S1E11 The Wanda Beach Murders/Beaumont Children Mystery

Aug 01, 2005 Season 1 Episode 11 Crime, Documentary

In this gripping episode, CI delves into two of Australia's most notorious unsolved cases: The Wanda Beach Murders and the Beaumont Children Mystery. In 1965, amidst a vibrant teenage culture fueled by sun and surf, Sydney was rocked by the horrendous assault and murder of two 15-year-old girls in the dunes of Wanda Beach. Despite an extensive police investigation, the perpetrator evaded capture. Over four decades later, suspicions arise that he may be a recognized psychotic killer. A year later, on Australia Day, three young siblings—Jane, Arnna, and Grant Beaumont—vanished from a beach in Adelaide. Did a man seen playing with them abduct them, or were they victims of an accident, as suggested by a renowned clairvoyant brought in by worried locals? Are they still alive?
