Descripción

Four year old Gus Lamont vanished without a trace from his family’s remote outback property in South Australia, sparking one of the largest missing person searches in the state’s history. Hundreds of searchers, specialist trackers, drones, helicopters, and police scoured the rugged landscape, yet not a single trace of Gus was found. What began as a desperate search for a missing child has since evolved into a major crime investigation, with police ruling out the possibility that Gus simply wandered away and identifying a suspect known to him. In this episode of Exhuming the Truth, we examine the timeline of Gus’s disappearance, the forensic and investigative challenges posed by the remote environment, the search strategies employed, the inconsistencies that shifted police focus, and the disturbing questions that remain unanswered in one of Australia’s most haunting recent child disappearance cases. Where is Gus Lamont, and what really happened on that isolated station? Sources and case background include publicly available reporting on the investigation and police updates.

Inside the Claremont Serial Killer Bradley Edwards' Home: The Everyday Items that Helped Solve the Claremont Serial Killings

When police arrested Bradley Robert Edwards in December of 2016, they entered what appeared to be an ordinary suburban home in Perth. There were no secret chambers or obvious trophies displayed on his walls, nothing that immediately resembled the scenes often portrayed in crime dramas. Yet, hidden among everyday household possessions were items that would become crucial pieces of one of Australia's most significant criminal investigations. In this episode we examine what investigators found inside the home of the man later convicted of the murders of Claremont women Jane Rimmer and Ciara Glennon. We take a forensic and criminological look at how investigators connect small details, behavioural patterns, and physical evidence to build a case against a serial offender. Listener discretion is advised.
