Murderous Mary and the Vanishing of Paddy Moriarty...

Described as a woman with "lovely russet hair, fine blue eyes, of normal build, with nice shapely hands" Mary Pearcey was a rather unconventional English woman who was convicted of murdering her lover's wife and child. She was sentenced to dangle on the end of a noose for her crimes. This is a patron request for Emily Kirkpatrick 

On a hot December afternoon in 2007, 70 year Paddy Moriarty and his dog went missing in Larimah in the Northern Territory. Foul play was suspected. Police rounded up the usual suspects, the entire population of this tiny desert town, all 11 of them, all elderly. What would emerge, was plenty of motive and a decade long feud over pies.

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.
