Show Notes
In 1995, 15-year-old Naomi Smith left her home in Nuneaton, Warwickshire — and never returned. What followed was a case that would shock a community, expose uncomfortable truths, and leave lasting scars on a town that thought it was safe. In this episode, Bethan explores Naomi’s life, the events leading up to her murder, and the investigation that followed — asking how something so brutal could happen in broad daylight, and whether justice ever truly feels like enough.
