One Survivor, One Note, No Clear Truth: The Bain Family Massacre

One Survivor, One Note, No Clear Truth: The Bain Family Massacre

Five members of one family were found shot to death inside their home in Dunedin, New Zealand. Parents Robin Bain and Margaret Bain, along with their children Arawa (19), Laniet (18), and Stephen (14), were all killed in the early morning hours of June 20, 1994. The only person left alive was the eldest son, David Bain, who said he had been out delivering newspapers at the time of the murders. Inside the house, police discovered a chilling message typed on the family computer:“Sorry, you are the only one who deserved to stay.” What followed was one of the most controversial and divisive criminal cases in New Zealand’s history. In this episode of Serial Napper, we take a deep dive into the Bain family murders, a case that has split public opinion for decades. We examine the deeply dysfunctional family dynamic, the disturbing events leading up to the killings, and the two competing theories that continue to fuel debate. This is a case where the courts delivered a verdict, but never certainty.Where five people lost their lives.And where the truth may have died with them.
