I tell the story of Odessa Carey Snr and Odessa Carey Jnr in this episode.

In April 2019, Odessa Jnr murdered her mum, Odessa Snr, after attacking her with a mallet.

She then removed her mum's head using scissors and knives before later removing her brain.

After the murder, Odessa Jnr carried her mum's decapitated head around in a plastic carrier bag and reportedly kissed it on the forehead in front of a family friend.

Judge Paul Sloan handed Odessa Jnr a hospital order on March 12, 2020, after deeming her not fit enough to stand trial.

WARNING: This episode focuses heavily on Odessa Jnr's lifelong mental health issues and might be a difficult listen for some.
