EP43: Murdered and Missing in Tasmania.
Description
In this episode, we cover two haunting cases from Tasmania that remain unsolved to this day. First, we look at the tragic 1995 murder of 20-year-old Italian tourist Victoria Cafasso, whose body was discovered on a remote beach in Beaumaris. Despite one of the largest investigations in the state’s history, her killer has never been found.
We then turn to the disappearance of 26-year-old Nancy Grunwaldt, a German backpacker who vanished near Beaumaris in 1993. Leaving her family with no justice and investigators with a difficult case that has never been resolved.
Together, these two cases highlight the dangers faced by young travellers exploring unfamiliar places.
