TRUE CRIME
Troubled Waters is a 10-part ground-breaking podcast exploring the untold story of Louisa Ioannidis' tragic and mysterious death in 2011. Louisa Ioannidis was only 24. Beautiful, courageous, and vulnerable, yet her untimely death barely received a two-line report in a small local newspaper. Her body was discovered by passers-by in a local creek, clad in a pink dressing gown. Despite being a strong swimmer, police quickly determined there were no suspicious circumstances. Yet no one has been able to explain how or why she came to enter the creek. Louisa’s brother Tass has always doubted the findings and is desperate for answers. Over a decade after Louisa’s death, Private Investigator Julia Robson embarks on a fresh investigation and explores the full story of Louisa’s short life and the events leading up to her tragic passing. Together with Producer Clare McGrath, they uncover a gripping narrative full of intrigue. From an international kidnapping, a daring escape and a family’s desperate bid to stay together, it all unravels into a downward spiral exacerbated by a toxic relationship, all the while revealing flaws in a family violence support system that desperately needs fixing.

TRUE CRIME
In June 1993, Elizabeth Stevens, 18, was murdered on her way home from the bus stop. Her death began a seven-week reign of terror for the people of Frankston. A serial killer was on the loose. No one was safe, not young mother, Debbie Fream, 22, taken on a trip to the shops, nor Natalie Russell, 17, murdered on her way home from school. The serial killer, Paul Denyer was captured and sentenced to life in prison. On appeal, he was granted a 30-year minimum sentence. Fast forward 30 years and Denyer has applied for parole. Award winning crime writer Vikki Petraitis was on patrol with police the night the final murder took place. She wrote the bestselling book, The Frankston Murders which has never been out of print. Vikki has revisited the case in a longform podcast to remind the world why Denyer must never be released. The Frankston Murders Podcast uncovers new material and new victims stalked by Denyer in the lead-up to the killings. Vikki interviews prison guards, police officers, family members, and people caught in the periphery of a serial killer.Credits:Created by Vikki PetraitisResearch and writing by Vikki PetraitisAudio production and scoring by Mike Migas (https://mikemigas.com/)Audio production by Anthony TelferArchive production by Catherine Seccombe/Arcdive (https://www.arcdive.com/)Archival audio supplied by The Footage Company / Nine Network Australia Hosted on Acast.

(Used to be) One of my top favorite podcasts

UPDATE: I’ve lowered my original 5 star rating (from Aug 2016) to 2 stars bc the narrator seems to have been switched to AI, and this is unlistenable. The cadence is off and robotic. The speed at 1 is too slow, but too fast at 1.25. Very sad as I’ve been listening since the beginning and it was a favorite. ************* 8/2016: I always eagerly look forward to new episodes. I listen to a (probably unhealthy) number of true crime podcasts, & Casefiles is certainly one of my top 3 favorites in this genre. I'm particularly impressed that the producer of this show has often featured a story long before my other favs get to it. (I love when some of the podcasts I listen to cover the same story, bc I get to hear more details/different perspectives). Casefiles' coverage includes many details that the others do not. I live in the U.S., so I love hearing about international true crimes that typically have never been on my radar. An added bonus: the narrator has an amazingly sexy Australian(?*) accent with a cadence & clarity that makes him my favorite podcast host voice to listen to. *(To the host: my apologies if im off about your accent country of origin!)
