Episode 234 - The Hillsborough Disaster

The deadliest event in UK sporting history took place on the 15th of April, 1989. In the starting minutes of the F.A. Cup semi-finals between Liverpool F.C. and Nottingham Forest, a disaster unfolded which to date has claimed the lives of 97 people. and left 766 others injured on the day.

These innocent people were the victims of the complacency, ineptitude, and sheer incompetence of those whose very jobs were to ensure their safety.

Institutional coverups, police corruption, evidence tampering, and lies in the media made it take almost 30 years for the truth to come to light.
