About Hunting Justice

From the publisher's feed

Get compelling docos, podcasts, features and more with our new home for crime shows: Hunting Justice.

ABOUT THE MUSHROOM COOK: In 2023, in the small Victorian town of Leongatha, a family sat down for a beef wellington lunch on a wintry Saturday afternoon. Hours later, four of the guests were struck down with illness. Within days, three were dead. Over three compelling seasons of The Mushroom Cook, follow our journalists as they piece together the case and cover the trial and the appeal of the cook, Erin Patterson.

ABOUT THE EASEY STREET MURDERS: In 1977, in the heart of Melbourne, friends Suzanne Armstrong and Susan Bartlett were both stabbed to death in a frenzied ambush inside their home, on Easey Street in Collingwood. Over a six-part series of mini-docos, podcasts and features, we go back to the Sues’ childhood, their move to the city, their shocking deaths and the many attempts by police and forensic investigators to find justice for Suzanne Armstrong and Susan Bartlett.
