Episode 03: Victoria Greenwood Update

A man who killed a woman and attempted to cover his tracks by burning her body has been found guilty of murder.

Robert Brown, 38, of Hitchin Road, Luton killed Victoria Greenwood, 41, whose body was discovered in a car park in Hertfordshire last year.

Luton Crown Court heard he had arranged to meet Ms Greenwood, who was a sex worker, at his flat in the early hours of Friday, 10 November.

She was seen on CCTV footage on the ground outside trying to escape, but being pulled back inside the property.
