Miles from shore, surrounded by thousands of strangers and an ocean that keeps its secrets, cruise ships create a strangely perfect environment for things to go wrong. In this episode of Getting to Know the Dead, dead bug says looks at why life at sea can become a blind spot for justice — where jurisdiction blurs, evidence disappears over railings, and a floating holiday can quietly turn into a crime scene. Because when you’re days from land and the water stretches in every direction, the truth can sink faster than anyone expects.

A quiet lunch. A homemade meal. And a decision that would end three lives and destroy several more. In this episode of "What Happened?" DEADBUG revisits the mushroom poisoning case that shocked Australia the calculated meal, the slow realisation that something was terribly wrong, and the courtroom moment when Erin Patterson finally learned the price of what happened at that table. Starting with the sentence that will likely keep her behind bars for the rest of her life, we step back through the psychology, the silence, and the unsettling question that still hangs over the case: what kind of mind turns a family lunch into a crime scene?

Ian Huntley a name Britain will never forget is back in the headlines after a violent attack inside one of the country’s most secure prisons. In this episode of Getting to Know the Dead, I dig into what we actually know about the assault, the brutal hierarchy of prison life, and why certain offenders sit at the very bottom of that food chain. No hysteria. No pearl-clutching. Just the psychology, the system, and the uncomfortable question of what justice is supposed to look like once the cell door closes. If you think the story ended in 2003, think again.

In this the first flagship episode of our new series I sit down with Forensic Psychiatrist Dr Sohom Das to pry open the mind of a killer: the man who murdered my friend, 16 year old Darlene Prioriello in Mississauga Canada May 1982. We’ll trace the small, ordinary moments that became terrifying the late-night call, the brazen taunts, the way a life was erased and a family was haunted and hear how David Dobson moved from shadow to headline. Listen if you want to go beyond the headlines and into the clinical, cold-spark logic that turns curiosity into violence — gentle warning: this one gets close, and it doesn’t look away.

He had two reasons to do what he did... three if he was drunk. A quiet Virginia suburb. A respectable husband. A trusted employee. And a digital trail that turns fantasy into something far more permanent. This week on the podcast, we unravel a story where betrayal isn’t the worst crime committed it’s just the beginning. Because when desire meets delusion, someone always ends up paying the price.

They were just driving down a quiet country road when they saw a 12-year-old girl stumbling out of the darkness, barefoot, disoriented, intoxicated, and very much alone. In a place where nothing ever happens, something unspeakable already had. What she would tell authorities would unravel a story so disturbing it would leave an entire community reeling. Behind a closed door, inside a home no one thought twice about, a nightmare had been unfolding in silence. In this episode, we trace the hours that led to her escape, the man at the centre of it all, and the chilling questions that surfaced once the truth began to spill out.

Behind manicured hedgerows and winding country lanes, where reputations are polished and doors are rarely locked, something slipped quietly through the calm. A village that believed it was insulated from the darker edges of the world. But in the stillness of a Buckinghamshire night, that illusion shattered and there is a brutal murder that today people still don't want to talk about.
