In 2001, British tourist Peter Falconio and his girlfriend Joanne Lees were traveling around the world on the trip of a lifetime.

On a cold night in June 2001, the couple were driving through the remote Australian outback. A passing motorist named Bradley John Murdoch motioned to the couple to stop their vehicle because of car troubles. Peter pulled over and got out of the car. What happened next is the stuff of nightmares.

Joanne heard a loud bang and Peter dropped out of sight. Bradley then attempted to abduct Joanne, but she managed to escape into the desert where she hid for hours.

Bradley would eventually be charged with Peter’s murder, but Joanne faced vicious attacks from the media who questioned her every move. The media interest in this trial was so large that the court went under a massive renovation costing almost $1 million dollars.

23 years later, Peter’s body has never been found.

Missing Corinna Slusser & Human Trafficking

Missing Corinna Slusser & Human Trafficking

The months before Corinna Slusser turned 19 were rocky, to say the least. It was 2017, she wasn’t getting along with her mom, she dropped out of high school right before graduation and she had a failed suicide attempt that landed her in the hospital.   While she was in the hospital, she met a man who would ultimately change the course of her life forever. Corinna left all of her belongings behind.  Taking only the clothes she was wearing, her phone and her ID, she headed to New York City in August 2017 with this man to follow her dreams. Corinna began escorting and working for various pimps before she vanished completely in September, 2017. Those who saw her last are quick to say she ran off, but police believe something much more sinister happened and that she became a victim of human trafficking. In this episode we discuss Corinna's disappearance and the prevalence of sex trafficking in the USA.  We also chat about the news that has had us all gripped this week -  the cases of runaway teen Madison Bell and the shocking murder of Alejandro Ripley.  Be sure to check out our blog for a timeline of Corinna’s disappearance plus screenshots of now deleted social media from those involved.
