    The Katherine Knight Story | The Men Who Ran

    Before John Price, there were other men. David Kellett. David Saunders. John Chillingworth. Three relationships that unfolded across more than two decades—and three men who, at different times, tried to put distance between themselves and Katherine Knight. This companion episode steps away from the murder of John Price and looks at what came before: the marriage that fractured under violence, the partner who disappeared into hiding and the final relationship before Katherine moved on to Price. Their accounts were not always the same. Some allegations were disputed. But across the years, familiar patterns continued to return—jealousy, possession, threats, violence and the dangerous moment when someone tried to leave. Katherine Knight: The Men Who Ran is available now for Coffee & Crime AU subscribers. CONTENT WARNING: This episode discusses domestic violence, threats involving children and harm to an animal.

    The KATHERINE KNIGHT Story — THE NIGHT ABERDEEN WENT SILENT

    On 29 February 2000, John Price went home to his house in Aberdeen, New South Wales. He expected to wake up the next morning and go to work. He never did. What happened inside John's home would become one of the most notorious murder cases in Australian criminal history. Katherine Knight and John Price had been in a turbulent relationship. In the days before his death, John had become frightened enough to seek legal protection — and he warned his workmates that if he didn't arrive at work the following morning, they should assume Katherine had killed him. The following morning, police entered his home. What they discovered would shock the country. In this episode, we trace Katherine Knight's history, her relationships, the escalating violence, the final night of John's life, the investigation that followed and the courtroom proceedings that ultimately resulted in Knight receiving life imprisonment without parole. But beneath the notoriety is another story. John Price was a father, a friend, a worker and a man who was trying to protect himself and his children. This is his story, too. ⚠️ Content warning: This episode discusses domestic violence, murder, mental health and disturbing criminal evidence. Listener discretion is advised. ☕ Coffee and Crime AUAustralian true crime. Real cases. Real people. Their stories deserve to be remembered.

    The Kerrie Palmer Story | When Murder Became Manslaughter

    KERRIE PALMER — WHEN MURDER BECAME MANSLAUGHTER In this subscriber-exclusive deep dive, we go beyond the story of Kerrie Palmer and into the evidence that shaped one of Queensland’s most difficult criminal cases. Four men were ultimately convicted of manslaughter, but none were convicted of murder. So why? This episode follows the evidence piece by piece — the money dispute, the search for Kerrie, Coral Tree Court, the vehicles, telephone records, DNA, blood evidence, the movements between locations, the statements given by the accused, and the events surrounding the discovery of Kerrie’s body. We also look closely at the difference between evidence and inference, the different cases against each accused, and the difficult question at the heart of the trial: Did the evidence prove murder beyond reasonable doubt — or did it only establish manslaughter? This isn't a retelling. It's an examination of what the evidence actually showed, what it couldn't establish, and why the jury ultimately drew the line where it did. And at the end, one question remains: Should Kerrie Palmer's death have resulted in murder convictions? You decide. For Kerrie, and for the family left behind, this was never simply a verdict.

    The Kerrie Palmer Story | Beneath The Noosa Sunshine

    A missing man. A violent search. A quiet Noosa street that became the scene of a tragedy. In January 2003, 20-year-old Kerrie Palmer vanished from Queensland’s Sunshine Coast. What began as a dispute over money escalated into a relentless pursuit through the streets of Noosa Heads, drawing ordinary residents into a night of fear, violence and unanswered questions. Three days later, Kerrie was found buried in a shallow grave at Mudjimba. In this episode of Coffee and Crime AU, we examine the events that unfolded beneath Noosa’s postcard-perfect image: the search for Kerrie, the assaults and intimidation that occurred along the way, the final movements reconstructed by police, and the court case that followed. You’ll hear the evidence presented at trial, the forensic findings that helped investigators piece together Kerrie’s last hours, and the legal outcome that saw four men convicted of manslaughter rather than murder. This is not just a story about a crime. It is the story of a son, a twin, a brother and a father whose life ended in violence, and of the family left to live with that loss. 🎙️ Listen now to The Kerrie Palmer Story | Beneath the Noosa Sunshine. ⚠️ Content warning: This episode contains discussion of violence, assault and homicide.
