In this episode, we dive into one of Australia's most haunting outback mysteries — the disappearance of British backpacker Peter Falconio. In July 2001, Peter and his girlfriend, Joanne Lees, were traveling through the remote Northern Territory when a terrifying roadside encounter changed everything. Joanne survived to tell the tale — claiming they were ambushed by a stranger on the highway — but Peter was never seen again.
As investigators pieced together the bizarre circumstances, suspicion, media frenzy, and international attention followed. It would take years before someone was brought to justice — but even then, Peter’s body was never found.
