Hello lovely listeners! Welcome back to another episode on Coffee and Crime!
After proposing the question to you all last week regarding doing a mini-series of the 1960's Australian crime wave, I am so grateful for the interactions both from direct messages as well as those who voted on the poll which was put up on the instagram page (@coffeencrimepodcast). Any interaction really helps the podcast so thanking yoooou so much!!
So this week, ooooff another unsolved case, the sad story of two young friends whose lives were brutally cut short after a trip to the beach, we look into the timeline, the murder, the investigation and suspects but all lead to one dead end after another. Such an intriguing case, so many unanswered questions, confusing decisions made that unfortunately we won't know why they were made. Join me this week looking into this tragic case and as always, message me with your thoughts and theories!!
