Mens Rea: A true crime podcast
Society & Culture
In August 2000, 21 year old Julie Tennant went missing from her home in Ballymena. Her parents searched desperately for her, while RUC officers began a search for her. They eventually identified a man she had last been seen with - but when he heard police were searching his home he went on the run.
This episode was researched and written by Aileen Spearin.
