In this episode we return to the quarry with Gerard Beattie, Marian’s brother. Gerard tells us he believes he does know the identity of the person responsible for his sister’s murder.
We hear for the first time about ‘The Rats Tail’ – a pathway that lead to where the body was found.
And has crucial evidence been lost forever?

In late March 1973, 18 year old Marian Beattie went to a charity dance at Hadden's Garage on the outskirts of Aughnacloy with her best friend and brother. During the night she was seen dancing with a young man. She left with him after 1am and within minutes Marian was murdered.
46 years later, nobody has been brought to justice.
This is a special Nolan Show podcast, following the events of that night, and the investigation that followed. In this episode you'll hear from Marian's younger brother Gerard Beattie, her friend Nuala Wilson who was there that night, and local Criminologist Robert Giles. We also have our first encounter with the PSNI in this episode.
Do you have information relating to Marian's murder? Contact the PSNI on their non-emergency 101 number. Or you can contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
This podcast series is presented by Stephen Nolan, with Vinny Hurrell.
