About this listen

 “In Camberley, a young woman left a nightclub and disappeared into the dark. By morning, her body had been found near a cemetery path — and the truth, when it finally emerged, seemed almost impossible to believe.” In 1992, 18-year-old Katie Rackliff was found murdered near Farnborough. The attack was so violent, so extreme, that police believed they were hunting a man. But years later, the investigation led somewhere no one had expected. To a schoolgirl. Sharon Carr was just twelve years old when Katie was killed. What followed became one of the most disturbing stories in modern British crime — not only because of the brutality of the murder, but because of what it forced people to confront about childhood, violence, intent, and capability. This week, the Archive examines the killing of Katie Rackliff — and the long shadow cast by the girl who would become known as The Devil’s Daughter. Some cases are frightening for their cruelty. Others for their impossibility. This one was both.
