ABOUT THE EASEY STREET MURDERS

Over a six-part series of features, podcasts and mini-documentaries, we go back to the Sues’ childhood, their move to the city, their shocking deaths and the many attempts by police and forensic investigators to find justice for Suzanne Armstrong and Susan Bartlett.

I think there should be a real look into the relationship between Erin and Simon. was she frightened of him?
And here we are, with the BBC reporting the presentencing story this morning (26 August) and calling Erin "one of Australia's most notorious murderers". Have they never heard of Ivan Milat???
Simon sounds interesting. If he wanted to set his wife up it sounds like he would know how to do it. Why did he leave his kids with her if he thought she was making poisonous food?
I've heard one rising inflection too many - I can't take any more!
A Court Reporter who doesn't know how to use pronouns - unfreaking believable!!
How much fact checking is done? Contrary to what the podcast says Morwell does NOT have a population of 60000, it is closer to 15000. Latrobe City, which includes Morwell, Moe, Traralgon and Churchill as well as other small outlying towns has a population of close to 80,000. If you can make a glaring mistake like this how accurate is the rest of your podcast?
The narrator has a most annoying croaky, "vocal fry" affectation that some young girls have recently adopted. I stopped listening after 10 minutes. Unbearable.
A podcast with absolutely no information apart from what is publicly available and commonly known.

the lady being interviewed literally ends every single sentence like it's a question...lol. She's 100 times worse than any California valley girl I've ever heard.
I mean, Gordon Ramsey says that everyone forgot about beef wellington until he brought it back but that doesn't mean it's true. lol
