Mums Mysteries & Murder
We're two Mums living in Edinburgh who are obsessed with true crime and mysterious happenings, so obsessed we decided to start a podcast! Each month we take turns to tell stories from our homelands - Effie Scottish born and bred where haggis is NOT actually an animal and Marti from the land down under where no prawns have ever been thrown on a barbie, it needs to be said! So, if you want polished, professional true crime then this is not for you, maybe try Casefile. But if you love true crime and mystery like us & you can't stop talking about it, give us a listen! Its not big or clever but it is entertaining.
Mums Mysteries & Murder
The Wanda Beach Murders
Trigger warning This episode contains themes of sexual abuse, child murder & suicide.
This month Marti covers the Wanda Beach murders which happened in 1965 in Cronulla Sydney, when two young teenage girls caught the train to the beach with their siblings and never came home.
The murders of Christine Sharrock & Marianne Schmidt.
We also talk about one of Australia's most prolific serial killers.
We of course also talk about what we are watching, his Highness Micheal Sheen, lone shoes & weird things found on beaches!
