Shortcut: The "Human Tiger" Inside Pentridge Prison

Shortcut: The "Human Tiger" Inside Pentridge Prison

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

In the 19th century, Victorian newspapers labeled Pentridge Prison inmate John Weachurch as a "bloodthirsty werewolf."

Who was this supposed homicidal maniac who, for a time, shared his prison sentence with Ned Kelly? And why did he not share the same fame as the aforementioned inmate?

Michael Adams from the Forgotten Australia podcast joins us on this episode of Australian True Crime to tell us all about the "rebel with a cause," John Weachurch.
