Australian True Crime27 Feb 2022

My Child is a Notorious Killer.

Two extended families continue to pay a heavy price for turning a blind eye to the disfunction in one household. A mother joins us to talk about the lead up to her child becoming a killer, and the aftermath so many people must live with for the rest of their lives.

If you are in immediate danger in Australia, call 000.

There is help if you are experiencing family violence or coercive control. You can call 1800 RESPECT 24/7 on 1800 737 732, or visit their website here.

You can also call Lifeline 24/7 on 13 11 14.

Next Week: Legendary retired homicide detective Rowland Legg joins us to talk about some of Australia's most notorious killers, men he captured but not always saw convicted. Rowland will be live on stage with us in Melbourne on April 8 and thanks to the easing of restrictions we've been able to release extra tickets to that event. You can book them here.
