The Michael Kanaan Story - Special Edition...

To celebrate our 100th Episode we’ve joined forces with Cambo Ford to bring you Bloody Murder on True Crime Island: The Michael Kanaan Story!

Michael Kanaan is an Australian triple murderer from Sydney. He was second in charge of the notorious gang DK’s Boys who controlled the cocaine trade in Kings Cross in the late 90’s and were involved in all manner of tomfoolery, their violent crimes included kneecapping, extortion and shooting cops.

Most of Sydney’s traditional criminal underworld worked under the radar. They avoided clashes with cops like the plague. DK’s boys were a new breed, all anger and firepower. They had balls made of bullets and they weren’t afraid to use them.

This is a classic tale of a modern Aussie crim who grew up aspiring to live like the gangsters in the American movies he watched repeatedly. As is usually the case, things did not turn out well for anyone involved!

The Vampire of Paris and Gangster Chow Hayes...

Nicolas Claux was a blood-drinking, cannibalistic hospital worker whose hobbies included desecrating graves and worshipping Satan. Nicknamed "The Vampire of Paris," this death-obsessed ghoul decided to kill someone, because…well it fit his image.

Chow Hayes was a violent, sadistic standover man, and murderer. In 1930, Chow became the first Australian criminal to be described by police as a "gangster". He would graduate from child thug to celebrity criminal by the age of 23 and wreaked havoc on the streets of Sydney for over five decades.

Murderous Mary and the Vanishing of Paddy Moriarty...

Described as a woman with "lovely russet hair, fine blue eyes, of normal build, with nice shapely hands" Mary Pearcey was a rather unconventional English woman who was convicted of murdering her lover's wife and child. She was sentenced to dangle on the end of a noose for her crimes. This is a patron request for Emily Kirkpatrick 

On a hot December afternoon in 2007, 70 year Paddy Moriarty and his dog went missing in Larimah in the Northern Territory. Foul play was suspected. Police rounded up the usual suspects, the entire population of this tiny desert town, all 11 of them, all elderly. What would emerge, was plenty of motive and a decade long feud over pies.

Bloody Babs and You Me Car Park Now!...

Nicknamed "Bloody Babs" by the press, vamp from the wrong side of the tracks, Barbra Graham had multiple convictions for disorderly conduct, vagrancy, suspicion of prostitution and perjury by her early twenties. In 1953, she stepped it up a notch when she and her no-good boyfriend murdered 64-year-old widow Mabel Monohan in the course of a robbery.

One drunken night in 2011, Richard Devries found himself on the wrong end of a punch over a car parking space. What he did next was brutal and disproportionate and led to two murders and had most people scratching their heads and asking why wasn't this man already in prison?

The Killer Bride and Take my Last Beers and I'll Kill You...

Ashley Laney and Tracey Humphrey were married on the 4th of July, 2003. The next day, Ashley murdered Tracey’s ex-girlfriend Sandra Rosso, who was due to go to court to testify against him in an assault case. Did Ashley commit this murder of her own accord, or was she just a puppet for her controlling new husband?

Ever heard someone say ‘touch my beer and I’ll kill you’? Usually this is just an expression, but not for Northern Territory man Gary Miles. Gary killed his mate Paul Stamp because he drank his last four beers. Paul's murder would reveal the ugly face of alcohol fuelled violence in all it's tragic and brutal glory.

Their fight began when Frank got annoyed at Gerardus because he couldn’t remember how to use the printer, even though Frank had showed him loads of times before.

The Sinister Minister and The Mad Scientist...

Pennsylvania Pastor AB Schirmer’s wives had an unfortunate habit of dying suddenly in - rather ridiculous circumstances. Due to his stature, nobody thought to be suspicious of their deaths. But after the suicide of his mistress Cindy Musante’s husband, everything started to come undone for the Sinister Minister.

In Tasmania in 1983, Rory Jack Thompson strangled his ex-wife. He then cut her up into 91 pieces and flushed her down the toilet. Was this spectrum-surfing sociopath, this professor of fluid dynamics, just another man who horrifically murdered an ex-partner he couldn't control? Or is there more to his story?

The Abduction of Stephanie Slater and Murder by the River Lark...

Michael Sams was a one legged rapist, murderer and piss-poor extortion artist. After he abducted real estate agent Stephanie Slater, the police thought she was dead for sure, but she courageously managed to survive 8 days in his captivity.

In 2005, the small village of Fornham St Martin in Suffolk was horrified when the scorched body of Dawn Walker was found by the River Lark. Who would murder such a loved 37 year old in such a heinous way? All evidence pointed towards her boyfriend Kevin Nunn, but if he did it, did he act alone? And was the circumstantial evidence they had against him compelling enough for a conviction?
