The Disappearance of Chantelle and Leela McDougall
#12
10/09/2023

In July of 2007, in the remote town of Nannup in Western Australia an entire family disappeared.  A note was left which read  ‘gone to Brazil’ and Chantelle and her daughter Leela, her partner and family friend vanished into thin air.  

What we’ll find as we learn more about this family is that the man at the centre was a controlling internet cult leader living under a stolen identity.  Did he do something to Chantelle and Leela or did the entire family go off the grid and have been living somewhere unable to be found for the last 16 ye...


The Unresolved Case of Tegan Lane
#11
10/02/2023

Tegan Lane’s entire existence was kept a secret.   No one knew she had even been born until 3 years later when a social worker accidentally stumbled across her birth records.   
Her mother Keli had kept her entire 9 month pregnancy and birth with Tegan hidden from her boyfriend,  friends, team mates and even her parents, who she had been living with at the time.   

The last confirmed sighting of Tegan was on the 14th of September 1996 when she was just 2 days old.  Hospital staff released her into the care of her mother and she’s never been seen since...


Missing Women of Coober Pedy: Karen Williams & Anna Rosa Liva
#10
09/25/2023

For decades now, two families have been grieving the loss of their beloved daughters, sisters and friends.  The police always maintained these two missing persons cases were not connected, until fairly recently when they discovered a link… will it be the key to convicting the person they think is responsible? 

Two women from two completely different worlds; Karen Williams, a local Indigenous Australian teen and Anna Rosa Liva, a 30 year old Italian backpacker.  They were different nationalities and different ages but there was one common denominator.  Both went missing from the outback mining town of Coober Pedy back i...


The Story of Leisl Smith
#9
09/18/2023

Leisl Smith was 23 when she was last seen at Tuggerah Railway Station on the New South Wales Central Coast on August 19, 2012.  

The man she’d been having a sexual relationship with at the time, was charged with her murder and went on trial for 3 months.  His final desperate act meant that Leisl’s family would never know the outcome of the trial and in a cruel twist, justice was never served. 

Leisl has never been found.  Is she missing or was she in fact, murdered?

Tune in for this episode on the very recent missing persons case of Celine Cremer, a Belgian backpacker whose disappearance during her solo trip to Philosophers Falls in Tasmania is baffling.

When Celine's family weren’t able to reach her and she wasn’t responding to messages, they contacted police and the search for Celine began.  Her car was found in the carpark of a local walking track which leads to the stunning Philosopher’s Falls.   Celine however…. was nowhere to be found.
