The Story of Bennylyn and Jellica Burke
Listen now
Description
It was 2021 and most of the world was still in the tight grip of the COVID-19 pandemic that started the year before. Countries had implemented strict lockdowns. Life as we knew it came to a grinding halt and we were being bombarded by daily updates of COVID deaths, as if it was just a part of our lives then. It was therefore all the more jarring when news out of the UK talked of a missing Filipina and her young daughter. The news stood out. It was not COVID-related but, as it turned out, it was just as grim. Listen now to know the full story of Bennylyn and Jellica Burke who went missing from their home in Bristol in late February 2021.
