A honeytrap killer charged with murder was caught on a police station camera lying to her young son about why she was unable to come home.
Surpreet Dhillon, 36, seduced and drugged her victim before calling two men to kill him in his own home.
Saul Murray, 33, died during the bungled robbery after he was targeted online by Dhillon.
She gave the dad-of-six the sedative GHB after having sex with him at his flat in Luton in February last year.
In the latest 24 Hours in Police Custody two-parter, called “The Honeytrap Murder”, Dhillon is seen weeping after she is charged with murder before speaking to her son on the phone.
She lies: “I’m still here, I’ve got to sort some stuff out with them. I’m going to be home in the next couple of weeks.”
Apparently asked by the boy if she was suspected of murder, she replies: “No, they got that wrong, I’m helping them with it. I’m just helping them, that’s not true okay?”
But Dhillon never did go home after she was jailed at Luton Crown Court for 10 years having been found guilty of manslaughter.
Det Insp Dale Mepstead tells the programme: “It makes me feel quite sad because I’m a mum myself. Getting involved in all that stuff means she’s now likely to go to prison and what impact will that have on her children?
“Saul’s got lots of children as well and what’s happened to him is going to have a big impact on their lives. I just think it’s quite sad really.”
Dhillon and Temidayo Awe, 21, went to Saul’s home after he posted pictures of his two “Rolex” watches on Instagram. The pair drugged him but failed to knock him out.
The film includes CCTV of knifeman Ikem Affia, 31, and Cleon Brown, 29, arriving at the flat to rob and ultimately kill their victim.
Shocking images then show a naked Murray following his killers to his front door before collapsing in a pool of blood.
His body was discovered on 27 February last year, but he had bled to death from a wound to a major artery in his leg.
Police later identified Affia by his designer Moncler puffer coat he was wearing.
He was caught on CCTV wearing the jacket in KFC two days prior to the attack.
Affia is shown on film carrying a large knife as he left the murder scene.
Police also used GPS readings from the Mercedes hired by the gang to place the car at the scene of the crime.
Brown is shown on CCTV using a vacuum cleaner at a petrol station to clean the car after the attack had taken place.
A jury found Affia, of Hackney, London, guilty of murder following a trial.
Dhillon, of Stratford, Brown, 29, of Hackney, both east London, and Awe, of Gillingham, Kent, were convicted of manslaughter.
Affia was jailed for life to serve a minimum of 25 years and was also sentenced to 14 years for conspiracy to commit robbery to run concurrently.
Brown was sentenced to 11 years, Dhillon for 10 years and Awe was imprisoned for seven years.
The Rolex watches Mr Murray had photographed online were in fact fake and that there were no expensive items in his flat.
