24 Hours in Police Custody

S07E08 Living Amongst Us

The Bedfordshire Police are faced with the alarming rise in crimes involving the sexual exploitation and grooming of minors by predators. In a sting operation, a man is tricked into thinking he’s meeting a 13-year-old girl, only to be apprehended by self-styled 'paedophile hunters'. Shortly after this arrest, the investigation takes a startling turn when officers respond to a report of an elderly man discovered severely injured by the roadside, with a significant brain hemorrhage.
