August 1992, and the idyllic rural town of Bargo in New South Wales, is rocked by the senseless and cold blooded murder of nine year old schoolgirl, Ebony Simpson.
Ebony's killer, a father himself, wasn't too hard to catch, however, with sightings of a strange man in a car hanging by the area's schools and the bus stop where Ebony walked home from everyday. He even joined the large scale search party looking for Ebony after he kidnapped and raped her and then callously threw her to her death in a dam.
Join Belinda as she takes a deep dive into the heartbreaking and unimaginable murder of Ebony Simpson and how her family were able to rise above their grief and help other families suffering the same fate as them.
Definitely have double or triple coffee shot for this episode - or something a little stronger.
