Leaving the Nightclub: Episode 345

UK True Crime Podcast

For 18 year old Katie Rackliff it was just a normal night out. She had recently split up with her boyfriend and her friends thought it would do her good to get out for the evening.
But there was confusion at the end of the evening after the nightclub and Katie didn't go home with her friends as planned. Instead, she met a brutal and terrifying death.
In this episode of the UK true Crime podcast I look at the terrible murder of Katie Rackliff.
