The Abduction of Stephanie Slater and Murder by the River Lark...

Michael Sams was a one legged rapist, murderer and piss-poor extortion artist. After he abducted real estate agent Stephanie Slater, the police thought she was dead for sure, but she courageously managed to survive 8 days in his captivity.

In 2005, the small village of Fornham St Martin in Suffolk was horrified when the scorched body of Dawn Walker was found by the River Lark. Who would murder such a loved 37 year old in such a heinous way? All evidence pointed towards her boyfriend Kevin Nunn, but if he did it, did he act alone? And was the circumstantial evidence they had against him compelling enough for a conviction?

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.
