Welcome to the Episode 41 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime.

About the episode:

“I am a charming psychopath and grateful to be a clever serial killer”.

 

These are the shocking words of not only an aspiring crime writer but a cold blooded murderer. The crime he committed sent shockwaves through the nation for its brutal nature. An innocent woman his victim, none the wiser to the dark intentions of someone who was watching her; biding his time- from just metres away from her home. 

 

And as the case unfolded and more evidence came to light, the disturbing mind of this man became known to the public. During a year full of violence towards women from a murder in a post office to the murder of a young girl and her grandfather by a family member- this case reaffirmed the fact that GBV is out of control in our beloved country.

 

This is the senseless and heartbreaking case of the murder of Lynette Volschenk.
