S02E07 | Dale Tarbox | The Murder of Susan Howells
I tell the story of Dale Tarbox and Susan Howells in this episode.
Dale killed Susan in his rented Bradford apartment in February 2019 and attempted to cremate her body by using a garden incinerator bin.
After that plan failed, he enlisted the help of Keith Wadsworth, and the pair buried Susan's body in a shallow grave at Whitegates Caravan Park in Doncaster.
Dale Tarbox was handed a life sentence with an initial minimum term of 16 years, which was extended to 18 years when Solicitor General Michael Ellis stepped in not long after the trial had concluded.
Keith Wadsworth was sentenced to serve three years and seven months in prison for assisting an offender and for the unlawful burial of Susan's body.
