Full Of It #90 - The Kidnapping of Shannon Matthews (Patreon)

We've been dancing around this for years. Let's finally settle in to talk about the dumbest criminal plot you ever heard of. In February 2008 a nine-year-old schoolgirl named Shannon Matthews disappeared from her West Yorkshire town in northern England. After an enormous missing persons investigation was launched in co-operation with hundreds of volunteers from her hometown, it all went absolutely tits up when people started to suspect that her own family might be a bunch of complete fucking morons.
