Podcast series The Kill List tells the gripping story of a four-year true crime investigation centred on the dark web, but with real world victims across the globe. In this event, podcast presenter Jamie Bartlett and host Carl Miller share the story of how Miller, a British journalist, secretly intercepted hundreds of paid murder orders on a scam hitman-for-hire website on the darknet.
They follow his journey from first making the disturbing discovery; his race against time to warn those in danger; and the increasingly urgent battle to persuade the global authorities to get involved. Miller’s collaboration with the police agencies around the globe has led to 34 arrests and 28 convictions to date across 11 countries.
Jamie Bartlett is the presenter of several hit BBC podcasts, including The Missing Cryptoqueen. Carl Miller is a tech journalist and founder of CASM, the digital research team at the think tank Demos UK.
