In this episode, Jen tells Cam about one of Australia’s most infamous cases.

On July 2, 1970, tourists visiting the Loch Ard Gorge in Port Campbell see a yellow Hudson sedan 52 feet below the cliffs. Once the police bring the vehicle to safety, they discover the bodies of Therese(35), Kathryn (13), James (8), and Karen(6).

The police suspect the deaths to be murder-suicide. But, things aren't always what they seem. When investigators enter the family home, they find a horrifying crime scene.

Join us as we discuss this week's episode Hanging From A Cliff: The Crawford Family Murders.
