ART OF CRIME//CRIME OF ART 2:

Untold: The Daniel Morgan Murder

Thursday 27th September 2017

‘This is not a whodunnit. It’s a story about the biggest cover–up in the history of British police, and how they got away with it.” – Peter Jukes (UNTOLD podcast creator)


Private Investigator Daniel Morgan was murdered in cold blood, with an axe to the head, in the car park of the Golden Lion pub, Sydenham, south London, on 10th March 1987.


Thirty years on, after five failed police investigations and an ongoing inquiry, Daniel’s murder is now the most investigated in British history – yet it remains unsolved.


The phone hacking scandal that closed the News of the World was big, but that was just the tip of the iceberg. At the bottom of that iceberg of ‘dark arts’ – hacking, bugging, and bribing bent cops – is the body of Daniel Morgan. The truth behind his killing is obscured by a web of corruption and cover–ups.


In the second installment of ART OF CRIME//CRIME OF ART, writer Austin Collings will host an evening with journalists Peter Jukes and Deeivya Meir, creators of the number one hit podcast – UNTOLD – which attempts to skin the slippery cat of the Morgan mystery whilst also uncovering insidious links to many other shameful secrets at the core of recent British history, including the Stephen Lawrence case and Rupert Murdoch’s vice–like grip on the nations news coverage.
