E82: Malcom Johnn Naden

This week Beth and Wendy discuss Malcolm Johnn Naden, an indigenous Australian man who killed two women, members of his own family, Lateesha Nolan and Kristy Scholes in Dubbo, New South Wales, Australia. After his crimes, he hid out in the bush for seven years before he was finally caught.

We dive into the setting (11:21), the killers early life (32:32) and the timeline.  

As usual we close out the show with some shout outs, crime news, and of course, some tips on how not to get murdered.
