After 45 years, Cold Case Investigations have made a breakthrough in the murder of 22-year-old Kerryn Tate.

In this podcast, Cold Case Western Australia host Neil Poh will take listeners behind the scenes of the extraordinary investigation that led detectives to identify Terence John Fisher as a significant suspect in Kerryn’s brutal murder.

Cold Case Western Australia followers will recall Kerryn’s murder was examined by Poh in an earlier episode for the series. In that first episode, he spoke to Kerryn’s siblings about the ongoing impact of the crime.

In this new and exclusive podcast, Poh again speaks to Kerryn’s siblings – but this time they speak of their reaction to having some answers about their sister’s death.

Kerryn Tate’s badly burnt body was discovered at Karragullen on 30 December 1979. She’d been bludgeoned to death and then set on fire. 
 
 Kerryn had come to Western Australia from New South Wales following the death of one of her baby twins, but her search for a new life was ended in the most brutal of circumstances.
