  • Samantha Knight - Never Forgotten
    Dec 11 2018

    In this episode, reporter Ross Coulthart remembers the chilling case of Samantha Knight, the angelic nine-year-old Bondi schoolgirl, who one day in 1986, vanished. Her disappearance led to one of the largest police investigations in New South Wales history but her body has still not been found. In 2001, the notorious paedophile Michael Guider was charged with Samantha's murder, and six months later pleaded guilty to manslaughter, claiming he hadn't meant to kill the little girl. He has never revealed where he put her body.

    What happened to Samantha remains her parents, indeed every parent’s, worst nightmare.

  • Gable Tostee - The Interview
    Dec 11 2018

    They both wanted uncomplicated, fast sex, and hooking up on the dating app Tinder was the perfect way to do it. But when Gable Tostee met Warriena Wright in 2014, their night of passion ended in death. That was horrific enough, but what drew further condemnation was Tostee’s apparent disregard for Warriena in the seconds, and minutes after her fatal fall. Tostee found himself charged with murder. What followed was one of the most divisive court cases in Australia’s recent history. In 2016 Tostee was acquitted of the murder, largely because of the audio of Wright’s final moments…which oddly, Tostee had recorded on his smart phone. After the court ruling, Gable Tostee broke a two-year silence and sat down with reporter Liam Bartlett for an extraordinary interview.

Great podcast

Very thorough investigations and captivating reporting. The lengths gone to get their stories is absolutely amazing and I think the interviews done by the reporters are very thought provoking.
