161. Mummy’s Turning Black: Murder at Summerfield Station Jul 06, 2020

Show notes

In 1978 in the small town of Jerilderie in country New South Wales, Mick Lewis and his wife Sue were found dead, with their two small children left to starve in their isolated homestead. Was this another tragic case of domestic violence taken to it's deadly conclusion? Or was there an even more sinister force at play here? After weeks of painstaking and meticulous detective work, a bevvy of red herrings, some funky 1970's forensic work and a massive search for a rare rifle, the stranger, and balder than fiction truth eventually revealed itself.

TCNT: Rebecca tells us about the PBS TV Series “The Dictator's Playbook”

Aussie As: A truck driver from Queensland thwarts an attempted robbery and gives the offender some fatherly life advice.

160. Bundy's Buddy: Serial killer Cesar Barone - Part Two Jun 22, 2020

Show notes

Cesar Barone was an American serial killer and sexual sadist who was prison pals with his murder idol Ted Bundy. Apparently Ted gave him some red-hot some tips that helped him become a serial killer. Cesar didn't conform to the rules of criminal profiling, murdering both elderly and young women. He used different methods, sometimes strangling or suffocating his victims and sometimes shooting them at point blank range. He also killed alone and with a partner.

159. Bundy’s Buddy: Serial killer Cesar Barone - Part One Jun 15, 2020

Show notes

Cesar Barone was an American serial killer and sexual sadist whose preferred victims were elderly women. Not one to limit himself, he'd also rape and murder younger women, when the mood struck him. Like most serial killers, he led a double life and those close to him had no idea what he was getting up to. He also had the dubious honour of being prison pals with Ted Bundy.

TCNT: Leah Heinrich tells us about the Netflix Doco: Jeffery Epstein - Filthy Rich.

Aussie As: A Northern Territory man calls the police to report that youths have stolen some of his marijuana crop.

158. Terrible Temptress Michelle Burgess Jun 08, 2020

Show notes

Michelle Burgess had a history of cheating on her husband, but a sordid affair she started in the year 2000 took it to another level. Her husband’s boss Kevin Matthews fell hard for the saucy strumpet and they soon began to plan the murders of their spouses.

Looking for a contract killer at her children’s primary school seemed like the easy part, but could they get away with murder when news of their affair had gotten so public? And was their junkie amatuer hitman Dave Key up for the job?

TCNT: Mike tells us about the documentary "The Cult of the Family".

Aussie As: An erotic role play does not go to plan when men with machetes invade the wrong house.

Show notes

When the president of the Queensland Cat Protection Society, Kathleen Marshall, was murdered in a frenzied stabbing attack in 1998, everyone thought her arch rival and nemesis Virginia Houston was responsible.

But this proved to be a more complicated investigation, involving the two warring factions of the Cat Protection Society, who would stop at nothing to seize power. Forensic Science would eventually reveal the stranger than fiction truth of Australia’s answer to Tiger King.

TCNT: Tracey Stewart reviews the book "Working Stiff" by Tanya Eby.

156. The Children of Thunder Cult Murders – Part Two May 25, 2020

Show notes

If you thought Part One was outrageous, you ain't seen nothing yet! The Children of Thunder were a cult of former Mormons who committed five horrendous murders in the year 2000. Their leader, Taylor Helzer, had convinced his followers that he had the gift of revelation and truly spoke the word of God.

His plan for an organisation called “Transform America” was supposed to bring harmony to the world and ring in Christ's millennial reign of peace. So obviously murder, kidnapping, sex trafficking, drugs and extortion would be involved!

TCNT: Loraine Ledwell tells us about a virtual tour called The Big Cat Murder Mystery. you can find it here https://seeyour.city

Aussie As: A Queensland woman has a close encounter of the “Nope” kind with a toilet-python.

Show notes

The Children of Thunder were a cult of former Mormons who committed five murders in the year 2000. They believed these brutal killings would bring harmony to the world and begin Christ's millennial reign of peace.

Their leader, Taylor Helzer, convinced his followers he had the gift of revelation and truly spoke the word of God. And according to him, God was super into drugs, sex trafficking, kidnapping, extortion, murder and dismemberment.

153. The Millionaire Bondage Murder May 11, 2020

Show notes

When Multi Millionaire Peter Shellard met Shirley Withers it was love at first sight, then it was sexy bondage, then embezzment and bank fraud, then it was murder most foul bound with dog leads, ropes and an electrical cord with the added sparkle of an anal suppostory.

The bizzarre murder of wealthly ecentric Peter Shellard is a sideshow of carnivaleque characters, a plethora of possible enemies, phone taps and a hitman, eventually revealing a sad trail of greed, hubris and vengeance.

TCNT: Drake tells us about the FX television series "Mr Inbetween"

152. The Book of Sam May 04, 2020

Show notes

In 1996 in Melbourne, a 13 year old boy became one of the youngest people in Australia to be found guilty of murder.

We can't use his real name, as the courts have suppressed his details and sealed his records, so we're going to call him Sam West. From an early age, Sam's life seemed to be destined to be one of poverty, criminality and misery. But could Sam make his own fate and escape where he had come from to a better future?

In a series of bad associations and even worse decisions, teenage Sam's aspirations would come undone after attempting to rob taxi driver Peter Coe.

TCNT: FlibberTiGibbetey tells us about the podcast Hollywood Crime Scene with Rachel Fisher and Desi Jedeikin.

Aussie As: Methed-up Jimbo goes on a day long car-jacking rampage in the ACT before stealing a cops gun and terrorising a hospital.
