Welcome to the Episode 43 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime.
About the episode:
On the 12th of June 2023, a 57 year old woman disappeared without a trace in Bethelsdorp. She had last been seen around 10am when she left her home that morning. Little did anyone know that the reason for her disappearance was due to a danger that lurked within her safe space; the very walls she called home.
The perpetrator no stranger; the crime so brutal; another illustration of the disturbing state of affairs in South Africa.
This is the disturbing case of Desiree Hutton Baartman
