Murder in the Outback: The Falconio & Lees Mystery

The repetition aspect probably would have been avoided if Seven showed the documentary in the same way Channel 4 did (ie; as 4 x 1 hour episodes) rather than P1/P2 last night and P3/P4 this Sunday

This Sunday, Part II of the top-rating true crime event that’s making world headlines.

From the heart of the Australian outback, the inside story of the terrifying crime that shocked the world.

This blockbuster four-part true crime series investigates the 2001 disappearance of British backpacker Peter Falconio in outback Australia.

Every detail and the dramas that have surrounded this extraordinary case from day one are examined in this comprehensive re-investigation.

With exclusive access to the never-before-seen original defence case documents, the documentary will re-examine the evidence put forward at the trial of the man convicted of Falconio’s murder – Bradley John Murdoch.

The case you think was closed. The murder you thought was solved. What really happened on that night in the outback?

Ratings killer !
How about the double twist with Joanna Lee’s alter ego friend by e-mail !

Good take on it.

Why anyone would be interested in a yarn from a crook like Fraser is beyond me.

Sounds like it would have been a good fit on the old Sunday Night with how questionable the content is :sweat_smile:

Do you know what an alter ego is?


Also confirmed that the documentary was commissioned by Channel 4 before it was picked up locally by Seven.

Very thorough investigation, shows why we should not believe in a sole witnesses account, with lots of inconstancies’ to her story. The police also acted assisted in fabricating a witnesses account and a failure by the police to question the witnesses statements with evidence from the crime scene .

They should do the George Pell story next, that would really expose the truth!

Yeah cool, then they can do one on how Fraser himself (despite the guilty plea) was an innocent lamb in his own criminal proceedings which saw him wrongfully convicted.

The answer to Channel 7’s question is - we already have the answer. It’s not whatever sewage spills out of this program.

You clearly haven’t done much research outside what you watched. The investigation was not thorough and they left A LOT out. What a shockingly uneducated post.
