Tis 90 minute webinar will showcase one of the UK's most challenging recent murder investigations: the Bournemouth Beach murder of Amie Gray and attempted murder of Leanne Miles in May 2024.

Led by Dorset Police's Major Crime Investigation Team, this high-profile case began as a Category A+ cold start murder investigation under intense national media scrutiny and public pressure. Faced with an unknown offender, limited evidence, and a dangerous suspect still at large, investigators painstakingly built a case through exceptional detective work, meticulous CCTV analysis, digital investigations, financial enquiries, witness evidence, and relentless determination.

Attendees will gain a unique insight into how a small major crime team managed hundreds of investigative actions, reviewed thousands of documents and exhibits, coordinated cross-force enquiries, and ultimately secured the conviction of Nasen Saadi despite the absence of conclusive forensic evidence.

This is a remarkable case study that demonstrates the very best of investigative policing.
