They Walk Among Us - UK True Crime
The Death Of Stuart Lubbock In Michael Barrymore's Pool - Part 2
PLEASE LISTEN TO ‘SEASON 4 - EPISODE 49’ FOR PART ONE OF THIS FOUR-PART CASE.
Stuart Lubbock, a father to two young children, was 31 when he was found lifeless, floating in a swimming pool that belonged to celebrity entertainer Michael Barrymore. Stuart was naked apart from a pair of boxer shorts. He had suffered severe internal injuries that would later be described as “horrific”. Essex Police undertook an investigation that lasted almost a year, and several arrests were made. Still, no one was ultimately charged, and the inquiry wound down (Part 2 of 4).
