Major case updates: what happened next

2024 to 2026

The verdict is rarely the end of the story.

In the two years since our last Major case updates episodes, some of the cases we’ve covered have reached a resolution, others have had significant developments or taken unexpected turns... and some are still far from over.

You don't need to remember the original episodes. Each update starts with a quick but immersive recap of the case, then picks up the story from where we left off.
