How to get away with Murder – 19th October 2024

Can you plan the perfect murder and get away with it?
Many people think they can, and in this event, we look at forensic and other evidence that Police use in their investigation of murders.
Diane talks you through the types of evidence Police use to help them solve murders and you will soon realise it is not as easy as you might think to kill someone and get away with it.
Modern science and technology have made it very difficult to commit such a crime and remain undetected.

After considering everything at the Police’s disposal to solve a murder, participants are split into teams to devise what they think would be the perfect murder.
Will they get away with it or will they fall into the trap so many do and leave something obvious that will scupper them?
No one has yet been able to come up with something that Diane hasn’t been able to pull apart and find the pitfalls. Will you be the first?

Tickets include a 3 course dinner and arrival drink.
