The Sandman Panel Van Murders with True Crime Island...
On July 5th, 2012, Cindy Masonwell and her husband Scott Maitland flew from Mt Isa to Cairns, in far north Queensland, to pick up their HJ Holden Sandman Panel Van. The couple loved their sweet ride and entrusted a mechanic named Brandon Peter Macgowen to restore it at a local workshop. They would never be seen alive again. This is the story of the Sandman Panel Van murders.
