Shortcut: The Murder of Allison Baden-Clay with David Murray - Re-issue #18

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

We're 11 weeks into 2024 and 18 Australian women have been murdered so far this year.

Today we are releasing a re-issue of episode #18, a case I know many of us have been remembering as the search for Samantha Murphy goes on.

It was 12 years ago that we first heard the name Allison Baden-Clay.

Like Samantha Murphy, we were told that Allison, a successful, vibrant pillar of the community, had disappeared into thin air after going for a walk. Her husband and family had also made tearful plays in front of the media as photos of her attractive, smiling face were circulated.

Journalist David Murray covered the case and wrote the excellent book, The Murder of Allison Baden-Clay, and he joined us to talk about it.

This is an episode from behind our paywall. To access all of those episodes, plus early access to ad free new episodes, you can subscribe to ATC Plus on Apple Podcasts.
