  • Justice for Hannah McGuire
    Dec 2 2025

    In this heartbreaking episode, we honour the life of Hannah McGuire, a 23-year-old teachers aide from Ballarat whose future was stolen in an act of fatal domestic violence.

    Hannah's body was found in her burnt-out vehicle in bushland, as her ex-partner, Lachlan Young, had murdered her and tried to stage her death as a suicide.

    What he does next will shock you.

    We walk through the events leading up to this day, and what sentence was handed down.

    Hannah deserved safety and protection; she deserved her life.

    This is a community crisis.

  • The Wrongful Conviction of Andrew Mallard
    Nov 26 2025

    One of Australia's most shopcking miscarriages of justice: the wrongful conviction of Andrew Mallard.

    In 1995, Andrew was sentenced to life for the murder of Perth jeweler Pamela Lawrence, a crime he didn't commit.

    For 12 long years, Andrew fought to prove his innocence from within prison.

    We explore the flawed investigation, the overlooked evidence, and the systemic failures that allowed this innocent man to be imprisoned.

    Andrew Mallard's story is a lesson in resilience, truth-seeking and the urgent need for reform in Australia.

  • SEARCHING FOR ROB SNYDER
    Nov 19 2025

    Rob Snyder left his home address in Melville on Friday the 25th of October heading for the family's second residence in Heron, Perth.

    Rob never made it to Heron, but his vehicle was captured on Automatic Number Plate Recognition driving his white Subaru Forester eastbound on Thomas Road Oakford, after the Nicholson Road intersection.

    We break down the details of the timeline, what we know so far, and what areas we have covered in day 6 of our active search for Rob Snyder.

    The family's best chance of finding their beloved Rob lies with community reach.

    If you or anyone you know reside in the Oakford, Cardup, Mundijong, Jarrahdale, Serpentine area please share the episode as far and wide as possible, so we can broaden our search.

    Our thoughts and strength are with the Snyder family during this painful period.

  • Justice for Lisa Mott
    Nov 11 2025

    In 1980, 12-year-old Lisa Mott vanished from Collie, Western Australia, and was never seen again.

    Despite decades of rumours, dead ends, and alleged sightings of a yellow panel van, Lisa has never been found, and no one has ever been convicted.

    In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, I re-examine the disappearance through criminological theory and forensic science, exploring how investigative biases and regional isolation may have shaped one of WA's most haunting cold cases.

  • Justice for Betty Shanks
    Oct 22 2025

    In September of 1952, the quiet Brisbane suburb of Grange was changed forever by the brutal murder of 22-year-old Betty Shanks.

    A crime that remains one of Australia's oldest unsolved mysteries, Betty was walking home from a night class when she was savagely attacked just metres from the front gate to her home.

    In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we jump deep into the evidence, the forensics, and the speculation that follows.

    Was Betty's killer a soldier returning from war?

    A police officer abusing his power?

    Or a stranger driven by opportunity and rage?

    Through forensic reasoning, we revisit crime scene clues and talk about new interpretations of what happened to Betty Shanks.

    Join us on this episode of Queensland's oldest, coldest case.

  • Where is Tremaine Desmond Reid?
    Oct 14 2025

    In June 2023, 37-year-old Tremaine Desmond Reid disappeared from the Lockyer area in WA — a quiet, rural community surrounded by farmland and winding country roads. He left behind family who describe him as kind, creative, and full of life — and a trail of unanswered questions.


    In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we look beyond the headlines and into the heart of a family’s search for answers. What really happened to Tremaine that night? Why has so little information been released publicly? And what clues might still lie hidden in the Lockyer landscape?


    Join me as we trace the timeline of Tremaine’s final known movements, speak with those closest to him, and examine how missing person investigations unfold when the truth feels just out of reach.


    If you have information about Tremaine’s disappearance, please contact Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000 or visit crimestoppers.com.au.
