Episode 10 - The Unsolved Murder of Tracey Thompson

Loading player...
In March 2005, Carol Thompson received the news that no mother should ever have to hear. The body of her 24-year-old daughter Tracey, who had been missing for a week, had been found on a piece of agricultural land just outside Benoni.
While that call ended all hope for her safe return and the life that their family had lived together, it started another journey for Carol. She would soon discover that the inadequacies she had experienced from the police and justice system during the week that her daughter was missing were not a once-off occurrence. For the next two years, Carol Thompson fought the system and individuals within it to do their jobs and solve the murder of her daughter. https://www.takealot.com/blood-on-her hands/PLID54630371/product-information https://www.facebook.com/Betrayed.Carol.Thompson/ Buy Blood on her Hands · Visit Carol Thompson's FB page · Instagram · Pinterest · Facebook · YouTube · Twitter · LinkedIn
