This week John and Sarah delve into high profile recent crime cases in the UK and Ireland - asking whether a culture of fear in the public sector results in outcomes like the Henry Nowak case or the relative silence in Ireland around Alex Coughlan. Also: Sinn Fein's poll slump, Bonnie Blue's sex stunt, RTE's continued troubles, and Enoch Burke's prison of conscience.
