Last year the Teacher's Pet podcast gripped the nation as the disappearance and suspected murder of Sydney mother-of-two Lynette Dawson was brought back into the spotlight, with her husband Chris arrested over her murder in December.
The Claremont Serial Killings,hosted by The West Australian’s veteran crime and investigative reporter Gary Adshead, takes listeners into the shocking murders of three young women from the well-to-do Perth suburb of Claremont in 1996 and 1997.
The first girl, 18-year-old Sarah Spiers, disappeared after calling a taxi. Her body has never been found. A few months later Jane Rimmer, 23, disappeared, and her body is found in bushland weeks later.
As police begin searching for a serial killer, 27-year-old Ciara Glennon is taken and killed with her body found dumped in bushland three weeks after her disappearance.
Australia's longest running murder investigation, this podcast and cold case is especially timely it has been reopened 23 years later, with accused murderer Bradley Edwards set to stand trial in July.
Edwards, who is accused of murdering Sarah Spiers, Jane Rimmer and Ciara Glennon, is also facing charges of attacking an 18-year-old girl in her own home in 1988, and of abducting and sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl at a Cemetery in 1995.
The 50-year-old, a former Little Athletics volunteer, is denying any involvement in the cases.
