Sydney, NSW, 1961 and the body of a man is found stabbed to death in a public bath, his genitals cut clean off and thrown into Sydney Harbour.
What followed after this grim discovery was only the beginning for the serial killer the media quickly dubbed 'The Mutilator' and left 3 more men dead, genitals removed on all but one, and police at a loss as to who the killer was, until the killer was identified....but not in a conventional or normal way. He was identified after he was buried, but had the misfortune to bump into a shocked ex collegue after his funeral. The headline 'The Case of the Walking Corpse' soon followed and brought this sadistic killer's undoing.
Join Belinda as she takes a murky dive into 'The Mutilator' the case that is as disturbing as it is fascinating.
Coffee not essential, but it certainly helps!
