Groomed – Control, coercion and the cold-hearted killing of showjumper Katie Simpson is a new, nine-part investigative podcast series from Crime World.
Groomed unveils the brutal truth behind the death of 21-year-old showjumper Katie Simpson, initially staged as a suicide but later revealed to be rape and murder at the hands of Jonathan Creswell, a 36-year-old with a history of controlling and abusing women. This narrative plunges into the dark world of a charismatic yet deeply depraved horseman who cultivated a cult-like control over multiple women, including Katie, her sister Christina, Jill Robinson, Hayley Robb, and Rose De Montmorency Wright. Despite a history of violence, chillingly previewed by the abuse of a former partner, Olympic showjumper Abigail Lyle, Creswell remained untouchable within the privileged equestrian community. It took the relentless efforts of a determined journalist and others to expose the truth, even as Creswell’s own dramatic suicide during his murder trial left his accomplices to face justice alone. Nicola Tallant and the Crime World team talk to journalists and investigators, as well as Katie's friends and Creswell's victims, to investigate just how such a violent individual was allowed to hurt so many people, and why he almost got away with murder.

It’s been over 35 years since the night Sarah MacDiarmid vanished from the Kananook railway station on Wednesday, 11 July 1990. Blood evidence at the scene suggested Sarah had been attacked and may not have survived. But her attacker took her, and Sarah’s body has never been recovered.
After an extensive search and a police investigation which continues to this day, Sarah’s family hope this podcast will bring a renewed focus onto her case, and that someone listening will hold a piece of the puzzle that will help return Sarah to them.
