There are a number of big stories in true crime at the moment, including a new dig for clues in the 1966 disappearance of the Beaumont children.

Meanwhile, it's been a year since Ballarat’s Samantha Murphy vanished—even as a suspect has been charged, her remains remain missing.

Former NSW officer Beau Lamarre-Condon is heading to trial for the murders of Jesse Baird and his partner Luke Davies, while international controversy swirls over former pediatric nurse Lucy Letby's conviction for murdering seven infants.

To discuss all of those developing stories is as regular contributor to Australian True Crime and leading Criminologist Dr. Xanthé Mallett.
