The Mystery of Gus Lamont - Declaring a “Major Crime”

South Australia Police have declared the disappearance of four-year-old Gus Lamont a major crime, in a monumental moment of the case. What began as a desperate search for a little boy who vanished while playing at his grandparents’ remote outback sheep station has now become a criminal investigation, with one family member identified as a suspect. In this episode, Wayne speaks with reporter Karleigh Smith, who has been on the ground in South Australia, about the unprecedented scale of the search, the hiring of high-profile defence lawyers, and the mounting questions surrounding the events of that day. With no trace of Gus found despite one of the largest searches in state history, we unpack all the new information in this case.

The ‘Thanos’ Drug Empire

In this episode, Wayne looks at the remarkable case of Daniel Alejandro Latriglia Salcedo, a Colombian student prosecutors say ran a multi-drug trafficking operation under the name 'Thanos'. Using QR-coded business cards and Telegram menus, Salcedo openly marketed cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy, LSD and more, until police uncovered drugs, cash and digital evidence of dealing. Yet despite pleading guilty to serious drug trafficking offences, Salcedo walked free from court. Joining Wayne is criminal psychologist Tim Watson-Munro, whose expertise has featured in some of Australia’s biggest criminal trials. Together, they break down how technology has changed the landscape of drug dealing- and why today’s dealers often believe they’re untouchable, right up until the moment they’re caught.

The Story of Nikkita Azzopardi

On October 2024, 35-year-old Nikkita Azzopardi failed to attend a family gathering in Melbourne, an absence so out of character it immediately raised alarm. Within hours, her brothers Darren and Sean would force their way into her home and make a discovery that would change their lives forever. Nikkita had been brutally killed by her partner, Joel Micallef. Charged with murder, Micallef was later found not guilty due to mental impairment, after forensic psychiatrists told the Supreme Court of Victoria he was suffering acute psychosis at the time of the killing. In this episode, Nikkita’s brothers speak publicly about the moments leading up to her death, the harrowing scene they encountered, and the legal process that followed. They share their frustration with a system they believe failed their sister, and explain why they are now calling for urgent reform of Victoria’s mental impairment laws.

Welcome to On The Case. From the team that brought you the chart-topping, award-winning series The Trial, On The Case is the home for the Daily Mail’s stellar crime reporting beyond the courtroom… now in audio for the very first time. Each series, a Daily Mail journalist takes us to the heart of a story they’ve been covering, featuring new details, exclusive interviews and behind the scenes insights from the biggest crime stories making headlines around the world. Early in the morning of November 13, 2022, four University of Idaho students were found brutally stabbed to death in their off-campus rental home in Moscow, Idaho. The victims were Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. Maddie and Kaylee, both asleep in Maddie’s bed, were killed first. It was just after 4am but Xana was still up having ordered a food delivery; he stabbed her next before moving onto kill Ethan where he slept. There were no signs of forced entry - the lock of the door he slipped through was broken - and two other roommates inside the house survived. Weeks later, after an investigation shrouded in secrecy, authorities arrested the then 28-year-old Washington State University criminology Ph.D. student Bryan Kohberger at his family home in Pennsylvania. On July 2nd, Kohberger pled guilty to the murders, as part of a plea deal to avoid the death penalty. His sentencing has been set for Wednesday July 23rd, and he will spend the rest of his life in prison. In On The Case, Laura Collins, an editor and investigative reporter at the Daily Mail in New York, and who has covered the story since the beginning, goes behind the headlines on the story that has gripped and horrified audiences on both sides of the Atlantic since it first broke in November 2022.

David Ames was a twice-bankrupt double-glazing salesman from Basildon with dreams of building a Caribbean property empire. His company, Harlequin, promised ordinary investors luxury resort properties at bargain prices – their slice of paradise and financial security. Over nearly a decade, more than 8,000 people handed over £400 million. Many bet their entire pension pots on Ames' vision. But behind Ames’ slick marketing pitch lay financial chaos and systematic deception. While investors waited for dream properties, their money funded pirate ships, imported sand that washed away with the tide, and eye-watering sales commissions. From a local newspaper investigation that exposed the scheme to the Serious Fraud Office's decade-long pursuit of justice, this is the story of how thousands lost everything betting on one man’s vision. Featuring exclusive interviews with victims, investigators, and industry insiders, The Lost Caribbean Millions reveals the human cost of one of Britain's biggest investment frauds. Hosted on Acast.
