We have decided to finish up making episodes for True Blue Crime. Listen to a message from us out now where you get your podcasts.

This will undoubtedly be a surprise and be disappointing for many people, but we want to finish things on our terms and now feels like the right time to do that.

It’s a decision that we don't take lightly and we’ve been discussing for a while now, and we’ve reached it together.

When we started this show, we committed to ten episodes, and didn’t expect anyone outside of our partners, family and friends to listen to it. We were stunned when the downloads kept going up and more and more people were tuning in.

We feel that we’ve taken the show in its current format with our current resources as far as we can.

It's been a blast making these episodes for you all. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for listening, giving our show a chance, and following us throughout our journey.

Robbie and Amber spoke on the phone regularly, but fell out of touch as time went on. But then one day, all of a sudden, Amber was moving into Robbie’s house, which was a surprise to him.

He asked his Mum, Anne, why Amber was there, was she boarding with them now or something? Anne said words to the effect of ‘you know what your father’s like...”

It was mid afternoon on May the 7th 1990, and Wendy Davis was working at the Hollywood Hospital in Nedlands.

She was at her desk, immersed in her work, when she heard a voice behind her ask ‘is it okay if I use the toilet?’

Wendy swivelled in her chair and saw a young Telecom worker, all of 20, 21 years old.
She nodded. A moment later Wendy felt a hand on her shoulder and another hand over her mouth…

Nicole awoke in her bed with someone next to her, but it wasn’t her boyfriend like she first thought. It was someone else. She grabbed his face, dug her fingernails in hard, and the man jumped up from the bed.

He was tall and wearing a light coloured silk kimono. Nicole screamed for her father in the next room, and the man fled from the house.

Nicole called the police and they attended the house, but the intruder had escaped, leaving behind just one clue as to his identity; the semen-stained white and apricot coloured kimono.

It was the 17th of April, 1999, and in Adelaide, South Australia, two rookie police officers were coming to the end of their shift.

As the two young officers returned to their vehicle, they noticed a handwritten note on their windscreen, wedged under the wipers.
It read: ‘There’s a dead girl's body in the shrubs of the grounds near the main road of the Payneham Police Station. This is no joke.’

Join Shaun as he tells the tale of two seemingly unconnected murders which occurred two years apart, and the phone calls which led them to the perpetrator who’d committed both crimes.

As the car drew closer, Daniel turned on the kitchen light and headed out front to see who was arriving at 3AM. The family dogs were barking out the back, attuned to the strange hour the person was visiting.

Daniel walked down the driveway to see the driver, who got out of the car. But he’d left the headlights on, so it was too bright for Daniel to clearly see who it was...

Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the callous murders of the young MacKenzie family - the details of which were ordered to be sealed - and the police investigation and groundbreaking scientific work which exposed the perpetrator.

This was a guy who’d worked a number of different jobs in his time - aside from the Navy, he’d been a sheet metal fabricator, a commercial diver, air system technician, a welder and even a postie. He’d also lived in pretty much every Australian State, and even ventured to New Zealand at one stage between May and August of 2006.

If Sara Lee Davey and Rachael Campbell were indeed two of his victims, who is the third victim?

Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the disappearance of Sara Lee Davey, the murder of Rachael Campbell, and the su***de note of a self-confessed serial killer, who admitted to killing three people during his life.

New Episode out now!

Not long after sunrise Peter Leutenegger was flying his chopper across the Jubilee Downs Station, singing along to a few of his favourite Slim Dusty songs. He was mustering horses in preparation for the upcoming Fitzroy Crossing Rodeo; a popular annual event that saw many people travel to the area, when he noticed something unusual on the ground below.

It appeared to be a vehicle, but it was well covered by some form of camouflage. The power of his chopper blades slightly blew the green covering off the vehicle, and Peter thought he’d seen a man lying down inside, a man with no shirt on, camouflage pants, and a bandanna wrapped around his head...

Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the series of brutal spree murders throughout the Kimberley region in 1987, the unlikely helicopter pilot who located the killer, and the tactical police response that brought him down.
