Episode 335 - SHANNON MATTHEWS: Under the bed

On 19 February 2008, 9-year-old Shannon Matthews left school, waved goodbye to her best friend, and then vanished on the half-mile walk home.

West Yorkshire police, and a determined group of locals from Shannon’s estate, spent weeks doing all they could to find the missing little girl.

But when the truth behind Shannon’s disappearance was eventually uncovered, it was more shocking than anybody could have imagined.
