallet or forms of ID 167 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 1: found on the body. By five thirty pm, another seven 168 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 1: police personnel had arrived to inspect the scene, including the 169 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: divisional head of CID, Detective Chief Inspector Baynes. Alan lit 170 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: another cigarette and watched them all busying themselves, unable to 171 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 1: shake the image of the man's terrified face from his 172 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 1: mind as the rain continued to fall. By six thirty 173 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: the body was finally brought down from the heap and 174 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: taken to nearby Hebden Bridge for a post mortem. After 175 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: taking everything into account, it was concluded that the man 176 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: had most likely been murdered, but just how exactly would 177 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: remain to be seen. As dusk fell across the yard 178 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: and the rain finally eased up, Alan and Malcolm looked 179 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: for clues as to how the man might have got 180 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 1: to the top of the pile. No cold deliveries had 181 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: been scheduled for the past few days, so there was 182 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: no chance he'd been dumped accidentally from an unsuspecting truck driver. 183 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: As for finding a useful footprint amongst all the scuffs 184 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,679 Speaker 1: and impressions made by the many individuals who had been 185 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 1: on the site that evening, they could that too. In 186 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: the end, they found only an unfamiliar set of tire 187 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: tracks close to the base of the coal heap that 188 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: Jack Parker, the site's owner, was sure did not belong 189 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: to any of the vehicles used on site. With a 190 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: little else to go on, however, and with CID now 191 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 1: formally taking over the case, at eight PM, Alan and 192 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: Malcolm called it a night. I share a bed with 193 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: two Pro bowl quarterbacks, an Olympic swimmer, and a national 194 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 1: women's soccer star. I should explain when I heard how 195 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: many elite athletes sleep on a molecule mattress. I ordered one. 196 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: Molecule is not like any other mattress in a box. 197 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: Their sleep scientists literally created the world's most perfect mattress. 198 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: It has six times the airflow of my old mattress, 199 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,959 Speaker 1: so it keeps me cool or night. It has zone 200 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: reflex layers that are just with me in all my 201 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,000 Speaker 1: weird sleep positions, so I never awakened with a stiff 202 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: neck or a sore back. And it's antimicrobial. And if 203 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson sleeps on a molecule and calls it his 204 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: best sleep ever, who am I to argue? So I 205 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: tried it and Russ, Yeah, I call him. Russ was right. 206 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 1: Molecule mattress is how elite athletes and I get the 207 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: best sleep ever. Audio molecule mattress and sleep on it 208 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: risk free for a hundred nights. If you don't have 209 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 1: your deepest, most restorative sleep ever, return it. Go to 210 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:28,479 Speaker 1: onmolecule dot com and save twenty percent with promo code unexplained. 211 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: That's O N M O L ECU L dot com again, 212 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: save twenty percent with promo code unexplained, but onmolecule dot 213 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: com later that night in hebden Bridge home office, pathologist 214 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: doctor Alan Edwards conducted the postmortem on the body. Despite 215 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: the initial suspicions, Edwards came to a startling conclusion the 216 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 1: man had died simply of heart failure, most likely due 217 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: to a combination of emphysema and yschemic heart disease. In 218 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: other words, he died of natural causes. Edwards determined the 219 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 1: man's death to have occurred sometime between eleven fifteen am 220 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 1: and one fifteen pm that day, suggesting that whatever had 221 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: happened had occurred at precisely the moment that Trevor Parker 222 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: was away from the yard. As for the peculiar markings 223 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: on the man's scalp and neck, Edwards suggested they were 224 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 1: caused by contact with some kind of destructive liquid, most 225 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: likely and acid. Interestingly, these injuries were estimated to have 226 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: been inflicted on June ninth, two days before the man's death. 227 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: Edwards was less sure about the large wound at the 228 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 1: base of the neck. However, a sample of the strange 229 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: substance found smeared across it was sent to a home 230 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: office lab in nearby Weatherbee for testing. After receiving doctor 231 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: Edwards's findings, CID decided they were not dealing with the 232 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: murder investigation after all, believing instead that the man, most 233 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: likely homeless and in an inebriated state, had simply crawled 234 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:21,080 Speaker 1: up onto the coal pile and fallen asleep, only to 235 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 1: then die there. As a result, c I D effectively 236 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: passed on the case, leaving Allan and Malcolm, in their 237 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: capacity as first responders to the scene, with the responsibility 238 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: of finding the man's identity and informing his next of 239 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: kin about his death. For the next few days, while 240 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: ads asking for information were run in the local paper, 241 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: Allan and Malcolm trawed local pubs and shops armed with 242 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: images of the mysterious man, asking members of the public 243 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: if they'd ever seen him before, but no one claimed 244 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: to know him. It was almost a week later when 245 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 1: Allen was sent the profile of a missing person's report 246 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: whose details tallied closely with those of the unidentified man. 247 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: The missing person was fifty six year old Sigmund Yan Adamski, 248 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 1: who'd been missing for six days, not from Tommidon, but Tingley, 249 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: a smaller town located about twenty miles away, and so 250 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,119 Speaker 1: it was on June eighteenth, that Allen and the detective 251 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: constable who'd been placed in charge of the case, made 252 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 1: their way to Adamski's house in Tingley. After arriving at 253 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: the modest property on Hornfield Crescent, the two police officers 254 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: were greeted at the door by a concerned looking young man, 255 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: who promptly invited them inside and dushered them into the 256 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: living room. Allan and his colleague walked into the living 257 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: room to find a frail looking, middle aged woman in 258 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: a wheelchair with a look of intense worry on her face. 259 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 1: The woman introduced herself as Sigmund's wife, Leo Cadia Adamski, 260 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: but asked them to call her Lottie and invited them 261 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: to take a seat. Still hoping that the police had 262 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: made a mistake, it was only when she saw the 263 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,520 Speaker 1: photos they'd brought of the man in the coal yard 264 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: that the reality of it all came crashing down on her. 265 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: Through tears, she explained that her husband, Ziggy as she 266 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,959 Speaker 1: called him, had gone missing back on Friday, June sixth, 267 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: after leaving the house around three thirty pm to fetch 268 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: some groceries from their local store. His disappearance was completely 269 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: unfathomable to her, since the store was barely two hundred 270 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: yards away, and they were due to attend the wedding 271 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:57,000 Speaker 1: of Sigmund's goddaughter the next day, something they'd all been 272 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: looking forward to. When Alan explained where they'd found the 273 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:05,639 Speaker 1: body exactly, Lottie was confused, since she was certain that 274 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: her husband had never even been to Todmidon before. With 275 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,919 Speaker 1: Lottie unable to escort the police back to hebden Bridge 276 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 1: to formally identify the body, the young man who opened 277 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: the door for them went with them instead. Later that afternoon, 278 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: he confirmed the dead man's identity as Sigmund Adamski. It 279 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 1: was strange, though, he said, when going through Adamski's clothes 280 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: shortly after, he wasn't wearing any of it when he 281 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: left his house for the last time. His hair was 282 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: also different, with the man certain that it must have 283 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: been cut since he'd gone missing. As for the injuries, 284 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: as the coroner suggested they had indeed happened some time 285 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 1: after he left the house, it was all a little peculiar, 286 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: to say the least. Later that day, Alan and the 287 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: detective constable turned to Lottie and Sigmund's home to see 288 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: what more they could find out. Both Lottie and Sigmund 289 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: arrived in England as refugees from Poland, having fled from 290 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: the German army's invasion of Poland in nineteen thirty nine. 291 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,679 Speaker 1: The pair had then met in Leeds and eventually married 292 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: in nineteen fifty one. On the day he disappeared, Sigmund 293 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 1: went shopping in the morning with his cousin Laska, who 294 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: had been staying with him and Lottie for the previous 295 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: couple of months. When they returned, the family sat and 296 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 1: ate lunched together, after which Sigmund left the house, saying 297 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,480 Speaker 1: he was going to buy some potatoes from the local store, 298 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: something they needed for the food they were going to 299 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: prepare for the wedding. As Lottie recalled, it had been 300 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: a bright, sunny day when she saw her husband for 301 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 1: the last time, and that he'd taken his wallet with 302 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: twenty pounds cash and had worn a stripy jacket, none 303 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: of which was found on him in the coal lyard. 304 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: The couple had been happy, she said, as far as 305 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: she knew, and her Ziggy a devoted husband. In fact, 306 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: he'd recently decided to retire from work in order to 307 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: become her full time career as she suffered from multiple sclerosis. 308 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 1: The decision had also been prompted by Zigmund's own ill health, 309 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: namely his chronic bronchitis, brought on by twenty three years 310 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: of working as a miner at the nearby loft House Colliery. 311 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: The mining company had refused his application at first, but 312 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 1: eventually agreed to the request after an appeal. Lottie had 313 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 1: received the letter confirming their decision two days after her 314 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: husband went missing. Lottie just couldn't understand what possibly could 315 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: have happened, telling the officers that her husband was well 316 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 1: liked and respected and had no enemy anywhere. Unable to 317 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: shake the feeling that, despite the fact he died from 318 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: natural causes, something more sinister had taken place, Alan too, 319 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: had begun to suspect something a little more complicated had occurred. 320 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,400 Speaker 1: Soon after speaking with Lottie, Alan and the DC made 321 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 1: a visit to the local grocery store, where the owner 322 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: confirmed that Zigmund had indeed bought potatoes from his shop 323 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: shortly after three thirty pm on the sixth, making him 324 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: the last known person to see a Damski alive. Back 325 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: at the station, Malcolm was busy calling round hospitals to 326 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: see if they had any record of a fifty six 327 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: year old man fitting Zigmund's description being treated for burns 328 00:22:47,640 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 1: or any other injuries, but they had nothing. A few 329 00:22:52,480 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: days later, Allan came across some intriguing information. We often 330 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: talk about how the advent of streaming has revolutionized the 331 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 1: way we engage with audio and visual content, placing countless 332 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 1: numbers of films, TV shows, and music tracks at our fingertips. 333 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: But did you know this has also been happening for 334 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 1: books too. Described as the Netflix for books, scribbt is 335 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: quite simply the largest digital library in the world, and 336 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: all of it accessible from your favorite device.

Allan quickly realized, if the man's recollection 355 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 1: and the coroner's calculations were correct, Adamski must have died 356 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: before his body made it to the coal yard. In 357 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 1: other words, somebody must have put him there. Alan let 358 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: the revelation eat away at him for a few days 359 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: before finally compiling a report of his findings, strongly advising 360 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: CID that they should treat the case as a possible murder. 361 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: In response, a senior CID officer was sent down from 362 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: their headquarters in nearby Halifax to discuss the case with him. 363 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 1: Their meeting proved to be a very brief one, however, 364 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 1: when the man told Alan in no uncertain terms to 365 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: forget the case and move on. A little put out, 366 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: but with no choice to accept the man's instructions, Alan 367 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 1: did his best to forget it and concentrate on the 368 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 1: rest of his many responsibilities, And though he still couldn't 369 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: quite shake that gruesome image of the terrified look on 370 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 1: the man's face, he soon began to put the whole 371 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 1: thing behind him. Then, in September, something else unusual occurred. 372 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: It was Malcolm who alerted him to the front page 373 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: article in the local paper regarding the result of the 374 00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: inquest into Sigmun Dadamski's death. The coroner had returned an 375 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:06,120 Speaker 1: open verdict in the case. It was strange because, as 376 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 1: far as Alan could make out, the decision had been 377 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 1: reached without drawing on the vital information he'd uncovered. The 378 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:18,719 Speaker 1: full report only seemed to cloud things even further. Wherever 379 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: Adamski had been in the five days between leaving his 380 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 1: house and being found dead, he'd been eating well and 381 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: was found to have only one day's worth of stubble 382 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:32,159 Speaker 1: growth on his face. He was also judged not to 383 00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 1: have been sleeping rough in that time. No evidence of 384 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: a stroke or any other brain injury was found that 385 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: might account for the suffering of temporary amnesia. As an 386 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 1: explanation as to why he hadn't returned home, Clearly Sigmund Damski, 387 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: either by his own volition or under duress, had been somewhere, 388 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 1: and when you take into account the recent and crudely 389 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 1: cut hair, some one had most liked he beam with him. 390 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: In that time, little was added about the peculiar burns, 391 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 1: only that it wasn't clear if they'd been inflicted accidentally 392 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 1: or not. As for the peculiar liquid found smeared on 393 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: the wound at the base of the neck, forensic scientists 394 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: at the Home Office laboratory were unable to identify it. 395 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 1: By mid November, with the nights having long ago closed 396 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,880 Speaker 1: in and the shadows of the valleys growing darker, the 397 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: fresh chill of winter had descended. On one especially dark night, 398 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: two police squad cars made their way into the hills 399 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:49,640 Speaker 1: about ten miles east of Tommidon, toward Cold Edge Dams, 400 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: a small spot of countryside just to the north of Halifax. 401 00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 1: Their headlights beamed momentarily through the black hedgerows lining the road. 402 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: They turned in and out of the corners. Inside the 403 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: first vehicle, w PC Julie Baxter and PC Howard Turnpenny 404 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: kept their eyes firmly on the road as they drew 405 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: closer to a local dog kennel where a number of 406 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: stolen motorbikes were apparently being stored. Meanwhile, behind them, PC Porter, 407 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:26,439 Speaker 1: traveling with his police dock, suddenly found himself distracted by 408 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 1: a peculiar electric blue light hanging in the sky above them. 409 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: Unable to keep his eyes off it, he couldn't shake 410 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: the sense that it was following them. After finally arriving 411 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: at the kennel, Porter jumped out of the car and 412 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: beckoned his colleagues over to join him. Pointing at the sky, 413 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,959 Speaker 1: he drew their attention to the strange light, now moving 414 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 1: at incredible speed from one side of the valley to 415 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: the other. And there they stood for the next few 416 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: minutes in the quiet darkness, wrestling with what it was 417 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 1: exactly they were looking at, until the light turned suddenly, 418 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: swooped down toward them, and shot off down the valley, 419 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: heading toward Todmodon. A week later, but just before ten 420 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: pm on November twenty eighth, down at Tobodon police station. Allan, 421 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: now working the night shift, laced up his standard order 422 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: Doc Martin boots and stood up to check his uniform 423 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: in the mirror. Then, after brushing some dust from the 424 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 1: shoulder of his jacket and straightening his hat, he headed 425 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: out to begin his shift. It was the night that 426 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: would change his life forever.
