I absolutely believe there are occasions when police have coerced a false confession out of an innocent person. But this is not one of them.

this documentary was put together beautifully. emilia is one conniving psychopath for sure.

I watch a lot of documentaries, and this is one of the best I've seen. So well put together. Its astounding the lengths she goes trying to manipulate and loophole her way out admitting her involvement.

Emilia's lawyer failed to mention that the most damning confession was to Josh's sister, NOT coerced, or gotten through trickery. Evil little troll envied the prettier Heather.

“Did you kill Heather?” “Ugh everybody asks me that!” Well yeah you are on death row for her murder? I think people are gonna ask if you did it

I’m not going to lie, this lady had me fooled for 3 episodes. Boy was I wrong. I will not be quitting my day job.

This was so sad to see. The fact that she's caught and she can't just admit and apologise is really sad also scary in a way.

Emilia didn't want her to suffer, wow what a great person she is

wow. this doc was excellent! bbc this was way better than anything we see in the states.

She just never stops the blame game. She takes no responsibility for her part in the murder.

omg those little smiles in between words at the end says it all.. shes guilty and she has no remorse whatsoever

She has an answer for EVERYTHING! In her mind, she is never the 'bad guy' She had the audacity to say Heather was her friend and she misses her! SOME nerve 🤨

She's pregnant and she's no problem killing a human being, a mother. I hope that baby inside her would grow up with a heart nothing like her parents. 🙏🙏

The way those lies just slide out of her mouth, no hesitation. She's very cold and callous. I'm so glad they managed to get that confession out of her without granting her immunity . On a side note the BBC need to make more of these types of documentaries, loved it!

You see in the last min of the interview...couldn't hold back the smile...major duping delight....BUSTED!!

By far the best crime doc I've seen in a long time!😄 Thanx!

The way she blankly says “she was my friend...” is so scary.

I love the way this doc was put together was brilliant, in the beginning, I thought she was innocent but now... she's definitely evil.

Great police work, great documentary, well done!

‘She was my friend.’ Really? Speechless.

I can't believe she did all that while she was pregnant 😮😯

i love how she laughed when she was asked if she killed Heather... that smile/laugh was the only real true and genuine display of emotion this whole.. interview, or whatever..... and then to say "i miss her, wish she was here" and say she knew her struggle..... pure evil.... unbelievable... just. ..... wow

She lies 100% of the time

Watch the eye movements, facial expressions. She's lying.

It's sad knowing Emilia has no sense of self-accountability. This all could've been avoided. R.I.P Heather ❤

There are a lot of impressive moments from this detective, but to me the most impressive is at 6:51. Amelia actually just nodded her head that she'd been involved, & the white detective plows ahead with his line of questioning, but the Black detective is so keyed into Amelia, the interrogation, & his goal of getting a confession, that he realizes she's just silently confessed. He actually interrupts his partner & brings Amelia right back to what she's just confessed to, pressuring her to say it out loud so that it's unequivocally on the record & she will have taken a step past the point of no return. And it works. She confesses. In a few short moments she's demonstrating how they killed Heather. It's probably not fair to say this detective singlehandedly broke this case--but he singlehandedly broke this case. He really used the interrogation process effectively. So word to the wise: do not imagine you can go head to head with most detectives. They're trained to get information out of you. LAWYER UP, whether you're innocent or guilty. A cop's job, unfortunately, is to build a case that can be prosecuted. That's not the same as catching the person who committed the crime.

This documentary was fantastic I don’t know how else to say it, an yes I do believe detectives an courts try to manipulate ppl into false confessions but this isn’t one of them, I lost track in how many times she changed her story and when josh confessed you can tell that was raw and genuine emotion. She was just a liar from the beginning “oh if you need me to testify I will” like c’mon now.

Ugh, they re-sentenced her to life in prison. Well, I hope you have a longgg miserable time there girl. You deserve it 👋🏼👋🏼

The guy got life cuz he plead guilty she got death cuz she plead not guilty

Generally I don’t like police but the black detective is bae 🥰🥰🥰 and he did a fuckin awesome job on this case.

Emilia take finally the responsibility for what you did!!! No more lies, hopefully god will judge you one day also!!! Beautiful Heather Rest In Peace.

Masterly done BBC Three! \o/ The best documentary about this case i've ever seen! The interviews in the interrogation rooms are very powerful. Please, we want some more!

Such a sad story, but also so fascinating to see a real psychopath. The flow, how she makes up the lies as she talks, the way she manipulates is both scary and fascinating at the same time... Great documentary, BBC III. RIP Heather.

cant believe she’s smiling in the last few seconds whilst speaking. definitely a sociopath

The detective has me stuck. He is such a good listener, intuitive and sooooo gorgeous. These are my confessions (in my usher voice). I’ve watched this series about 3xs being thirsty. Lawd help me. Lolz

Well, it took 8 videos but I guess I'm finally convinced she did it. Damn. Smh.

I think I’m still watching because of that handsome black detective 😂😩

A perfect marriage of great police work and a great documentary. BBC did a great job with this, so much so I'd rather see their version than those done in the states. The details covered, from interrogations to uncovering the corpse.

Great program well done bbc 3

Ggguuuurrrlll if u dont stop we saw u on tape saying u tried to snap her neck

Omg she shifts ever so slightly when they say the conversation was recorded and she's stone still after like she's using every fiber of her being to stay straight. Her body language is crazy, she's literally trying so hard.

Once I heard the recorded confession played I was that’s it -:HERE IS THE KILLER !! Lord have Mercy upon this young lady’ s soul . Lust deceived her . Big up to the Detectives . Justice served for Heather’ s children

Characters like her (manipulative and conniving) are the ones to which is best to stay away from in the real world...

I can see the evil in her eyes. Wow, it gave me chills how everything she said was so fake

With friends like that, who needs an enemy! 💖 👼 R.I.P Heather Strong 💖

I would like to commend BBC 3 for their excellent documentaries. Very well put together, professional, and non judgemental. Thank you BBC 3!

The way she talks about heather like she’s talking as a friend at her funeral is really creepy. She so obviously guilty, her eyes hold most of the guilt.

I like how at first, the documentary almost depicts Emilia and her lawyer as these crusaders against a male dominated society and how it is so horrible to be a wrongly accused single mother. Then, as the documentary progresses, they show similar footage of Emilia and her lawyer and you begin to feel sick to your stomach realizing the high level of manipulation, deceit and cunning that Emilia has employed. That feeling that you could have been tricked by her, just how she was able to trick her dim witted lawyer. That there are real single mothers out there that don't complain or worry like Emilia was playing up. If it weren't for Josh's sister, she might have gotten away with it. Emilia is a master sociopath and possibly psychopath. But above that, excellent job editing and directing to reveal Emilia as the monster she so desparately attempts to hide.

The detective is lowkey daddy.

Good police work.

she have made a great actress.

Her urge to get it off her chest caught her up. How she gonna tell Josh's sister to tell Josh to ''STOP TALKING TO THEM'' then Emlia herself tells Josh's sister EVERYTHING. She's definitely a nut case. She wasn't scared ! Wow

liar. "She was my friend and I miss her!" To whom she is trying to fool?

wether or not she is guilty she should spend an eternity in prison, because 1000 years in jail is worse than the release of death

“I think it’s time for me to open the pandora’s box” hell yeah

Is she really trying to say they manipulated her to say she did it 😑😑 WOW insane.....

There may be peace in Josh’s life someday for being honest, but Emilia has to remain in her crazy delusional world of Narcissism

If you wish she was here you shouldn't have killed her

OMG DONALD BUIE IS HANDSOME GOOD GOD... He's the reason i watch this show. Bless him lord

What I learned . I can say anything to a cop as long as I say " hypothetically" and it only counts when I say " on the record" now I know. And knowing is half the battle.

btw loved this documentary

Rest in peace heather watch over your children from heaven , I hope the family can survive as best they can 😞

Rest in peace Heather ❤🥀🥀

Them teeth girl

The black detective is so hot 😍😱🤤

Prison has excellent dental care. Maybe you can take care of those trrth... opps no...its too late.

that last part where she's saying she didn't kill heather was such bad lying.. you can tell it's all bullshit

She took someone's life being 8 months pregnant and then she gave life. Brutal and tragic!!

The loooong blinking is a tell tail way to know when a person is lying. Emilia does it a lot. And the black detective, is extremely good looking!

Lol i would be like “ill tell you everything you need to know detective.... as long as i can sit on yo lap” 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️

Why does the lawyer’s perm make her look like someone who reads tarot cards, palms and crystal balls for a living? 😂

Yeah she lying. please BBC THREE put more...great work!

Those teeth...

This documentary was by far , one of the best I've seen. The Lead Detective, Burrow's, I believe, showed a perfect example of how he never left one stone unturned. Every detail he covered or asked. Josh finally confessing was "Brilliant" on the Detective's part. He is definitely the Detective, you want on your side in a criminal investigation. Damn good job.

What a great , respectable , caring detective .Outstanding sir,,just a great man.

The way she answer the question if she kill Heather, as if she answer 'do you like that guy'? Kind of question. She blush and smile

R.I.P Heather 😢

I don't know why they interrupted the conversation with Josh's sister in the car. They might have heard enough but I had not.

I cant believe how much she can lie

She definitely did it... Idc what her lawyer says, she told on her herself dummy!! She just need to repent and take the needle #JusSayin

Guilty as charged

I'm gonna show this to my kids to show them what happens to your teeth when you keep lying through them.

I laughed my ass off when he asked her if that chair was comfortable she said yes then he said which one was more comfortable she said this one I guess than he pointed at the uncomfortable chair and said why don't you come in sit in this one lol😆😜😂

How can the lawyer say that shes innocent???

I'd like to listen to the entire tape of the convo between Michelle and Emilia

It's confusing to me how come she keeps saying Heather was her best friend etc etc...but she was also sleeping with Heathers husband when ever Heather and him got in a fight....I wish in the interview they would of asked her to explain her reasoning there. Also why did she not get a paternity test.....the children that suffered in the end.

I started this series thinking Amelia was set up and disliking that detective but wow did the tables turn 😢

With friends this girl ,you don`t need enemies

Well, she fooled me in parts 1 and 2. It’s not the first time a sociopath fooled me 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣

Love theses detective man! They'll never give up until they'll finally get the truth👏👏👏 respect dat, they caught her lying ass😂😂👍

omg she defiantly deserves everything she got dealt..She's straight evil and all her narcissistic ways!!

She thought she was so smart , NOT! What's crazy is she's told this lie so much that she actually believes it's the truth.

I am disappointed that Emilia is a mother, who wants a mother like her?

Wow she had fooled, I watched something recent on her. Then I checked this out and watched from start to finish. She had me convinced with the lies, I really thought she was just dumb and complicit, But in actual fact she was involved and not a dumb complicit lover who was in way over head. she's horrible evil with no emotion, no tears nothing. and she still needs to brush them teeth

Excellent documentary, this is the best I’ve ever seen, & I’ve seen many. Thank you, I look forward to seeing what’s next.

Fantastic Detective work! You should have your own channel. Thank you for you dedication.

Emilia: I wish she were here, she's the only one who understands what its like tryin to stay alive. Yeah, she tried to stay alive, you took that.

Lied through her teeth the whole time. The detectives did not coerce a confession out of her. She called Josh’s sister, and she didn’t know the police were listening when she confessed.

i think her attorney needs to retire, she would probably believe the sky is purple lol

She put herself on death row. She kept talking to the police WITHOUT a lawyer!!! Even after she was caught lying a million times she STILL kept taking! I'm glad I watched this because the interviews with her make it seem like the police were out to get her and she falsely confessed under pressure. NO MA'AM!
