Airdate: 2025-Jul-13

Episode summary:

The inside story of the investigation into the disappearance of a 15-year-old boy. A mum calls Bedfordshire 999 reporting that her 15-year-old son has gone missing, again. DC Lee Primonato from the dedicated Guns & Gangs unit immediately suspects that yet another child has been drawn into serious drug dealing and that the boy will, eventually, be found in a drug den. Recruiting children to hold a phone where drugs are ordered by customers has become an essential part of gangs' business model; because it makes it harder for the police. Cameras follow detectives as they make a breakthrough. Every twist and turn of the investigation is on camera as a raid is planned on a property where the police hope to find the controller of the drug line but the detectives are in for an unpleasant surprise.
