  Speaker 1: Before we begin today's show, I want to make a
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: few official statements. One, I don't want to die. I
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: have no plans to take my own life, and if
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: I pass away in the next couple of months, you
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: know who did it. Two, the facts presented in the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: following episode can be independently verified by visiting the resources
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: presented in the description of this podcast. And three, All
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: opinions presented in the Conspiracy Files are solely those of

  Speaker 1: considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: And now let's do a deep dive. Welcome back to
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: the Conspiracy Files. Another day. Here in our new house,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: we're still moving in getting everything set up kind of bright.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: I might record later at night. I tried to move
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: a mattress to block some of the light out. If

  Speaker 1: It's a treat to have everybody here taking this journey
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: with us. This is an episode that is really dark
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: and is going to go down in the history of
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: the Conspiracy Files as one of the darkest, most depraved,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: most disturbing cases we've presented so far. This is a
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: story that haunts me at night, involving a powering on
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: solved King's corrupt officials. It's really twisted stuff. But as always,
• 1:23

• 1:37
  Speaker 1: my beautiful wife Courtney, or you can watch me Ghosts
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: on YouTube at the paranorm Files. But yeah, let's just
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: get into this story. The script is brought to you
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: by sabran Chandler Lewis the Family Murders. So we're gonna
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: start with a quote. It's peaceful, it's gentle, it's well
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: named for a woman. It's got that feeling. End quote.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: A resident of Adelaide in South Australia states this quote
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: with a friendly smile and warm tone. He's being interviewed
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: for a nineteen eighty two promotional video of his city,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: just before it goes on to show beautiful tree lined streets,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: bustling shops, and the kind faces of citizens. If I
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: can arrange it, I should keep coming back here, over
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: and over and over again. An excited performer smiles wildly
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: with an elated expression as she lavishes praise over the city,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: while in the background, the sun shines down on urban
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: treetops visible from the high window, sunshine, trees, and a
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: sea of kind faces. Within this sea, many faces that
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: should be there are missing. These are the faces of
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: young men and children. Five confirmed, but over one hundred
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: and fifty suspected. In the early eighties, the state of
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: South Australia was sent into a panic as bodies began
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: to pile up, all found drugged, brutalized and mutilated. Parents
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: went into morning, and many wondered if their sons were next.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: In a sea of disappearances and assaults, A ring of
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: many suspects were identified, but only one was arrested, and
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: he was only charged with one of the these many murders,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: there could be up to one hundred and fifty of them.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: These people, these monsters, formed a ring of evil in Adelaide,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: a supposedly peaceful and gentle city. They lured men and
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: boys promising safety, but only delivered misery and death. And
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: even as these many names come to light, their connections
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: and protections keep them safe from the consequences of their
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: actions and from the justice they deserve. This ring of evil,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: known as the Family, brought terror to Adelaide in the
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: early years of the nineteen eighties. This title leads people
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: to think of parents and siblings, those who should be
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: loving and kind, But the Family showed anything but love
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: to the sons of Adelaide. Even these many years later
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: after their demise, justice has failed to shine its light
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: in South Australia. But who kept the darkness from being dispelled?
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: And what other demons danced in the shadows? What monsters
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: lurk in the streets of Adelaide, and who's allowing them
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: to this day continued to roam unchecked. Chapter one, City
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: of Corpses. The promotional video of Adelaide in South Australia
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: is a warm, welcoming, bright video, showcasing many of the
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: great experiences that this city has to offer. What it
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: doesn't explain, however, is that over many decades, Adelaide has
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: been center stage for many of Australia's most depraved and
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: sinister crimes. It used to be known as the City
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: of Churches, as chapels and religious centers dotted numerous street corners.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: The people of Adelaide were known to be notoriously reverent
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: in worship, but when murders began to stain their city
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: with blood, Adelaide took on a new nickname, the City
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: of corpses. Crimelibrary dot Org says the following about how
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the city came to be synonymous with death. Per capita,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: Adelaide and its environs have recorded more of Australia's most
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: notorious crimes than any other Australian capital city, and the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: annals of Australia's most horrific crimes laid back Adelaide's sinister
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: past and present makes other cities look like Camelot in
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: a city with many lives lost at the hands of
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: a killer. However, one case stands out especially to me
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: above the rest, the Family Murders. The family murders began
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: with the discovery of a body, but soon turned into
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: a dark tidal wave with many deaths and many criminals
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: kept safe through forced orders of silence and their own status.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: This whole thing started on the bank of South Para
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Reservoir below the Old Bridge on June twenty fourth, nineteen
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: seventy nine. Weirdly enough, that's Courtney and my wife's birthday,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: and that's the day that Chris Benois the wrestler murdered
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: his family. And we just recorded my part of that
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: podcast this morning, so that's really strange June twenty fourth.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: But now we get to the first victim. The early
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: and mid seventies saw Adelaide as no more or less
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: subject to major crime than other Australian cities, but as
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: the eighties approached things started to pick up. South Australia
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: was still frightened after the discovery of five female murder
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: victims near Truro when the discovery of sixteen year old
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Alan Barnes was made. Alan was an average kid from
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the city of Adelaide, known for being energetic, handsome, and
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: in his mother's words, cheeky, which means playfully rude or
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: His mother, Judy, further recalls that he was quick witted
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: and always kept people laughing. Alan worked part time refilling
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: vending machines, but police were concerned that Alan was beginning
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: to dabble in hard drugs, including Harwin. He had a
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: pending charge open against him from a young woman, but
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: the general consensus was that the act was consensual and
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: the woman he had allegedly assaulted was making an excuse
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: for her boyfriend to avoid being caught cheating. The case
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: would never go to court to find the truth. On
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: the seventeenth of June nineteen seventy nine, Alan was hitchhiking
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: home from the Cheltenham residence of Darko castel On, whom
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: he had recently befriended. It was a Sunday and the
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: two of them had planned to hitchhike to Alan's home
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: in Salisbury. Both cities were smaller suburbs of Adelaide, but
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: quite far apart. Darko's brother dropped off Alan and Darko
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: at the corner of Grand Junction Road and Addison Road.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Darko would soon return home, but a witness would see
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Alan except a ride and get into a white holed
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: in h Q Sinan near the corner of Grand Junction
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Road and Reduction Road. The van allegedly carried three or
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: four other people, and after he climbs into the van,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Allen's never seen alive. Again. The next day, Monday, the
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: eighteenth Allan's mother, Judy, calls the police to report her
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: son as missing. Nothing comes from the police investigation into
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Alan's disappearance until exactly a week to the day after
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: he vanished. On June twenty fourth, nineteen seventy nine, two
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: hikers were walking on a dirt track near the South
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Para Reservoir when they made a discovery that would begin
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: this horrific saga. It was the contorted body, the dead
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: body of a young man. Judy was watching TV when
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the report came over the news a man in his
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: twenties had been found under the old bridge at South
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Para Reservoir. She was so certain that it was Alan
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: that she called the police once again and told them
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: it wasn't a man in his twenties, but a sixteen
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: year old kid, and it was her son. She told
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: them to look on the back of his watch for
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: an engraving that proved it was the watch given to
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Alan as a Christmas gift. The police came to see
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: her soon afterwards, when Judy and her husband followed them
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: to the police station. Judy's husband and their doctor went
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: down to the morgue and confirmed the horrible truth. The
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: corpse indeed belonged to Alan Barnes. The post mortem autopsy
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: brings further horrible news, however, which showed that Alan Barnes
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: had faced absolutely unimaginable pain before his life was ended.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: He had been sadistically tortured, held in an unknown location
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: for five days, and then brutally murdered. Allan had been tortured, beaten,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: and ate, the ripped, and died from blood loss due
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: to massive an injuries, likely caused by the force insertion
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: of a large blunt object with a tapered end, such
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: as a bottle. Allan had noctec in a system, a
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: powerful sedative and hypnotic used before surgeries to calm patients.
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Mixed with this sedative was alcohol. The police had no
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: leads or evidence of what had happened, but with the
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: results of the autopsy, they put together a scenario that
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: they believed to be accurate. Alan was picked up on
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: the corner of Production Road in Grand Junction. He had
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: been offered an alcoholic which had been laced with these sedatives.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Alan then lost consciousness and woke up in an unknown location,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: naked and confused by the sedative alcohol mixture. The police
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: believed Alan was unable to move, and during the five
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: days of his captivity, he was beaten and sadly assaulted
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: by an unknown number of people. After the disturbing abuse
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: which led to this massive blood loss, Alan succumbed to
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: his injuries. When it was found that he had died.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Alan was then cleaned and redressed in different clothing than
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: what he was wearing when he was abducted. The police
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: stated that Alan had most likely died the Friday before
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: his discovery, and then was disposed of on Saturday the
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: twenty third at the South Para Reservoir. He had died
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: no more than forty eight hours before he was found.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: The police immediately launched an investigation. Many unconfirmed sightings of
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: Alan came into the station, but only a few were
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: considered credible. The investigation was stifled even though they offered
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: a reward for information and received a few tips. But
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: they didn't have much time to focus solely on Alan
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: because just two months after his body was found, more
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: human remains would turn up. The second victim, a pair
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: of fishermen were fishing near Mutton Cove on the shore
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: of the Port Adelaide River on August twenty eighth, nineteen
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: seventy nine. The wharf they had chosen to fish at
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: was remote and disused, a place people didn't often visit.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: The two fishermen noticed something snagged on some rocks floating
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: just above the water. There was a pair of two
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: garbage bags. Upon closer inspection, they saw that it wasn't
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: just trash dumped in the river. It was the mutilated
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: parts of a human body. The heel of a man's
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: foot was sticking out of the ripped garbage bag. Detectives
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: were immediately called to the scene to begin an investigation,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: and it wasn't long before the victim was identified as
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: Neil Frederick Muir, who had gone missing two days prior.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Neil's body, like Allen's, had been severely mangled. He had
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: been cut into four sections just above the knee, immediately
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: above the hips, and at the neck. His fingers had
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: been cut off. The areas where his tattoos had been
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: were skinned from his body, and his gentiles had been
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: severely mutilated by being sliced apart into multiple sections. A
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: tail was removed from his body, the head of his
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: piece had been cut off, and the appendage had been
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: sliced down the center Neil's head had also been attached
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: to the torso with a rope that went through the
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: mouth and neck. His organs were not found with the body,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: and to this day they've never been located, and their
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: place was a bag wrapped tightly containing the tattooed flesh
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: that had been skinned off, as well as his fingers.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Also stuffed into his chest in abdominal cavity were his
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: lower legs. His arms were also placed within his hollow torso.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: It was as if the man's body had been turned
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: into some kind of gruesome suitcase by the killer. It
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: was so disturbing that even the police and detectives were
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: horrified by the scene. Bags containing the body parts were
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: taken away for further examination, and it's here where the
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Adelaide police realized that the evidence found in Neil Mure's
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: case shockingly resembled the horrors inflicted on Allan. At first,
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: it was theorized that Neil was killed for failing to
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: pay drug debts. Sadly, gruesome deaths were commonly associated with
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: those who doved too deeply into the underworld of illicit substances.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Neil also had drugs and alcohol in his system at
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: the time of his death, and he too had died
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: from massive blood loss due to an injury inflicted by
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: a large tapered object. The two bodies had been dumped
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: in or close to water, and both were last seen
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: on a Sunday. So who was the man in the
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: garbage bags? Neil Muir was a transient who wandered Adelaide
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: and was suspected of being a predude. He was known
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: to the police as a heroin user and had disappeared
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: on the twenty seventh of August nineteen seventy nine. Neil
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: was known around common Adelaide night spots such as the
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: hotels in Hinley Street, the Duke of York Hotel and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: the Buckingham Arms Hotel. The police believe that, like Alan,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Neil had been drugged, tortured and set the assaulted, with
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: the injuries sustained leading to his death. But unlike Alan,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Neil had been dismembered, skinned in places, and then had
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: his arms, legs, appendages and skin stuffed inside of his
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: hollowed out Torso the dismemberment of Neil was surgical in
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: nature and had to have been done by someone with
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: intense surgical knowledge. In other words, this wasn't like someone
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: just took a hacksaw and cut this guy's body apart.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: These were clean, precise cuts that when investigators looked at them,
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: they could tell we're done by someone who was trained
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: with surgical skills. This revelation, on top of Alan's death,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: rocked Adelaide at its foundation. People began to fear who
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: was next. It was no longer an isolated case. It
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: was a serial killing among the people of Adelaide. A
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: killer or multiple killers walked the streets, but there were
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: no clues pointing to who they were. Then a call
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: came into the police station that offered a lead. An
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: anonymous caller gave the name of a local accountant, a
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: man named Bevin von Einem. According to this anonymous caller,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Bevin was responsible for Alan's death, and if this man
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: killed Alan, he may have killed Neil as well. Now,
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: while this information may have seemed promising at first, it
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: was simply filed away with the rest of the leaves
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: that the police received. Even with hundreds of leads, the
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: case seemed to be going nowhere. It was as if
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: no one in the entire city of Adelaide had any
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: clue who had done such a horrible thing to these
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: two young men. That or someone did know, and they
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: were keeping their mouths shut. Two years past, as the
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: case gained a little traction, Alan and Neil were laid
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: to rest and the city began to forget about their deaths.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: But as with most serial killers, it won't end until
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: someone was caught. And now we get to the third victim,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: or who possibly could be the fourth. Mark Langley was
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: eighteen and nineteen eighty two attending a birthday party at
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Windsor Gardens. It was Sunday, February twenty eighth at one
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: fifteen am when Mark and his friends left the party,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: climbing into a dats In sixteen hundred and driving into
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: the city, where they parked on War Memorial Drive near
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: the river Torrens. Mark got into a fight with his friends,
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: so we got out of the car and walked along
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: the north side of the road. Mark's friends then left,
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: but would later return to try and pick him up. However,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: Mark was nowhere to be seen. They assumed he had
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: hitchhiked home and returned back to their houses. David Langley,
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Mark's father, waited for his son to come home. Later
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: that morning at nine am, when there still was no
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: sign of his kid, he began to worry, and at
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: noon he called the police. As the next few days
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: came and went, police began an intense investigation. The thoughts
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: of the other missing boys still hadn't come to the
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: front of their minds, though, and they were retreating this
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: as a one off disappearance. The police first interviewed those
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: who last saw Mark and hunted the city for any
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: sign of him, even recruiting divers to search the River Torrents.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Yet no one could find any trace of where he
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: had been, but his family still hoped for the best.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: As days went by with no news, they hoped he
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: was simply injured, lost, but most importantly, still alive. But
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: these hopes were shattered nine days later when Mark's body
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: was located on the eighth of March nineteen eighty two
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: along a road in the scrubland of Summertown, the east
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: of Adelaide. Items he had been wearing when he was
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: last seen were missing from the body, such as his
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: blue shirt and silver chain necklace. There were no bloodstains
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: on his clothes, In fact, they were clean. He bore
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: no visible injuries, and yet Mark was dead. The police
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: contacted Mark's father and gave him the news David's son
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be coming home, and after Mark's body was taken
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: in for post mortem, it was discovered that he too
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: had drugs in his system and had died from a
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: mass le an wound and blood loss. But there was
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: something about Mark's corpse that was different than the others.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: It appeared that the killer had performed some kind of
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: a crude surgery, unlike the mutilation done to Nil. There
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: had been a vertical cut into his abdomen from the
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: navel to the area of his pubic hair, which had
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: been stitched up. The hair in the area had been
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: shaved as if he had been at a hospital, and
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: when Mark was reopened, it was found that sections of
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: his small bowel were missing. The police theory that the
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: murderer had to open the bowels to retrieve damning evidence
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: from inside of his body to keep their own identity
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: a secret. They further theorized that the items in the
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: small intestine had been inserted and were partially responsible for
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: the injuries that Mark had sustained. David Langley, Mark's father,
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: was horrified. Mark had been average, a kid who like
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: cars and girls, he couldn't imagine why anyone would have
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: done something like this to him, or that a human
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: being could have done this in the first place. He
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: stated the following to Crime Investigation Australia years later, quote,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: animals would not do this. All these years, I've been
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: trying to think of what to call them. You do
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: not call them men, you do not call them people,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: You do not call them animals. What do you call them?
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: And for twenty five years I could not think of
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the name to call them, you know, to address the press.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: What do I say to them? What do we call
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: these people? They're not human? End quote? But how would
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: Mark come to have met this horrific fate? Because of
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: his relation to the other murder victims, the investigators did
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: reduced to what they could. The police concluded that after
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Mark got out of the car with his friends, he
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: had accepted a ride from a stranger trying to hitchhike home.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: When he got into the car, he had been given
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: a beer lace with a sedative. After he woke up,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: he was held captive and tortured for several days while
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: being force fed alcohol and drugs. It was at this
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: point that the police decided certainly the same killer committed
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: all three murders. Throughout the investigation, Bevin von Einem's name
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: continued to pop up, but he was only one of
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the many people of interest. It had seemed that the
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: killer had taken a hiatus between the killings. You see,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Alan and Neil were killed in nineteen seventy nine and
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: Mark Langley was killed in nineteen eighty two. Because the
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: police were so certain that these killings were related to
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: other victims, the police opened up the case files of
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: other missing boys and even missing men. One of these
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: files was on Peter Stognef, who had gone missing many
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: months prior the third victim. The police had already feared
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: the worst for many of these missing boys, but they
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: wouldn't know how right they were until June of nineteen
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: eighty two. In May of nineteen eighty two, the Adelaide
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: police were about to receive another call and another body.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: About thirty one miles north of Adelaide lay two Wells,
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: a city suburb. A local farmer had gone to the
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: area adjacent to Middle Beach Road to clear the land.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: After bulldozing bushes and box thorns, He left but came
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: back on May twentieth, to burn away the debris. The
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: debris burned for two days, and it was a month
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: later that the farmer would return to the area and
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: continue his efforts, but he would find more than he
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: bargained for. June twenty second, nineteen eighty two, saw the
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: farmer working through the ashes and leftover brush when he
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: spotted a human skull. He then returned home and the
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: next morning the police were called. Not long after, the
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: body was identified as belonging to Peter Stognef, who had
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: been missing for over ten months. Peter was a talented
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: boy with a love for music. He lived with his
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: parents in Adelaide's northern suburbs, an average happy kid in
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: the emerging eighties. It had been the twenty seventh of
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: August nineteen eight when Peter left home without his backpack,
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: planning to skip school to hang out with his cousin
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: at the Rundel Mall. Plans changed, however, when he learned
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: that his cousin couldn't make the trip. Peter went into
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: the city anyways, but between home and the mall, he
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: mysteriously vanished. When he didn't come home that evening, his
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: parents immediately reported him as missing. As soon as the
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: call came in, the police began investigating reports of his disappearance.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: One report stated he never got into the city in
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: the first place and was abducted at the Tea Tree Plaza,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: still close to his home. This tip further indicated that
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Peter had been seen with a male at the time
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: of his disappearance. Even after a plea from police for
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: more information calling the public to action, no one in
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: the public offered any tips. They had no leads, and
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Peter's name went into the files as one of Adelaide's
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: many forgotten missing boys. This was until his body was
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: discovered in the bush, burning it too wells Dental records
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: from the skeletal remains led the police to believe it
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: was indeed fourteen year old Peter, and it was confirmed
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: not long afterwards. Peter's family was in true shock. They
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: couldn't believe their young boy had been killed. He had
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: no enemies. In his mother's words, he didn't do anything
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: to anyone. His family, according to Crime Investigation Australia, still
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: doesn't believe that the remains belonged to their young son.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: His mother, for many years waited every minute for Peter
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: to walk back through the front door to their home.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: A post mortem was conducted on the remains, and evidence
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: began to mount that Peter had been the true third
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: victim of the serial killer responsible for Allan and Neil's deaths,
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: making Mark the fourth victim, not the third. The mutilation
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: done to Peter seemed to be similar to what was
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: done to Neil. His mac had been cut through with
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: a saw and his legs had been cut through at
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: the knees as well. Peter, just like Neil, had been
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: cut into pieces. After the discovery of Peter, the investigation
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: went into overdrive. After four victims, there was more than
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: enough reason to believe the killer would keep going until
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: they were caught. The public was highly anxious knowing that
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: someone in their city was hunting their sons, but time
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: began to pass and the police were no closer to
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: fining the monster who had committed these crimes. In nineteen
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: eighty three, it had been many months since the last
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: body was discovered, and thoughts of the killers slowly began
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: to fade from the forefront of the public's minds. It
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: seemed as though, against all reason, the killer had stopped,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: at least for now, But then in July, the murders
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: took headlines by storm once again. The fifth victim, Richard Calvin,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: was fifteen years old in June of nineteen eighty three.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: He had a passion for sports, was considered good looking,
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: and had a steady girlfriend. He lived with his parents,
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Betty and Rob, in one of Adelaide's fashionable northern neighborhoods.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Richard's father was a popular presenter on the Channel nine
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: news and many knew of him and his family, so
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: this was a pretty famous family. Richard's dad was on
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: TV almost every single day talking to Adelaide from the studio,
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: so people knew Richard. They knew Richard's family, and this
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: is definitely going to be a turning point here. It
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: was the fifth of June, a Sunday, when this normal
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: family was met with a tragic event. Had gone to
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: the park with a friend to play football. The clothing
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: he was wearing, jeans, sneakers and a Channel nine T
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: shirt were average. One article stands out, however, as a joke,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: Richard had taken the studded collar from his family dog
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: and was wearing it around his neck, so he had
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: a very distinctive article or item of clothing on as
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: the sky that evening began to grow dark. Richard and
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: his friend began walking home and stopped at O'Connell Street's
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: bus stop. This is where the two boys parted ways
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: and where the end begins for Richard Kelvin. It was
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: only a bit over one thousand feet between Richard's home
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: on Ward Street and the area where the two boys
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: parted ways, and this is where Richard vanished, never to
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: be seen alive again. A thousand feet from his home,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: he vanishes into thin air, and when Richard did come
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: home that evening, his parents immediately called the police to
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: report him missing. The police knew it was serious, as
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: they were called the deaths of the other four male victims,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: and began knocking on doors around the neighborhood to see
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: if anyone had information that could help them find Richard alive.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: The detectives spoke with the parents, Rob and Betty, but
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: the most valuable information came from a nearby security guard.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: The guards stated that around the time of the disappearance,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: about six fifteen pm, he heard cries for help and
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: car door slamming. However, more information came than that there
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: were multiple raised voices, meaning more than one person had
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: been involved in Richard's kidnapping. The car that Richard had
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: been abducted in was noted to have a loud exhaust,
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: but the car wasn't able to be identified. Still, the
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: police had more information in this disappearance than in any
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: of the other cases. The other neighbors corroborated the story
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: further that the men's voices and the voice of a
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: woman were heard shouting as Richard Calvin was abducted. Finally,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: the stories of the young men of Adelaide began to
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: make larger news. Newscasters were important and prominent people in
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: their communities back then, and for the son of a
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: newscaster to be stolen was seemingly more worthy of spreading
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: the word. Floods of tips and theories on Richard's disappearance
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: flooded into the police station. It was already considered that
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: Richard had fallen prey to the murderer of Alan, Neil
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Mark and p and everyone wanted to find him before
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: the worst could take place. People walk the streets, searching everywhere,
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: and even visited fortune tellers to try and get a
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: clue of what had happened to one of the most
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: prominent sons in Adelaide, but weeks pass and Detective's fear
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: for the worst for Richard. The police are stretched thin,
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: investigating every lead available, yet nothing comes of their work
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: for several weeks when the worst is confirmed. The Holmes family,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: led by their father Trevor, are searching for moss covered
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: rocks for a garden in Mount Crawford, north of the
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: city of Adelaide in the July winter. That didn't have
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: much luck finding rocks, but they did have luck in
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: finding the boy all of Adelaide had been searching for.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Trevor had wandered into the scrub lands as he looked
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: for the rocks and noticed some kangaroo bones lying in
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: the dirt. As he bends down to inspect them, he
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: sees a person lying on the ground not far away.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: He at first believed that the person was injured, so
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: he stepped closer. He called out to the injured person
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: lying on the ground, asking if they were okay, But
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: as he pulls back the bushes, he notices his head,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: the hair is greasy and the skin is model. He
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: pulls the bushes away further as he tries to call
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: out again and sees the Channel nine shirt. It was
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: Richard Kelvin and he was dead. Trevor immediately calls the
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: police and they arrived to inspect the body. Richard was
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: wearing the same clothing that he had on when he
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: was vanished, and that dog collar was still around his neck.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: A crime scene was then established and the police began
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: searching for more evidence. The body of Richard Kelvin was
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: lying near a dirt airstrip at Kerzbrook, lying in a
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: fetal position. The police determined that the body had been
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: there for at least two weeks. The body was then
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: taken away and an autopsy was performed. Richard had died
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: in the same manner as the rest of the victims,
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: yet Richard was held alive for at least five weeks.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: The toxicology screen noted the drugs Max, which had been
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: in the system of some of the other victims and
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: which had been present in the previous bodies as well.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Max is another sedative like None, but Max was particularly
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: popular in the disco scene of the day. In other words,
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: it was a party drug. There were traces of four
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: different drugs in Richard's system, but these were not the
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: cause of death. Like the other men, Richard had been
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: killed by the forced insertion of a large, blunt, tapered
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: object like a bottle. While the drugs force fed to
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: the fifteen year old were stupefying, they would not have
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: eliminated the pain that he felt in his final hours,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: not for Richard, and not for any of the other victims.
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: After Richard had succumbed to his ordeal, his body was
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: washed clean of fingerprints and other evidence, dressed back in
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: his own clothes, and dumped in the bush lands outside
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: of Adelaide. No one wanted to believe these horrific crimes
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: had been committed in their city. It was monstrous, and
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: yet it was in Adelaide. Then, after Richard Calvin has
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: found and an autopsy has performed, the newspapers began to
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: speculate on the killer at last. Throughout the investigation, little
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: pieces of evidence had been coming in. Journalists and police
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: had been working to piece the clues together, and they
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: finally had a few concrete ideas. The murder of the
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: five Adelaide victims hadn't been committed by one serial kit killer,
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: but rather a group of them. The group, furthermore, was
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: not simply a gathering of deranged sadists hiding behind mild
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: mannered lives. They were high profile officials, businessmen, and even judges,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: all of whom believed they were beyond the law. After
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: this point, the murderers came to be known as the
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Family after a detective referred to the group as one big,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: happy family. The name stuck used as a hook by
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: the media and since then has haunted the people of
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Adelaide the investigation. One of these suspects that first came
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: to be synonymous with the family was the man whose
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: name continued to pop up in the investigation numerous times.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: Bevin Spencer von einem In, associate of Bevin's, came to
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: police early in the investigation. He was nicknamed mister B,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: and his true name has never been revealed even to
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: this day. And what mister B had to say was shocking.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: This man, a mild mannered accountant during the day, was
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: actually a killer, and with the help of his associates,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: he had murdered the five boys and assaulted many more.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: This tip led to a long investigation on von Einum,
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: where it was found that he had been implicated in
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: several assaults in the area, but he was never criminally
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: charged with any von Einem was a man with a
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: troubled past himself. He grew up poor in factual abuse
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: as a child, and at the time of the investigation
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: he had been living with his mother in the northern
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: suburb of Paradise, and he was said to be polite.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: People who had interacted with him had good things to say.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: But this cover would soon be blown. You see, the
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: police using a database that can track what prescriptions are
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: given and to whom, found that von Einem headed prescription
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: for Max, the prescription sedative common in the disco scene,
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: and the same drug found in several of the boys's bodies.
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: The police then took von Einem to the police station
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: where they would conduct their questioning. When Einem was interviewed,
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: he showed a certain suspicious demeanor, which to the police
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: set him high on their suspect list. The strangest part
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: of the interview with von Einum, according to police, is
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: that when he was asked how he would commit a murder,
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: he replied that he wouldn't because it was quote unethical
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: to kill. He said that he used the man to
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: help him sleep, but he used no other drugs. When
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: the police brought out a bottle of nech Item became
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: incredibly nervous. He said he had the flu when Calvin
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: was kidnapped, but consented the DNA collection and a search
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: of his home. Afterward, Von Einem fled the country for
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: a vacation to the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: The police would go on to search his home and
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: in his closet they found a hidden ledge where they
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: found valiant mates and all of which were prescribed to him.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: These drugs had all been found in Richard Kelvin's toxicology report.
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: After this discovery, they found fibers from Bevin's bedroom that
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: had also been present on the young boy. Von Einem
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: liked to dye his hair jet black. He had a
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: regular hairdresser he visited, and one of his black hairs
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: was found on the corpse of Richard Calvin. Now the
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: police remembered the man who had given the tip about
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: Von Einem in the first place, mister B. Using the
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: information that mister B had given them, they tracked him
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: down and asked for everything he knew. Mister B claimed
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: that he was present for the rips of the young
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: men and boys, but never present for their murders, though
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: he did know that Bevin had committed them. He told
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: the police that von Einem would often cruise around in
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: his car looking to pick up young men, but that
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: he didn't cruise alone. Von Einem would lure the young
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: boys and young men into his car, saying they were
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: headed to a party where they would be alcohol in girls.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Mister B said that usually Von Einen would have other
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: people in the car with him, all co conspirators to
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: make the story about this party more believable. However, once
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: in the car, the victims would be given a beer
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: laced with drugs, causing them to lose consciousness. After they
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: would be taken to one of several locations to be
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: sulted and sometimes murdered. And mister B wasn't the only
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: one who had said this before another young man had
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: come forward with a similar story. This man said he
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: had been picked up in a car driven by a man, drugged,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: taken to a house, and had been sulted by multiple men.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: Mister B also gave many names of people who were
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: associated with von Einem, and even though the police questioned them,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: there wasn't enough evidence to charge anyone with a crime.
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: But von Einem didn't get off so easily due to
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: the evidence at hand. He was arrested and tried for
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: the murder of Richard Kelvin on November third, nineteen eighty three.
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: When he returned to the country. On February twentieth, nineteen
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: eighty four, the committal hearing began in order to decide
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: if there was enough evidence to take the case to court.
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Von Einem had originally said that he was sick with
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: the flu on the night of the abduction, but faced
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: with mounting evidence, he admitted that the boy had been
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: with him. He stated that Richard and he had been
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: in contact on the fifth of June nineteen eighty three,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: and that he had been driving down O'Connell Street, where
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: Richard had been walking. Von Aiinam said he was merely
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: there to park and then find a place to get
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: fish and chips for dinner. He stated that while trying
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: to find parking on a side street, he had almost
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: run over Richard, who was jogging straight at the car.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: The two had begun to talk, and Ininem stated to
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: the court that he believed Richard had bisexual tendencies, and
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: they spoke about Richard's problems at school. According to Einem,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Kelvin willingly got into the car, contradicting the raised voices
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: and cries for help that multiple witnesses had hurt. They
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: then drove to von Ainam's home, and Bevin stated that
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: the two had sat on his bed, and this way
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: he was attempting to explain the bedfibers on Richard's clothing.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: According to von Einem, the two satin played the golden
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: harp that Item kept in his room. The police did
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: see this harp when they seized Item's drug supply, but
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: this didn't seem to explain the fibers from Item's cardigan.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: To answer that, Item said he had hugged Richard to
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: console him after the boy had become upset talking about
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: the bullying he had been experiencing at school. Item said
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: that Richard was there for two hours and afterward he
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: had dropped him off at Royal Adelaide Hospital, giving him
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: twenty dollars for some cab fare. The story seemed incredibly detailed,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: but it didn't fit Itam had contradicted his earlier statement
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: about being sick with the flu, and the amount of
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: fibers on Kelvin's body was too great for him to
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: have only been there for two hours. The court just
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: didn't buy it. The judge, Magistrate Nick Manos, ordered Einem
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: to stand trial for his crimes on the twenty fifth
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: of May nineteen eighty four. On October fifteenth of the
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: same year, Von Eidem faced a jury of twelve of
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: his peers and pled not guilty. He was represented by
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: Barry Jennings and Helena Jasinski, who had been his solicitor
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: since the murder investigation began. Solicitor is what they call
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: an attorney in other countries other than America. On November fifth,
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: nineteen eighty four, after mountains of evidence against him was
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: admitted into court, Von Eidem was found guilty of the
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: murder of Richard Calvin, which automatically sentenced him to life
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: in prison. He had a non parole period of twenty
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: four years. Unlikely he'll never be released. Yet he wasn't
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: charged with any of the other killings. There were many
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: similarities between the murder of Richard Calvin and the murders
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: of the other victims, yet Item didn't stand accused of
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: any of them. This wouldn't be allowed to stand for long.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: The murders were always considered to be committed by the
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: same person, and the police were certain of this fact.
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: You see, the deaths of Alan Barnes and Mark Langley
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: were especially similar, and so four years after the murder conviction,
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: an inquest was ordered into the deaths of the other
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: four young men in nineteen eighty eight. And now let's
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: talk about the detectives and take a closer look. So
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: because of the nature of the crimes committed against the victims,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: especially the anal injuries, the crime had always been considered
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: to be still in nature. The police throughout the investigation
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: had suspected that Bevin was responsible for the deaths of
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: all five of the victims, and using the similarity between
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: the cases, they brought Bevin up on charges of killing
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: both Alan Barnes and Mark Langley, but they couldn't yet
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: make the killings of Neil and peterstick. In the May
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: of nineteen ninety, Bevin was ordered to stand trial for
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: two more murders. Bevin was tried by Justice Calvin Duggan
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: that same year. However, he found a similarity evidence, as
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: it was called, was inadmissible. He couldn't be charged simply
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: because the cases were so similar. They attempted to use
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: the evidence supplied by mister B. Yet the Justice ruled
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: that the defense could question mister B on his testimony
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: as well. This turned out to be a huge blow
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: for the defense, as the South Australia Attorney General advised
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: that the prosecution dropped the charges for Mark Langley's murder.
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Mister B's story apparently couldn't stand up to scrutiny. He
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: had given the wrong date for the Alan Barnes kidnapping
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: and therefore his testimony was thrown out, despite the rest
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: of his story being incredibly accurate and detailed that one
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: slip caused the entire case to crumble. Then, shortly afterwards,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: the prosecution faced further issues finding associates of von Ainam
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: who would corroborate the evidence against him, now that mister
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: B was considered an unreliable witness. After more advice from
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: the South Australia Attorney General, the prosecution entered a noel
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: prosecute or abandonment for the murder charge of Alan Barnes.
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: It appeared that powerful people didn't want the matter looked
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: further into. Alan, Mark, Neil, Peter and Richard had all
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: died under very similar circumstances. Yet after roadblocks and only
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: one willing witness. The charges began to fall apart left
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: and right. Bevan von Einem was allowed to escape with
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: only one murder conviction, but it was clear that he
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: had a hand in every murder. Now, mister B, that
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: unnamed witness had stated that Bevin had his eye on
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: Allen for some time and that he had been in
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: the car with Bevin when he coaxed Alan into his
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: vehicle with promises of going to a party. He further
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: stated that he had watched Bevin kidnap, drug and rip
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: several young men. But a whole in his story had
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: been found by the defense, all amounting to a change
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: date in his testimony, and Bevin was allowed to go
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: free from the charges. But Bevin wasn't the only killer
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: who didn't face justice. Mister B implicated others in his
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: testimony who were also let free, such as mister R
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: otherwise known as the Businessman. So keep in mind these
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: young men we've talked about, you know, we're fifteen seventeen,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: younger than that. So these men are running a pedophile ring,
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: a murderous pedophile ring. And it's clear at this point
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: that the government is putting their hand in here and saying,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: don't look into this. They're shutting down these charges. I mean,
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: what's the reasoning. This guy is providing incredibly detailed testimony
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: that could actually bust this thing wide open, and yet
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: he gets a date wrong, which is very easy to do.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: Sometimes I forget people's birthdays, my family member's birthdays. It's
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: very easy to get confused dates. I'm sure you guys know.
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: And with this one confused date, the whole case crumbles.
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: Then you got the people inserting themselves, top cops in
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: the state coming in and saying, drop these charges. And
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: now we get into Bevin and the businessman. Bevin had
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: a close relationship with a man known only as the Businessman.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: Because of suppression orders conveniently placed on the case, many
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: of the names of the suspects have never been made public.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: This includes mister B and this accused killer rapist, the businessman.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: So Bevin attended many parties at the house owned by
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: the businessman, and often he was accompanied by non consenting
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: young males miners, who were usually either semi conscious or
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: not conscious at all. The group that Bevin participated in
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: at the businessman's home had allegedly been going on for
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: many years since nineteen seventy one after a failed abduction
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: attempt on a young teenage boy. The boy had escaped
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: and reported the incident to local police, and it became
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: one of the many assault cases opened against Bevin that
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: seemed to go nowhere. As the years going on, Bevin
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: apparently turned to even darker roots, murdering his victims and
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: dumping the bodies Mister b That witness had implicated the
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: businessmen and many other co conspirators, and yet none of
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: them ever fixed a single criminal charge or were even investigated.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: They were interviewed, however, and their positions offer insight as
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: to why they escaped freely. Among the crowd of suspects
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: were seven legal professionals, two politicians that a lot of
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: people would have known if their names had been released,
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: a doctor, and a well known drug dealer. The businessman.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: Two more doctors and a hairdresser were also implicated and interviewed,
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: Yet no one on this massive list was ever charged.
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: Doctor Peter Milhouse one of the doctors who's known to
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: be implicated is a man named doctor Peter Millhouse. He
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: was a gay man in Adelaide who often prayed on
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: young men allegedly, doctor Millhouse paid young Maile products with
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: drugs in exchange for several favors. Doctor Peter Millhouse had
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: allegedly been in a cecil relationship with Neil Muhir before
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: his death. However, this relationlationship was more based on mutual
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: advantage than attraction. As Milhouse was a doctor, he could
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: get prescription drugs, including methadone for his quote unquote lover.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: You see, Neil was a addict and often used methadone
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: to make the come down of heroin an easier experience.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Doctor Milhouse allegedly provided many drugs for Neil, but as
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: his addiction worsened, Milhouse became tired of the young man
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: he was taking advantage of. On the relationship deteriorated. Milhouse
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: was said to be the last person confirmed to be
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: in Neil's company before his disappearance, and so he became
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: a suspect in his death. But more than that, the
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: way that Neil's body was discovered left many clues. The
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: body had been mutilated, certainly, but it had been done
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: by someone with surgical skills and anatomical knowledge. The body
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: had been cut apart in ways that spoke to a
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: man with high education and practice with surgical tools. Because
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: of these facts, doctor Milhouse was brought up on charges
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: of committing the murder. However, due to a lack of evidence,
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: he was acquitted of the crime. Doctor Milhouse had insisted
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: that he wasn't of coping with even the smallest surgery,
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: and much of the evidence against him was deemed speculative,
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: but Adelaide to this day is unconvinced. When Peter Milhouse
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: died in twenty fifteen, the Sydney Morning Herald posted an
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: online obituary. Among the kind messages left by family and friends,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: two comments stand out, reading hope he suffered just like
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: his victims did in the family murders. In Adelaide, he
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: is now in hell and the next in all caps murderer. Obviously,
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: Adelaide did not all have love for the doctor. Neither
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: did they have love for Von Einem. Doctor Milhouse shared
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: another rather large similarity with the convicted killer, drug dealing.
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: At the time of Neil's death. He was also not
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: only associated with Milhouse the doctor, but he was associated
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: with Von Einem as well, through a woman named Sarah
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: Novak Bevan. Von Einem was well known for being able
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: to get drugs, and with this tactic, he recruited many
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: participants for his schemes. Some of these names that come
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: up in these schemes are Sarah Novak, Lewis Turder, Prue Furman,
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: and a man known only as PJ. You see, Bevin
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: von Einem recruited many people to help him, but the
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: most common names brought up are the names of drag
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: queens and transgender women whom he used to lure men
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: into his car before they could be drugged and taken
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: to a secondary location where the torture would begin. Sarah
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: Novak had known Bevin von Einem since she was fifteen
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: years old and knew both him and victim Neil Muir.
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: Bevin allegedly had a secile relationship with Neil four years
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: before his murder. Keep in mind he was a teenager.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: This would make Bevin a pedophile, and the two had
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: stayed close, most likely because Bevin could procure drugs to
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: fuel Neil's addiction. Sarah benefited from Bevin in a similar way.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: She was a mad Fax addict. One of the very
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: prescription drugs that was recovered from Bevin's closet Using this tool,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: Bevin manipulated Sarah into luring young men for him to
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: fulfill his sick desires. And Sarah wasn't alone in this act.
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: She was joined by Prue Furman, another transgender woman who
• 42:55
  Speaker 1: was used by Einem to lure young men and boys.
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Prue was not manipulated through drugs, however, she actually took
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: part in the rooms. Another victim came forward in between
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: the murders of Mark Langley and Richard Kelvin to prove
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: this fact. You see, Bevin had used the same tactic
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: as with the other victims, luring in a sixteen year
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: old named George with the promise of drugs, girls and partying.
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: George was taken to the secondary location and Prue read
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: the boy before he blacked out. Bevin the boy as well,
• 43:24
  Speaker 1: but allowed him to go free when he awoke. The
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: boy reported to the police and Prue was brought up
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: on charges. However, the case fell through, as like every
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: other case in the story. According to the justice system,
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: it couldn't be proven that the set wasn't consensual, nor
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: that Prue didn't know George was underage. Now that's insane.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: Think about that. So a pedophile can't be held accountable
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: for raping a young victim because apparently you can't prove
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: that there was not consensual and you can't prove that
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: the pedophile didn't know that the kid was underage. I'd
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: like to see that stand up in court, not only
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: here in America, but just anywhere in the world. Today,
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: I feel like we've gone far beyond that mentality. Another
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: name in this group is PJ, who was allegedly a
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: victim of the group at first who later became their friend.
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: PJ wasn't transgender, but dressed as a woman to help
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: Bevin lure young men. There are allegedly more women who
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: helped von Einum, as well as drag queens, but one
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: name became especially important in later years. Lewis Turder happened
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: to be the man who owned the secondary location, a
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: house where he lived with Prufe Furman and other transgender women.
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: Lewis turt was a teenager when he met Bevin von
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: Einum in the sixties, long before second contact between two
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: men was legal in the state. However, this wasn't a
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: bond based on mutual understanding. It was a bond shared
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: in mutual monstrosity, as both found the act of drugging
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: and ripping young boys to be appealing. As time passed,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: Bevin began to use Lewis Turt's residence as a place
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: to bring his victims, under the agreement that after Bevin
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: had finished them, Lewis would have his term and could
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: many times as he liked. Lewis was one of the
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: drag queens that Einem used to lure young men, going
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: by the name of Lena when he was in character.
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: According to mister b both he and the businessman would
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: accompany Bevin to the residents to enact their crimes against
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: the boys of Adelaide, but later interviews didn't see Lewis,
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: the property owner, being so honest. He admitted that he
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: had sent to the victims, but only two of them.
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: When asked in an interview what had happened to the
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: boys that Bevin would bring to his shared home, he stated,
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: all I know. They came. He dropped them off at
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: our place. He went home. We let them sleep it off.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: They left in the morning, That's what he said. The
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: interview was conducted for the Foxtel podcast and television show
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: Frozen Lies. It aims to get the word out about
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: the murders as well as lift the suppression orders on
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: many of the names involved in the case. One of
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: these names which had been formally suppressed was Prue Furman.
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: Lewis Turner was reluctant to divulge all he knew. Perhaps
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: he believed he would be in danger if he revealed
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: his secrets, but secrets would eventually come out many years
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: after them took place. In all, this group has been
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: suspected of kidnapping, drugging, and rapping over one hundred and
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: fifty young men and boys. It cannot be said how
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: many truly fell victim to von Einem, nor can it
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: be said how many more fell victim to the larger
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: collection of the family. The family's members, as I said before,
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: went far beyond Bevin von Ainam and his small group.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: This group included many high profile people who over the
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: years have managed to avoid justice even after committing serious crimes.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: A few of these high profile members who are all
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: but confirmed are doctor Stephen Woodards and Robert Cowan, magistrate
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: or judge Richard Brown, as well as businessmen and boxing
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: promoter Don Storren. In March of two thousand and eight,
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: a cold case review was opened on the family murders case.
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: The reward for information over the years had gradually increased
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: in amount, with the peak of a reward amount being
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: over a million dollars. The reward also carried an immunity
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: offer for accomplices depending on how involved they were in
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: the crimes. One of the suspects that the police implicated
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: was doctor Stephen George Woodards. He specialized in physiotherapy, yet
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: the police believed that he may have been responsible for
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: this surgery performed on Mark Langley. He had a reputation
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: for helping drunk young men get home from bars, but
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: instead of truly helping them, he drugged them and ripped
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: them as if to prove this. In twenty eleven, Woodard's
• 47:22
  Speaker 1: was charged with five counts of wraith, yet none of
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: these charges stuck and he was allowed to walk free.
• 47:28
  Speaker 1: At the time of the murders, he was the lover
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: of a magistrate in the city, Richard Dutton Brown Brown,
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: a magistrate or a judge, was also implicated in the
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: family murders. He was allegedly close to one of Einem's
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: social circles, one of these pedophile rip murder circles that
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: included the businessman von Einem's hairdresser and others. Magistrate Brown
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: was accused of ripping two thousand and six, but the
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: charges conveniently were once again dropped, just like every other
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: damn charge in this story. It's infuriating Magistrate Brown and
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: the doctor Woodard's had I've both been investigated for sale
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: offenses against children between nineteen seventy seven and nineteen eighty one,
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: then investigated by Adelaide's a major crimes unit for having
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: six with underage products in nineteen eighty nine, but those
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: investigations had also gone nowhere. So you got these men
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: that are charged in the two thousands, the twenty tens
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: with raping young men. Then you have evidence that they
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: were investigated in the nineteen seventies the nineteen eighties for
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: having with young boys and nothing came out of it.
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: I mean, what the fuck is going on here? The
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: boxing promoter and the named businessman is Don Storren, outed
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: as a suspect in two thousand and eight after the
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: cold case review was opened. This businessman differs from the
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: one who remains unnamed due to suppression orders which have
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: mostly yet to be lifted so store. In this boxing
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: promoter's involvement is unclear, yet he was jailed in two
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: thousand and six for sale offenses against boys aged thirteen
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: to fifteen. It's like so many of these cases, these
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: men are charged with ripping children and being a part
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: of this robotic machine of RiPP and murder and in
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: this case, torture mutilation. They might have been filming all
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: this and selling it or passing it around their sick
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: little circle, and they all say, oh, I had nothing
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: to do with it, and yet all the circumstantial evidence
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: shows they probably did do it. Like those last two
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: guys we talked about being accused of rapping minors multiple times.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: Then you have this guy who was also accused of
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: being involved in the family, never officially connected. Yet in
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: two thousand and six, years, decades after the murders, he
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: has found guilty of rip children. I think they should
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: be looked at a little more seriously. The other doctor
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: that was implicated in von Einem's crimes was doctor Robert Cowen,
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: who was known in the gay community of Adelaide for
• 49:41
  Speaker 1: dressing frequently as a woman. Doctor Robert Cowen or Bob Cowen,
• 49:45
  Speaker 1: was one of the main sources of von Einem's sedative prescriptions,
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: and out of the one hundred and thirty five prescriptions
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: that von Einem had received, one hundred and twelve of
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: them had came from Bob Cowen. Bob also supplied medical
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: certificates when von Einem made to work. The police believed
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: that Cowen and Einem had a relationship beyond that of
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: a doctor and patient. All the suspects involved were brought
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: in for DNA testing before the cold case review that
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: began in two thousand and eight, but none of these
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: key suspects faced any charges. So let's say that doctor supplied, well,
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: he did. He supplied von Einem with these drugs. Now,
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: let's say von Einem drugged all of his victims with
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: these prescriptions, which he did. The doctor should be charged,
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: just like mac Miller's drug dealer was charged, Michael Jackson's
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: doctor was charged. This guy should be charged, and he
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: was probably in on it. And keep in mind, all
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: this stuff came out about all these men, this evidence
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: that these men had been investigated in the past for
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: pedophile crimes, that they were all in documents and through
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: witnesses named as suspects, and nothing ever happened. And now
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: we get into some later revelations, So it seems to
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: the average viewer as if purposeful roadblocks or perhaps blinders,
• 50:57
  Speaker 1: have been put on the investigation into these committed by
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: suspected family members. But in twenty fifteen, the diaries of
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: yet another Ininem associate promised a new lead. Trevor Peters
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: moved in the same social circles as von Einem and
• 51:12
  Speaker 1: lived near two of the other accomplices, Prue Furman, that
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: transgender rapist, and Sarah Novak, the victim turned accomplice. Trevor's
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: brother was clearing out his residence after he died when
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: he discovered diaries. In these diary entries, Trevor detailed the
• 51:27
  Speaker 1: abductions and murders of the victims committed by von Einem
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: and his other associates. He also implicated doctor Stephen Woodwards,
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: saying that he gave von Einem many of the max
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: tablets that he would go on to use and the murders.
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: He further stated in these diary entries, keep in mind
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: he wasn't trying to publish these diary entries. He wasn't
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: trying to go public with them. His family member found
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: these diaries after he died, so he wasn't seeking any
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: sort of a fame like this is just his legit
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: truth stuff that he knew. He further stated that not
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: only did Bevin von Einem rich the drugged hitchhikers he
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: would pick up, but that Sarah Novak would work these
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: hitchhikers as well. He also implicated another name, however, that
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: has always been suspected, a man named Dennis Saint Dennis
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Bevan's hairdresser who often dyed his hair black. Form. In
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: the diary, Trevor allegedly wrote the following, Both Dennis and
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: Bevin lived with the mothers and needed a place to
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: take the young men for six or trade. That's in
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: all caps and quotations, especially quote rough trade end quote.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: As Dennis had told me on the day that he
• 52:31
  Speaker 1: drove me past the unit. Dennis said that they kept
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: it secret from their families that they rented the unit
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: end quote. So that's from his diary and Trevor's basically
• 52:41
  Speaker 1: saying that Dennis the hairdresser and Bevin von einem lived
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: and had the secret unit that they rented, and this
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: is where they took the young boys for their pedophile
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: parties and parties, and that there was a trade going
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: on there, and even a rough trade. And in this
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: entry he's talking about an apartment that was shared by Dennis,
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: the hairdresser, Bevin von Einem, and possibly the businessman whose
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: identity is still hidden. The most shocking revelation he gave, however,
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: were the photos of Alan Barnes So In the early
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: part of June nineteen seventy nine, Trevor had been at
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: Saint Dennis's hair salon. While Saint Dennis the Suspect worked
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: on his hair. Bevin von Ainem came into the salon
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: and looked very happy. He looked at Dennis knowingly, and
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: they both seemed suddenly to become excited. Dennis then hurried
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: through the rest of the haircut and followed Bevin von
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: Einem through a curtain. Then a few moments later, Dennis
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: and Bevin began to giggle the words oooh, how evil, oooh,
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: it's evil. Apparently Dennis said this many times, and Trevor
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: went back to see what was so interesting, as he
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: felt kind of left out. His hairdresser had just walked
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: out on him after the haircut, and the two were
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: now giggling behind a door. It's very strange, he found
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: the two huddled over a table just behind the curtain,
• 53:57
  Speaker 1: and he saw many photographs that were laying on the
• 53:59
  Speaker 1: table round five or six pictures. In the photos, a
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: young blond man was lying on his side in the
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: front seat of a car with his legs bent towards
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: the steering wheel. He was naked and a large object
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: had been inserted into his aims. Trevor was shocked at
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: the graphic photos and when he asked Bevin who it was,
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: Bevin replied, Oh, just some hitchhiker, and as if this
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: wasn't sickening enough. Keep in mind, Trevor was a miner
• 54:24
  Speaker 1: at the time. Time passed and Dennis wasn't long for
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: the world. Dennis would soon die, and in his bed
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: at Calvary Hospital, Dennis told him that Bevin had shown
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: him numerous naked photographs of young men, many with objects
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: inserted into their ass. Trevor and his diary stated that
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: Dennis threatened him afterwards, he said that if he knew
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: what was good for him, he would keep his mouth shut.
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: Trevor also revealed much about Lewis Turd and his diaries.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: He knew more than he divulged in his interview. According
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: to the entries. In these entries, he wrote the following
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: about a conversation with Prue Furman. Quote, Lewis turd would
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: always have a back room ready for him and Bevin
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: ready to abuse scally the boys that Bevin brought there.
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: She said that Lewis Turder would always have the bed
• 55:08
  Speaker 1: made and candles ready. She said that mister r was
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: there to meet Bevin frequently. When I questioned frequently, she said, yes,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: all the time. He was there lots and lots of times.
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: End quote. In all the sickening acts of Bevin involved
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: many players. It's apparently there were rooms ready for these
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: murders mutilations to occur at all times, and theseris and
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: mutilations and murders were apparently being photographed. That's what Trevor's
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: writing about in this journal, that there's photos of these
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: young boys, child parky, photos with things stuck into their apps,
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: and these photos were being circulated from pedophile to pedophile.
• 55:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know how big the reach was on all
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: of this, but as always, when you get into these
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: power players, these power brokers, these magistrates, politicians, celebrities, people
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: that are involved in this shit, they want this shit
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: and they increasingly and watch that's darker, and to me,
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: it almost seems like all these men wanted to murder children,
• 56:05
  Speaker 1: and that's why they were doing it together. In all,
• 56:08
  Speaker 1: the sickening acts of Bevin involved so many different players,
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: so many different people. So what stopped the police from
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: learning of their activities years before? Well keep in mind
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: that Bevin von Einem is still the only man imprisoned
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: for the crimes against the Adelaide murder victims. Yet it
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: seems through Trevor's writings and mister B's testimonies that the
• 56:28
  Speaker 1: evidence should really be plentiful. Yet after so many years,
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: no more arrests have been made and no one has
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: been jailed. The ring of the family, however, has been
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: speculated to be much larger than Bevin and his close circle.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: You see. Bevin's circle already involved magistrates or judges and
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: prominent doctors in the city, but something worse was suspected
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: than these few. You see, a book named The Family
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: Murders Dissected took a look into a similar case, the
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: Body in the Freezer, where a prominent Adelaide lawyer was
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: found shot and stuffed to his own refrigeration unit. Through
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: the lawyer's connections, which included Bevin Voneina himself. The reality
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: of the pedophile and murdering in Adelaide could be much
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: worse than imagine, so Bevin von Einem wasn't alone. He
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: was said to have many co conspirators and many more
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: friends who all moved in the same circles. In the
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: seventies and eighties, social circles for gay men, such as bars, bookstores,
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: and similar hangouts were emerging in society and for the family,
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: this was not a way to express their identity with others,
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: but a way to devise and meet up with others
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: who wanted to commit horrible crimes. Bevin von Einam met
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: many of his conspirators at a small Adelaide bookshop in
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: nineteen sixty where they were importing hardcore homosexual peric magazines
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: and films from Europe. Apparently, this group was comprised of
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: two journalists, two legal officials, and a young lawyer by
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: the name of Darren Stevenson. They were average members of
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: society by day, but at night they gathered at the
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: bookshop to read magazines and books depicting the still abuse
• 57:59
  Speaker 1: of boys, or watch films portraying the act. So this
• 58:02
  Speaker 1: was a group of pedophiles that was meeting at this
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: bookstore to read through Child Point together and watch Child
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: Point Together projected on a screen. And as the group grew,
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: they began meeting at Darrence, the lawyer's home on the
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: edge of the city of Adelaide. In the mid nineteen seventies,
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: the group came to include important members of Adelaide's society,
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: and they all had mostly flown under the radar. You see,
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: until the year nineteen seventy five, and this is pretty crazy.
• 58:27
  Speaker 1: Consensual between adult males had been illegal, but the group
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: had begun to catch the eye of the local police.
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: When nineteen seventy five came, many adult men began to
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: celebrate their freedom by being more outgoing about their true
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: identity before the family. It meant finally operating on their
• 58:43
  Speaker 1: sick interests. The family began to access boys for the
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: purpose of still abuse, targeting those who were troubled or
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: caught up in the wrong side of the law. They
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: were seen as easy prey, with most being runaways or
• 58:55
  Speaker 1: wards of the state. During this time, people who were
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: part of this group began entering positions of power in
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: the judiciary system, such as a lawyer by the name
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: of Peter Liddy. Peter Liddy was appointed the youngest ever
• 59:06
  Speaker 1: magistrate or judge in South Australia in the year nineteen
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: seventy four, at the young age of twenty nine. However,
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: twenty eight years later, the same Peter Liddy, the same
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: man who broke records and was supposed to uphold and
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: fight for justice, would be arrested for the sele abuse
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: of young boys. It's widely considered that Peter Liddy obtained
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: this position in the government, that he was given this
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: high ranking, powerful position because of the influence of the family.
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: In the early months of nineteen seventy nine. You see,
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: the family was already a group of men who remained unknown,
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: protected by legal and social standing. Many of the members
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: of this group, all whom were violent, vile pedophiles, though
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: mostly unnamed, were thought to be in the high positions
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: of power within this city. People thought they were your mayors,
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: your politicians, your celebrities, your people who were on the news,
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: your familiar faces in the daylight. They were supposedly protecting
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: the city and working for the people that fight behind
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: closed doors in these houses and apartments. They were ripping
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: and murdering and sometimes mutilating young boys. Disturbingly, these powerful
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: men had easy access to boys whom they could abuse,
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 1: and Darrence Stevenson had become central to the group until
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: June fourth, nineteen seventy nine. On that day, Darrence the
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 1: lawyer was murdered. He had been shot in the back
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: of the head by a twenty two rim fire round
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: from a Ruger rifle. His death was speculated to be
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: caused by his involvement with the family. He had received
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: a phone call in fact earlier that day and was
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 1: later noted as sobbing, I want out over and over again.
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: And this murder didn't seem to be random. In fact,
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: the rifle used was Darrence's own rifle. Whoever had killed
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: him was no threat at seeing, and they had walked
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: into his office, taken the gun and shot him execution style.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 1: He seemed to have been killed by someone he knew,
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 1: someone he trusted. His body was then placed in his
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: own freezer, and after the body was discovered, many more
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: disturbing things came to light about the creditor. You see,
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: Darren before his death, would take payment for his legal
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: services using many different methods including jewelry, precious stones, drugs,
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: and most horrifically young boys. Yeah, when clients couldn't pay
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: Darren for their legal services with cash or checks or
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: money orders, you heard that correctly, he would take payment
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: in the form of raking young children. Darren's murder became
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: known under the title of the Body in the Freezer
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: and is one of the larger cases associated with the
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 1: family to this day. That is because Darrence was an
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 1: original kind of member of the family. He was shot
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 1: by somebody in the family in the back of the
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: head to protect only God knows what. Two of the
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 1: people who were questioned in the murder of Darrence were
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: David Shack, Darrence's nineteen year old long term boyfriend, which
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: obviously you can infer from the words long term means
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: that Darrence had been dating David since he was a minor,
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: and thirty three year old chiropractor Gino Gombardella. Darren Stevenson,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 1: the attorney who was murdered, had represented Goma Barbardella before
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: in court where he was being charged with offenses against
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: young male children. Gino the chiropractor had been charged three
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 1: times by nineteen sixty eight, and in nineteen seventy nine,
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 1: he was charged again with rising children. Gino was considered
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: to be a scout in the family and was often
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: tasked with procuring young men and boys for the group.
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 1: In fact, Gino Gambardella had brought David and Darrence together
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: when in nineteen seventy six Gino brought David Shack to
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 1: Darrence's home. David, through a testimony by Gino, was found
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 1: guilty of Darrence's murder and eventually sentenced to prison. Now
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 1: Geno Gambardella, on the other hand, was not further prosecuted,
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: even with the assault charges pending against him. Gino took
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 1: his children and fled to Italy in nineteen eighty, leaving
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 1: behind his wife and the family home. Because of this incident,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: the family nearly crumbled. Gino, the chiropractor, the rice of
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 1: young children, the pedophile was a key to their operation,
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: and apparently something upset Darrence the lawyer so greatly that
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: he at the time wanted to get out. It seemed
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: that he had seen something so truly monstrous, something so
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: horrible and despicable, that even he, a veteran pedophile for decades,
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 1: couldn't stomach like that's hardcore. Darrence was already pretty much
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: a founding member of this group and was a hardcore
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 1: pedophile himself who had taken part in all this child
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: preying written abduction of young boys. But Darrence had seen
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: something so truly terrible he could not stand it and
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: he wanted to get out. He was crying. But what
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: was this that he had seen? Well, rumors started that
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: Darrence had been asked to supply his much younger lover David,
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: to star in a violent torture film. But whatever the
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: case was, he was killed for his denial to participate
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: this murder. This message that there was no option to
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: deny the family what they wanted caused many of the
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: members to lay low for quite some time. One member
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: that didn't slow down, however, was Bevin von Einem, an
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: associate of Darren Stevenson, the murdered lawyer. Bevin von Adam
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 1: had become friends with high profile members of the family
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: through shared interests, in this case, the sick satisfaction they
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: all gained from watching films of young boys being beaten, ripped,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: and sometimes murdered on camera. It's alleged that many members
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: of the family, the high ranking social elite had aided
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: Bevin von Einem and his crimes against young men and boys,
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 1: but it was also said that many more boys that
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: went missing were also victims of the family, used for
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: snuff films and then discarded. A theory regarding Bevin's killings
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: is that he used his victims to create snuff films
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: for the family. So if you don't know what a
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: snuff film, it's a film where somebody is murdered, like
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: actually murdered on camera. And there are some really truly sick,
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: twisted people out there that get off on this shit.
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 1: If you look it up online, it's kind of insane.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: There are people that say, oh, there's no proof, but
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: a snuff film has ever been produced in real life.
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: There's no proof there's ever been a snuff film made.
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: Shut the up. There are thousands of snuff films that
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: have been proved to have been produced. So I don't
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 1: know why there is this myth online that snuff films
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 1: themselves are a myth because they do in fact exist.
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 1: And just like with North Fox Island and the Oakland
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 1: County child killings, there you go. There are these allegations
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: family members to this day that believe that those kids
• 1:05:26
  Speaker 1: were murdered on film to be sold. Here you go
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: again with the snuff films and the family. What seems
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 1: to happen is that these pedophile rings start off rain children,
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: then they group together and they decide they want to
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: rag kids together. Then some people start making money from
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: these rinks, or they really enjoy these rinks. And as
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: time goes on, some of the clients where the people
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: involved in these pedophile rings start to say, rating a
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: child just isn't enough. What would I really like to do? Well, nowadays,
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 1: I would really like to torture a child. Then the
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: torture turns to man, I'd really like to rape, torture
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: and murder this child. And those there are pedophiles out
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: there that you want to see that sixtion, And that's
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: why these snuff thumbs, you know, slowly you see in time,
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: especially in the seventies and eighties, start to be produced
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 1: by these groups. So the family though, back to the family,
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 1: they somehow went untouched throughout the process of all these investigations,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: with authorities failing to properly investigate or interview these high
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: level people, these doctors, these politicians and judges that were
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: supposedly involved the reasonings were less than convincing, normally being
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: called unreliable tips. And sometimes there was no reason at
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: all for failing to investigate these accused people. And when
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: some of these people were finally brought up on charges,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: their charges seemed to disappear, as if by magic or
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: more likely through influence self. Were the family murders deliberately
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: unsolved or were people ordered to stay quiet. Now one
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: could argue that Bevin von Einem acted alone, but there
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 1: are clues that the family was involved. You see, before
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: Allen's death, he had charges brought against him. It said
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 1: that he engaged the services of none other than von
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 1: Ainem's associate, Darrence Stevenson, to help defend himself. He was
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 1: also accused of dabbling in recreational drugs that he may
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: have purchased from Bevin von Einem. Not only this, but
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 1: accusations have been made that Darko Castelan, the boy that
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: Alan met shortly before his death, had been seen with
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 1: Gno Gombardella in that pedophile and that the two had
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: been trying to lure in a fifteen year old boy
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: to take part in his second encounter with them. Darrence
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: the lawyer was also certainly involved in the family, and
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: Bevin von Einem was said to be one of his
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: closest associates. There's more than enough evidence between these connections
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: to believe that von Einem committed these murders. But he
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: wasn't alone. He had help one hundred percent. Back to
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: mister p this guy still we don't know who the
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 1: hell mister B is. Mister B is walking out in
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: Adelaide in Australia to this day a freeman, and he
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: named many of these associates and gave great detail on
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: their and murder and torture of these young boys, but
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 1: none of them were ever even charged with these crimes.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 1: At every turn when you look into this story, just
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: like so many other stories, luck seems to favor the
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: family or something darker than luck, social influence and death threats.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: You see, Darrence, that lawyer had been killed for trying
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: to leave the family. He'd been shot in the back
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: of the head and stuffed into a freezer. Perhaps the
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: family was kept together through these sorts of threats. As
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: Dennis Saint Denis told Trevor, you'll keep your mouth shut
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 1: if you know what's good for you. To make matters
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: even more concerning Bevin von Einem was not only accused
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 1: of the five murders. Throughout the late seventies and early eighties,
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: mister Bees's testimony implicated Bevin von Einem in numerous crimes,
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 1: actually crimes involved in the disappearances or murders of up
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: to one hundred and fifty missing and murdered young men
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: and children pedophile crimes. These people were implicated in the murders, subductions,
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: disappear searances of up to one hundred and fifty miners.
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: I believe they're awn miners. They could be, you know,
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: up to age eighteen. I don't really know the age
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: of consent in Australia, but they're all young. Mister b
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: implicated Bevin in the Adelaide Oval kidnappings, when two young
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 1: girls were kidnapped from an Australian rules football match at
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: the Adelaide Oval. He was also implicated in the abduction
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 1: of the Beaumont Children when three young siblings disappeared from
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: Glenel Beach near Adelaide. Bevin von Einem, if you don't
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 1: know this by now, is truly a fucking monster, and
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: even in his many years of incarceration, his ways have
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 1: never seemed to have changed. You see. Debbie Marshall, a
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: true crime author, visited the murderer von Einem in Port
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: Augusta Prison, where he had been transferred from Yatala Labor
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: Prison in two thousand and seven. At Yatala, Bevin von
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: Einem had been investigated for allegedly riding an inmate several times.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 1: He'd also been accused of writing several fictitious stories about
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: sell acts between a child and a man, though the
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: hands and fingerprints were later said not to match. I
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 1: don't buy it bold, I think he definitely wrote that
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 1: six footit. Bevin was then placed in high security at
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 1: Port Augusta, just as he had been at the Atalla prison,
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 1: frighteningly mirroring mister B's testimony. Around August of two thousand
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: and seven, a seven News network archive asked for information
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: about a man seen near a storm drain that the
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: police were investigating concerning the disappearance of those Beaumont children
• 1:10:27
  Speaker 1: we just mentioned. And the man in the news film
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 1: bore a striking, frightening resemblance to Bevin von Einem in
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 1: his youth. This was the man that Debbie Marshall had
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: come to see and he had not lost any of
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 1: his horrific demeter. When she sat down in front of him,
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: Debbie stated that she felt like clarice in silence of
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: the lambs sitting in front of murderer and cannibal doctor
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 1: Hannibal Lecter. Guards with guns stood in the room as
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 1: she and the criminal began to speak. She was the
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 1: first visitor in seven years, and perhaps to garner sympathy,
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 1: Bevin first talks about his abusive father on the second
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 1: abuse he faced at the hands of his father's friend. Now,
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: that's tragic and obviously and motion is never excusable. But
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 1: at that point, Debbie only cared about these murder cases
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 1: and abductions and said Bevin had committed. She asked about
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: the wealthy businessman who has still remained unnamed, and how
• 1:11:17
  Speaker 1: involved he was with the family. Now in this interview,
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: Bevin von Ininam says he hasn't seen the businessman in
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 1: many years and that he didn't know anything about the
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 1: family because it didn't exist. According to Bevin von Einem,
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 1: the family doesn't exist now. While Bevin von Einem had
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: been in prison, he had allegedly confessed to a fellow
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: inmate that he had been the one responsible for the
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 1: missing Beaumont children. Bevin von Einem denies this accusation, though
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 1: once again when Debbie presses him for an answer, their
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 1: time was limited to speak to each other, and after
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: this Debbie left. Bevin von Einem had been charming and
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: kind on the first visit, yet the next day, when
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: Debbie returned, he began to show his true colors. Debbie
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: Marshall asked him blatantly about Richard Kelvin, and the man's
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 1: demeanor suddenly changed. He was no longer charming or kind.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 1: He was now revealing a psychopath who was no stranger
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: to murder. Bevin became unsettled and stated coldly to Debbie.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: Everyone painted him as this straight boy, but he wasn't.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: His father was in the media, and they wanted to
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 1: get the message out that he was straight. Bevin, for
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: many years still denied killing Richard. From the time he
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: had pleaded not guilty, he had maintained that innocence. Yet
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: Debbie's next question all but proved his guilt. You see,
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: Debbie asked if Richard was wearing the dog collar when
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: Bevin saw him. He admitted yes, as he was. The
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: detectives in Adelaide could never get this admission out of him,
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: and it meant that he had been stalking Richard for
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: some time before he was kidnapped. Richard, you see, had
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 1: removed the dog collar at the bus stop where he
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: and his friend parted ways after playing football. Bevin initially
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: stated that he had almost run over Richard as he
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 1: was walking home, but Richard wouldn't have been wearing the
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 1: dog caller if Bevin's story was true. The admission also
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: meant that Bevin had put the caller back on the
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 1: boy after seeing him wearing it. It reveals the truly
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 1: sadistic nature of von Einem as he stalked young Richard
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: and put the caller back around his neck, specifically for
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 1: the torture and murder of the young boy. It shows
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 1: that after all these years, as this man is in
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 1: his seventies and his health is degrading, he's finally starting
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: to slip and tell some truth about the story. Perhaps,
• 1:13:27
  Speaker 1: as the years go on more will come out. In
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: the search for truth, Bevin may reveal his secrets and
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 1: perhaps reveal the names of those who helped him carry
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: out these pedophile crimes, finally opening the door to reveal
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 1: the horrific, deep dark world of Adelaide's family. I mean,
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 1: this is a pedophile ring that reaches all the way
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 1: up through the politicians of the day, through the celebrities
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: of the day, the judges of the day who were
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: deciding the fates of other criminals. This reaches two doctors
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: who were treating I'm assuming chill in their clinics, who
• 1:14:01
  Speaker 1: people trusted with their health, and only fuck God knows
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: how far this stretches. I mean, these people sure aren't
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 1: gonna squeal on the real high top players, the people
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: who were really at the top of this organization. Von
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: Einem is almost like a low cog in the machine,
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: if you want to think of it like that. He's
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: running these crimes, he's doing this, he's procuring these boys,
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: he's still raising enjoying these ranks. But who is he
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 1: really working for and who were the people that were
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 1: stopping by this apartment or this house and raised boys
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 1: or even appearing on camera in these child films and
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 1: these snuff films. I mean, it's seconding shit seconding. But
• 1:14:44
  Speaker 1: perhaps maybe soon in the future von Einem will admit
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 1: to more of the crimes he carried out. The crimes
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 1: that mister b stated Von Einem committed, or perhaps new
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 1: information will come from other sources, such as Trevor's diary,
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: which still hasn't been fully explored. Now that many of
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: the suspects and implicated names have passed away, people such
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 1: as Gino Garmbardella the pedophile, Sarah Novak the victim turned
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 1: accomplished and proved Firment the rapist, many of the opportunities
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: for the truth have been lost. The best they can
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: be helped for is that someone realizes the horrors of
• 1:15:19
  Speaker 1: their actions, that depravity of the organization that they were
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: involved with this pedophile ring, and the pain that their
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: secrecy has caused. All they have to do is come
• 1:15:27
  Speaker 1: forward and allow justice to take place. The city of Adelaide,
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 1: now known as the City of Corpses, has indeed earned
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: its name. Kidnappings, murders, and many crimes against children filled
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: the police files there you see. Adelaide was said in
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: its nineteen eighty two promotional video to have that feeling.
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: That feeling was said to be gentle and kind, But
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 1: according to the story of the Family murders, that feeling
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: is one of dread, utterer, terror, suspicion and fear among
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 1: the people of South Australia. Murderers and pedophiles wat freely
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: protected by their own status. People still look over their shoulders,
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: protecting their children and loved ones from being the next
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 1: body found. The family should be a word dedicated to
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: a group of people who share kindness and love amongst
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: each other. It should be a comforting name, a title
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: given to those who are nurturing and compassionate. But in Adelaide,
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 1: South Australia, the words mean anything. But you see in
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 1: South Australia, the family is dedicated to death, horror, conspiracy
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: and injustice. Holy y'ah, that was a long one. Oh
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: my god. I hope you guys enjoyed that really deep dive.
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 1: Thank you to Saberin for writing that script. And just
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 1: think about the implications. This isn't a true crime podcast
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: meant to just tell these stories. This needs to wake
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 1: people up. Think about those implications. There are a group
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 1: of people in the god government, people in the highest
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 1: rankings of Australia, politicians, lawyers, everyday people, doctors, prominent people.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: And those are just the people we know about from
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 1: one guy who leaved who knows how far out that stretched,
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: and those people were never tried, charged, convicted of a
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: single child, when not only were these five boys and murdered,
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 1: mutilated and tortured and held hostage for days too, when
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 1: these groups of men would come through to where they
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 1: were being held and ripped them, but these pedophiles were
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: being murdering kids all over the country. Could be as
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: many as one hundred and fifty victims, and that's a
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: lot of pedophiles. And they were probably filming all of this,
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 1: sharing all of this. It could have been selling this
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: sp and who knows where this sho ended up. It
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 1: could be going to America, it'd be going to Asia,
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 1: it could be going to South America, to pedophile groups
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: all over and only one guy is brought down for this,
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: none of even the other accomplices, just one guy, and
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: even that one fing sick bastard won't even admit that
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 1: the family is real. It's a lot of food for thought,
• 1:17:57
  Speaker 1: but please share this video out helped me to raise
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: some awareeness about these despicable crimes. Hopefully so much awareness
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 1: can eventually be raised through this show and constantly talking
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 1: about this stuff that some more investigations can be opened
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: and the public can pressure the people making the laws
• 1:18:12
  Speaker 1: or performing the investigations in Australia to reopen. But anyways, guys,
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 1: make sure to leave me a like comment your thoughts
• 1:18:20

• 1:18:25
