What if that person rejects you – because of your own flawed personality? Do you accept it and move on, fixing yourself so it doesn’t happen again? Or do you blame another for it?
We head back fairly recently, to 2020, and to the county of Worcestershire this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, to hear a horrific tale of a flawed individual who really did have such a person under the skin – and the actions that resulted because of it.
The episode contains details and descriptions of events, involving injury detail, that some listeners may find disturbing, and or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
