Identity of man in taxi 'covered up' up by police in serial killer 'Bible John' case, new BBC podcast claims
The Bible John murders remain unsolved more than 50 years after they were committed.
The high-profile investigation into the murders was one of the biggest ever staged in Scotland but despite a manhunt that saw police interview more than 7,000 people and take 4,000 statements, no arrests were ever made. They also wondered why they then took him to a small police office in Hamilton rather than their Glasgow base.
They said a man who had been a bouncer at the Barrowland Ballroom on the night Helen died also said the man in the photograph was the one he had seen. Helen's sister Jean was not sure. Jim McEwan tells the podcast: "He doesn't appear anywhere in the initial statements. It was us that uncovered him. John Irvine McInnes does not appear in the 1969 enquiry, anywhere."
