Halloween Hammer Murder of Joanna Simpson 🕵️‍♀️

In this disturbing true crime documentary, we cover the chilling case of Joanna Simpson. A 46-year-old mother of two who was beaten to death with a claw hammer by her estranged husband, British Airways pilot Robert Brown, as their young children listened from a nearby playroom.

What drives a man to pre-dig a grave and bring a weapon to murder the mother of his children one week before their divorce is finalized? This is one of the darkest true crime stories we've ever covered.

On Halloween 2010, as children dressed in costumes knocked on doors across Ascot, Berkshire, a different kind of horror was unfolding inside a home on Millionaires' Row. 46-year-old Joanna Simpson was murdered by the man she had once loved, bludgeoned to death with a claw hammer whilst her two young children played just two doors away. Her body would be found five days later, buried in a pre-dug grave in Windsor Great Park. The man responsible was a British Airways captain, a pilot trusted with hundreds of lives. But despite overwhelming evidence of premeditation, Robert Brown would never be convicted of murder. This is the story of Joanna Simpson, a case that would inspire a Queen, change British law, and expose the shocking way our justice system treats domestic homicides.
