Deadly Serious

This week on Deadly Serious, we’re looking at five crimes so dumb, you genuinely won’t believe they happened. From robbers accidentally calling 911 on themselves mid-crime, to a man who covered his face in lemon juice because he thought it would make him invisible to security cameras… these are some of the most ridiculous criminal plans to ever go spectacularly wrong.

From the outside, Donnah Winger was living a picture-perfect life. A tight knit family, an adoring husband, and a newborn.

But the idyllic bubble shattered after an unsettling airport shuttle ride, which left Donnah terrified for the next week. 

Days later, a horrific violent attack in their Springfield home left both Donnah and the shuttle driver dead. Within 48 hours, police ruled it a closed case, and her husband Mark was the tragic hero, who was left to pick up the pieces.

However not everything is what it seems, it took years and a new detective to uncover the truth.

This week on Deadly Serious, I have the beautiful Susie McLean joining me. You may know Susie from her role on Real Housewives of Melbourne, but Susie is also my boyfriend Rupert's mum.

Although you may be familiar with Susie's life on screen, that isn't always the reality. Susie has had two separate stalkers which have led to years of terrifying phone calls, incidents, and police action, and to this day, one of them is still out there.

Susie shares her warnings on what to look out for, and how to stay safe. We might be giving too much information away on social media, without even knowing it.
