Jill Meagher was a 29-year-old woman who was raped and murdered while walking home from Bar Etiquette in Brunswick, Victoria, in the early hours of the Saturday 22nd of September, 2012.

Jill was initially considered a missing person when she didn’t return home to her husband, Tom Meagher. The pair, who were originally from Ireland, lived in an apartment in Lux Way, Brunswick. It soon became a murder investigation when Jill’s handbag was discovered in an alleyway not far from home near where she’d last been seen, and CCTV footage from the local Duchess Boutique clothing store showed Jill talking with a man wearing a blue hoodie.

Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the details of a crime that stunned Australia. We talk about Jill, who she was, and what she meant to so many people, the police investigation, and the violent criminal who took her life: Adrian Ernest Bayley.
