158. Terrible Temptress Michelle Burgess

Author: Tara Sariban and Barney Black June 8, 2020 Duration: 1:04:14

Michelle Burgess had a history of cheating on her husband, but a sordid affair she started in the year 2000 took it to another level. Her husband’s boss Kevin Matthews fell hard for the saucy strumpet and they soon began to plan the murders of their spouses.


Looking for a contract killer at her children’s primary school seemed like the easy part, but could they get away with murder when news of their affair had gotten so public? And was their junkie amatuer hitman Dave Key up for the job? 


TCNT: Mike tells us about the documentary "The Cult of the Family".


Aussie As: An erotic role play does not go to plan when men with machetes invade the wrong house.

Hosted by Tara Sariban and Barney Black, Bloody Murder-A True Crime Podcast digs into the darker corners of history, focusing on crimes that haven't been covered to exhaustion elsewhere. This award-nominated show explores lesser-known cases from Australia and across the globe, offering detailed narratives that are often overlooked. What sets this podcast apart is its unique tone-a blend of deep research and unexpected comedy that arises naturally from the hosts' dynamic and their own perspective as dedicated true crime fans. The humour is careful and considered, never mocking the victims or the gravity of the events discussed. Instead, it's the odd tangent, the personal reaction, or the absurdity surrounding a case that provides a moment of levity, making the exploration of difficult topics more engaging. Listeners will find a conversation that feels like joining two friends who are equally fascinated and critical, dissecting the how and why while treating the subject with respect. Each episode aims to add a fresh voice to the genre, prioritizing stories that are compelling precisely because they aren't the ones you've already heard a dozen times. It’s this commitment to uncovering obscure tales, paired with a genuinely distinctive rapport between the hosts, that defines the experience of this particular true crime podcast.
