On the night of September 6th, 1971, a quiet farmhouse in Hope Forest, South Australia, became the scene of an unimaginable horror. Clifford Bartholomew, a 40-year-old husband and father, calmly and methodically murdered ten people—his wife, seven children, his sister-in-law, and her toddler.

This episode explores life inside the Bartholomew household, the events that led to the massacre, Clifford’s shocking arrest, and the legal aftermath. Decades later, Clifford resurfaced his dark past hidden until it was unearthed long after his death.
