UK True Crime: The Murder of Carrie Slater
Video Overview & Insights
Carrie Slater was 37 years old when she was found with a catastrophic head injury inside a quiet bungalow in the village of Long Clawson.
Addicted to heroin more likely he wanted money to buy some and she wouldnât hand her hard earned money over
When her partner, Richard Basson, called 999, he claimed it was an accident⌠that Carrie had somehow walked into a pool cue during an argument over a cigarette. But within moments of arriving at the scene, police knew something wasnât right. The injury didnât match the story, the evidence didnât line up, and as detectives began to piece together what had really happened inside that house, Richard's version of events began to unravel.
What they would uncover was a far darker reality... one involving an illegal firearm, a history of violence, and a carefully constructed lie that Richard hoped would save him from the consequences of his actions.
Wow you know how to narrate a sinister storey, God bless you girl.
In this episode of REDRUM, we examine the final hours of Carrie Slaterâs life, the controlling relationship that preceded her death, and the forensic evidence that exposed the truth behind a story so implausible it shocked even experienced investigators. From the chilling 999 call to the courtroom, this is a case raises unsettling questions about coercion, accountability, and how far someone will go to cover up the unthinkable.

@FuruhaJabulaAs a person who had been in abusive relationships most of my life, I can tell you that people just don't understand the psychology behind why women in this situation keep going back to the abuser.
I am not sure I can even explain it now that I have finally gotten out of that situation.
I know in my case, I was made to feel like he was the best I would ever find, and that I was fat and ugly and that no one else would want me. I was literally told this by my abusers.
I think it also comes down to the woman's personality, and a lot of those women, including me, just couldn't face being alone.
But most of all, and this is something that perhaps is not well known about abusive relationships, is that leaving the abuser, the stalking, the harassment, the sabotage, the fear, the basic hell that the abuser puts you thru trying to get you back.....sometimes it's easier to go back or to just stay to avoid the nightmare they can and do put you thru.
I wish Carrie could have gotten out in time to save her life.
RIP Carrie. đ˘đ˘

@SmartyKOTRCommenting for the algorithm. Thanks for all your hard work! xo
@foxbelIâve been following you for years i know you focus on podcasting more but this channel is brilliant you should have so many more subscribers imo! I listened to a collab with you and Adam lately and you were talking about some behind the scenes stuff it was cool. This case is so tragic he was a ticking time bomb it wasnât if heâd kill her but when she deserved so much better RIP lovely Carrie đŞ˝
@ShonaPeterson13Easily my new favourite true crime channel. Love the accent. đ from QLD, Australia.
@BR3K26I have been listening to your podcasts for years!! But this is the first time Iâve watched one!! Youâre so beautiful Grace!! â¤. Thank you for your podcasts!! I listen to them in bed and your soothing voice helps me to sleep!! X
@TheJule2015Them eyes are lush!
@Andrew-proudwhiteWait, wouldn't he have had to have blood and material on the stick, where it went into her?
@sarafrikinbeara8:42 The realization that he had stabbed her in the bullet hole with a cue stick, without it even needing to be said yet.... Induces actual guttural sickness in me.
@sarafrikinbearaWhat a whiney, repulsive professional "victim." He's the kind of weak weasel who doesn't do well in prison. Good.
@JoJoHOPPE-i7jIf he was a heroin addict & had used close to the time of the crime , unless he had also used a stimulant as well he should have been in a more sedated kind of state NOT an aggressive one . However if he was lacking his usual dose its very possible that he was asking for money and in an extremely aggravated state -- aggravated enough to take a life , which he did .
@pamelalapierre6678My my my, you are a fine looking young lady! Thanks for the upload.
@slappyknocker5He did not say she walked into it, are you watching something else, the very first thing he says is he hit her.
@AmandaBell-lc7ukIt a good video
@The_Blacklist_Vault375Happy Easter to One and All!! Much đŤśđź Grace from the US!!
(Please donât hold it against me, as I too am appalled by this incompetent tyrant and his entire Gestapo administration)
Tragic, truly heartbreaking and unacceptable. I am so sorry that Carrie lost her life to this vicious, cruel and abusive POS that tormented her for over a period of 15 years!!! Men like this arenât men as they are incapable of being a âmanâ, they thrive on beating down, abusing and violating women that they claim to âloveâ. That isnât love, but many, many times a death sentence for women. Men like this never stop or leave their victims alone until they have killed them! We must start raising our sons to be better and to teach them that THIS is not love, itâs controlling, manipulation and violence and it is not acceptable!! My heart is broken for Carrie Slaters family and loved ones. RIP Carrie Slater đď¸đď¸
@NatureLover-62â¤â¤ great a new channel to me xx
@janicemarshall768Nice one, cheers Graceđ°đŁđĽâ¤ď¸đđ! Buuut... what are you talking about; isn't that what you do whenever you're upset - impale yourself with a pool stick? I'm only a couple of minutes in but you're not suggesting the officers didn't believe him, are you? Impossible!
@CombavskiThanks for the video. What a tragic story. Happy Easter
