Summary

This week, Tom and Ben head BACK to Australia to cover one of the darkest and most infamous cases in modern Australian history - the gruesome case of ‘The Bodies in Barrels; it is, of course, The Snowtown Murders.

How did John Bunting, Robert Wagner and James Vlassakis come to meet? What crucial task was not followed up when the group claimed their first victim? Was childhood trauma to blame or was this a case of neighbourhood vigilantes? And how on earth did everything culminate in a disused bank vault in Snowtown?

Tune in and all will be revealed!
