Ethical true crime, brilliant

While this series depicts disturbing events, the narrative is held carefully by Debi Marshall and it is superb retelling with a compassionate tone.

Riveting Podcast

Thanks Debi for loading this fantastic and insightful podcast. I remember these crimes so well as I was 15 the same age as Richard Kelvin when he was abducted in 1983. Congratulations on uplifting the suppression order on some of the perpetrators of these heinous crimes. I really hope you ‘break this case more wide open’ and are finally able to reveal the rest of the perpetrators. Keep up the great work!
