CSI Appin

Description

It is Britain's oldest known unsolved assasination: the killing of a british government official in 1752 and a tainted trail that may have sent an innocent man to the gallows.

Now, more than 260 years later, some of Scotland's finest forensic scientists are to re-examine the Appin murder - made famous by Robert Louis Stevenson's novel Kidnapped - to consider what might have been achieved if modern policing, forensic and judicial standards had been followed.
