The Murder of Timothy Smith (UK Crime Documentary 2019)
The Murder of Timothy Smith (UK Crime Documentary 2019)
The Threesome Invitation That Turned Into a Murder...
When the first responders arrived, Timothy Smith's death looked like a tragic accident.
On Thursday the 16th of March, at around 9PM, police were called to an industrial estate in Shepshed, a small commuter town in Leicestershire. A silver Ford Focus appeared to have crashed into a wall, and inside East Midlands Ambulance Service had found the body of 45-year-old Timothy Smith, a forklift instructor from Staffordshire, who lived in Tamworth, half an hour's drive away.
Unconscious and unresponsive, Smith was pronounced dead at the scene – however he was found to have injuries not consistent with a road traffic accident, and witnesses had seen two men fleeing the industrial estate. Following the post-mortem examination, it was clear that something was amiss: a stab wound to the heart had killed Smith, not the crash.
Through intensive CCTV work, an examination of Smith’s phone and online appeals from Leicestershire police, detectives placed two young men at the scene: Mark Law and Mason Casey.
Unpicking the evidence, police determined the sequence of events that led to Smith's death. Mark Law and Timothy Smith first made contact via the dating app Badoo, on which Law sent the older man a photo of his penis and the offer of a threesome. On the night of the 16th, at about 8:30PM, Smith picked up 20-year-old Law and 17-year-old Casey in Shepshed and was directed to the nearby Gelders Hall industrial estate. It was here, in what they thought was an empty car park, that Law forced a hunting knife into the stranger's chest, puncturing his heart. Smith, who was fatally injured, tried to drive away, but only managed a few metres before crashing into the wall. The two young men ran off, and Law threw the knife – which was later recovered – into a pond.
Just half an hour after meeting Law and Casey, Smith was dead.
If you're confused with this report, you’re not alone. The story of Timothy Smith's murder has a lot of holes. Why did these two men choose to murder a man they’d never met? Were there any genuine sexual motives, or was that just part of the trap? Why was Mason Casey there when, before the night of the 16th, all the communication had been solely between Smith and Mark Law?
These are all questions the police tried to answer when they arrested the pair, to varying degrees of success. What they were able to establish fairly quickly was each suspect's position: Law admitted to the murder, while Casey denied any involvement, stressing he was unaware of what would transpire when he got into Smith's car, and blaming his co-accused for the crime.
I was with Mark Law at his house, and we left there because he had a phone call off this Tim guy, Casey is quoted by the Leicester Mercury as telling investigating officers. We went to the bottom of the road and Mark was like, 'You coming?' I got in the car behind Mark and we drove to Gelders Hall, around the corner. As the car stopped, I got out to do my boots up. I finished fastening one of my boots up and Mark jumped out of the car, saying: 'Go, go – we’ve got to go now!' He was like, 'I've just stabbed him,' so I panicked and ran off, just went. I didn’t want to be involved in it. He was behind me, he was following me. He was like, 'I can’t believe I’ve just done that, I can’t believe I’ve just done that.' [...] I didn’t think he’d actually do something like this. I thought he was all just talk.
The talk Casey was referring to was Law's admission, some time before the murder, that he was interested in cannibalism, as well as a conversation between the pair about killing Michael, another man Law had met and sent sexual messages to on Badoo.
ADVERTISEMENT
During Casey's trial at Leicester Crown Court, the court heard that Mark Law had proposed a meeting with Michael at the same Gelders Hall industrial estate. In a conversation about the meet-up, the jury heard, Law had mentioned stabbing Michael in the head; and later – after he'd sent Casey screenshots of his Badoo conversation with the man – Casey had texted his friend the message Kill him, with a knife emoji.
Casey told the jury: I didn’t mean anything by it. I was humouring him, with a laugh and a joke. None of it was serious. However, the prosecutor, James House QC, said Casey had told police in his interview that he knew Law had wanted to kill Michael, and that he'd accompanied him to the industrial estate to meet him, a week before the murder of Timothy Smith.
Did you say what happens when he turns up? asked Mr House.
No, said Casey..........
Running Around Grace Dieu Forest and Blackbrook Reservoir (England, UK)
Running Around Grace Dieu Forest and Blackbrook Reservoir! It's a great place to run, mountain bike and walk the dogs. If you go the right direction, you can find Blackbrook Reservoir by crossing only 1 road. Other way, leads into Whitwick woods. A good poarking spot will be the Bull's Head in Thringstone, or, the Swallowdale/Grace Dieu Road intersection in Thringstone.
Blackbrook Reservoir
Blackbrook Reservoir is a 33.4 hectare biological Site of Special Scientific Interest between Shepshed and Whitwick in Leicestershire.The reservoir was constructed in 1796 in order to feed the Charnwood Forest Canal, which has long since vanished. The first dam constructed was an earthworks one, and this failed on 20 February 1799. In eleven minutes the reservoir was empty and as a result local farmland was ruined, sheep were drowned, and much of Shepshed and nearby Loughborough were affected by flood waters. The dam was repaired in 1801, but the canal was no longer commercially viable.
The present gravity dam was constructed in 1906 and was officially opened by the first Mayor of Loughborough Joseph Griggs. In 1957 the dam felt the effects of a magnitude 5.3 earthquake. The tremors caused heavy coping stones to shift and cracks appeared in the faces of the dam.
The reservoir has a plant community on its margins which is unique in the Midlands and only found in a few northern sites. Its unusual mix of flora includes Juncus filiformis at its most southern locations, and the lake itself has native white-clawed crayfish, where it is isolated from the invasive American signal crayfish.One Barrow Lane crosses the eastern end of the reservoir.
Grace Dieu Forest / Wood
A 1995 Tender Scheme success for North West Leicestershire District Council on the edge of Thringstone, this 3.7ha site is adjacent to existing Grace Dieu Wood. Formerly an arable field, the site creates a natural extension to Grace Dieu ancient woodland. Sycamore regeneration from Grace Dieu is being removed to allow the planted native species and self seeded native trees from the wood to grow on.
The rock feature on site consists of three different types of rock found in the area - magnesium limestone, Leicestershire granite and sandstone. Grace Dieu Priory, which is being managed as a visitor attraction at the gateway to the Forest, lies just to the north

Shopping at ASDA aka Walmart (Shepshed, Leicestershire, England)
In the UK, we have ASDA (Which is basically Wal-Mart, owned by Wal-mart, but called ASDA). Here is a mini-ASDA in Shepshed! For some reason, Wal-Mart likes to charges bunches of $$ for chips, snacks, jerky and ice cream in the US... In the UK, it's entirely the opposite. Either supply and demand or government tax I guess!

Snow the previous day. Storms predicted for the following day. So, seized the opportunity for a ride in the sunshine at lunch time. The sound of the camera mount vibrating against the brake fluid reservoir became intrusive during the recording, hence the switch to Dulcimer tunes.
