In July 2010, Raoul Moat went on the run after murdering one man, shooting his former partner and blinding a police officer. For six days, one of the biggest manhunts in British history gripped the country. But could it have been prevented?
In this episode, Andy Hughes and Neil Basu revisit the case, examining the missed warnings, the police response and the dramatic final stand-off in Rothbury.
They also examine Moat’s accomplices, the controversy surrounding police communications and how a violent killer became a cult figure for some. What went wrong, and what can the case teach us about policing a major manhunt?
