An execution style murder still remains one of Leeds’ most confounding unsolved mysteries, nine years on.
A woman woke up to discover her boyfriend, lying next to her in bed, had been shot in the head. There were no signs of forced entry in their home in Moorland Avenue, Hyde Park, on July 29, 2004.
That man was Richard Clarke , 32, who was shot in the head with a 12-bore shotgun. His body was discovered by his 14-year-old son who shook Richard’s girlfriend, who later said she’d taken a sleeping tablet and hadn’t heard a thing.
