These are shows we've put our hearts into and are really proud of.Today, we’re showcasing The Frankston Murders. When Vikki Petraitis and I found out that Paul Denyer, the man convicted of the Frankston serial murders, had applied for parole, we strongly felt that the Frankston case deserved a more in-depth series, something that went beyond the headlines to explore the full impact of Denyer’s crimes. The series details the lead-up to the crimes as well as the aftermath, the families, the survivors and the many women who were targeted in the lead-up to the murders, but whose stories hadn’t yet been told. The series went to number one and has been downloaded more than three million times to date.I hope you enjoy the series. Hosted on Acast.
