Episodes

* Anita Cobby (Nine Network premiere: Tuesday 14 Aug. 2007)The premiere of Crime Investigation Australia examined the police investigation into the brutal abduction, gang rape and murder of Sydney nurse Anita Cobby. Her murder has been remembered as one of the most horrifying and violent crimes ever perpetrated in Australia. Anita's parents Grace and Garry Lynch were interviewed, along with many police officers and detectives involved in the case. Chillingly, this episode featured actual audio excerpts of the callous jailhouse confession of her killer, John Travers. Author © Norm Lipson.
* The Wanda Beach Murders / Beaumont FamilyIn the 1960s, the Wanda Beach Murders occurred, and the Beaumont children disappeared from Glenelg beach in Adelaide. These events changed the social landscape of Australia forever as children's freedom and innocence were under attack. The Beaumont children have never been found - their case resulted in the largest police investigation in Australian criminal history, and still to this day, remains unsolved.
