Scottish Murders is a twice award shortlisted, victim focused podcast hosted by Dawn, that focuses on the stories of murders victims from or living in Scotland. Dawn, being Scottish herself, started the podcast in 2021 to showcase the lesser-known murders that have happened in Scotland, as while it is well known as ‘Bonnie Scotland’, it does have a very dark side too. Dawn also speaks to victims family members when at all possible, which gives them a chance to tell their own loved ones story, and covers both solved and unsolved cases.
