Crime

All the latest true crime and court stories from murders to minor offences that may be of interest including the UK's most dangerous killer who is locked in an underground glass box.

In the UK the Home Office is responsible for the reduction and prevention of crime and oversees policing. The Ministry of Justice oversees prosecution and sentencing. For both victims and perpetrators, crime can mean lives are never the same again.

High-profile cases of serious violent crimes, including murders and assaults, often capture public attention and raise concerns about public safety. While individual cases vary in severity, some have had a profound impact on communities and sparked national debates about crime prevention and law enforcement strategies.
