The searches that condemned a murdering mother

The searches that condemned a murderous mother: The double homicide of Alexis and Scarlett Porton A mother called 999 when her two daughters stopped breathing within three weeks. But her internet search history revealed queries about "how long it takes for a body to cool" and asphyxiation - made before each death. How did she almost make the murders seem like natural causes? In this episode, we explore the contradictions that shattered her defense: security cameras capture Scarlett alive at 6:55 PM and dead in the back seat at 9:59 PM; forensic searches on her phone document direct premeditation; and a second autopsy reveals bruises on her neck that the first autopsy never saw. Why was Lewis Porton selling his daughters' clothes for £20 while pretending to grieve?
