Murders Most Wicked
Tuesday 6 May 8:45pm
Detectives Paul Watson and Grant Gilbert take us through one of their most confounding investigations. An elderly couple are tied up and strangled in their own home, but there are no witnesses and no apparent MO.
From there we take viewers on the hunt for the answers that involves connecting DNA, mysterious bank withdrawals and the sale of an outback pub half a country away from the original crime.
In the end Watson and Gilbert catch their killer, the elderly couple’s gardener, a man they trusted. In his sentencing the judge said the killings were so wicked, cruel and extreme that only life sentences were appropriate.

After working on almost 200 murder investigations in 15 years at Victoria Police Homicide Squad, now retired Detective Jeff Maher trains detectives at the Victorian Police Academy.
