But basically this crime, in 2024, 65-year-old former gamekeeper or groundsman, sorry, Brian Lowe set out for a walk along – with his dog, Millie, in a place called Aberfeldy in Highland, Perthshire.
AnneHOST
And he was later found dead on Leafy Lane with Millie the dog still sitting by him.
AnneHOST
In an area where this kind of crime, or these things don't happen.
AnneHOST
So immediately the assumption was there'd been some sort of, he'd had some sort of medical issue, he'd fallen down and there was a little bit of blood they could see on his forehead and that he'd hit his head and that he'd died.
AnneHOST
Because that's exactly what you would imagine that would happen in a town like Aberfeldy.
AnneHOST
Unfortunately, this assumption led to lots of problems because actually, He hadn't had a medical incident and fallen down.
AnneHOST
He'd been murdered.
