Peak True Crime

Old Whittington, 2020When paramedics arrived at the home of Shannon Marsden and her boyfriend Stephan Boden in the early hours of Christmas Day 2020, it wasn't just the squalor of the place that shocked them.

The reality of his situation however became clear almost instantly. A victim of violence and neglect, how could a child who should have been one of the most protected in the county been allowed to die in such tragic circumstances?https://www.instagram.com/invites/contact/?i=i7vvfh6jwko5&utm_content=pcf5bqaFacebookhttps://www.facebook.com/groups/503422054656504Twitterhttps://twitter.com/peaktruecrime?t=qpihTIiIU5jiBEWF3xkGsQ&s=09Music by Serge Quadradohttps://pixabay.com/users/sergequadrado-24990007/
