Description

On September 19, 1992, two bodies were discovered in the Belanglo State Forest in New South Wales, Australia. They were the remains of two young backpackers, Joanna Walters and Caroline Clarke from Britain, who had gone missing just a few months prior. After the discovery of Joanne and Caroline, more and more bodies would be found, until police had identified a total of 7 victims who had all been brutally butchered, their remains disposed of under piles of sticks and leaves.

Police launched a massive investigation into finding the person behind these horrific crimes, and their efforts would lead them to one Ivan Milat, a career criminal with a propensity for violence and a disturbing obsession with guns and knives.
