Soil expert helped snare Breaking Bad killer Alexander Pacteau for killing of student nurse
A soil expert has told how she helped catch the killer of Irish student Karen Buckley because dirt on his car had been missed when he had it cleaned.
But Professor Lorna Dawson told how some soil which remained on the car's tyres proved crucial in the case. Her analysis of the soil proved the car had been at Dawsholm Park in Glasgow where Karen's handbag was dumped. Analysis of dirt found on Pacteau's boots also showed he had recently been at the farm.
On the programme, an Irish charity who supported Karen's family throughout their ordeal thanked Professor Dawson for her work on the case.
