On a gloomy November afternoon in 1966, 49-year-old Dr Helen Davidson, a beloved GP, was bashed to death in Hodgemoor Wood while birdwatching. Her body was found the following day and as soon as news of her murder hit her hometown the rumour mill began to churn. Who would kill the beloved doctor? Did she stumble across something she shouldn’t have seen? Or was the murder personally motivated – what was at play: jealousy, vengeance perhaps? To this day, the case with more suspects than convictions remains unsolved. It is a true murder mystery, a whodunnit that played out rather more like an Agatha Christie mystery than a real-life crime.Sponsor:

On the morning of January 27, 2015, three members of the Van Breda family were found dead at their luxury home in Stellenbosch. Two of the children survived: 16-year-old Marli was at the brink of death and 20-year-old Henri only suffered minor injuries. The crime scene was a blood bath, and Henri described an attack by an axe-wielding madman wearing a mask. But police suspected the Van Breda’s surviving son knew more than he was letting on.Sponsor:

In the month of July, we are celebrating Evidence Locker’s third birthday and our 150th episode. For the last episode in our Blockbuster series, we explore the true crime case behind the Australian Noir film, Snowtown.
John Bunting, Robert Wagner and James Vlassakis committed a series of brutal murders in Adelaide between 1992 and 1999. The remains of eight victims were found in six acid-filled barrels in a disused bank vault in the small town of Snowtown, which is why the case is known as Snowtown (or the 'Bodies in the Barrels' case). A possible 12 people lost their lives to the group, who were on a mission to ‘cleanse’ society. Their victims were all known to them: neighbours, friends, family… Warning: This episode contains references to child abuse and details of severe torture of adult victims by homophobic killers and would not be suitable for sensitive listeners.For pictures and more information, join us on Facebook

In the month of July, we are celebrating Evidence Locker’s third birthday and our 150th episode. With this in mind, we decided on a Blockbuster theme. This week we look into the true crime case behind Steven Spielberg’s film, Munich. Palestinian militant group Black September took nine 11 members of the Israeli Olympic team hostage during the Summer Olympics of 1972. The world watched as events unfolded, and it ended in the death of all the hostages and a German police officer, as well as five of the eight terrorists. To avenge their murders, Operation Wrath of God was born, a covert mission to take out everyone who had played a part in the Munich Massacre.For pictures and more information, join us on Facebook

This week we explore the second case in our Blockbuster series. Before Academy Award-winning film Parasite, director Bong Joon Ho made Memories of Murder, inspired by the 1986-1991 Hwaseong Serial Murders. The film was released in 2003, with the hope of keeping the unsolved case alive. More than 30 years after the first murder, DNA evidence pointed to a man who was already in prison, serving a life sentence for killing his sister-in-law.
