19 January 2025, 5:00 pm - 32 minutes 19 secondsMurdered by Children - Re-Issue
This is a re-issue of episode #2 of Australian True Crime.
When Marie Greening Zidan's handbag was stolen by two boys, she called the police. She couldn't get to the station to report it, it was a Saturday, and the 73-year-old was caring for her disabled adult son.
The police said to her "We can't get to you. We will come on Monday." But Monday came too late. The boys, aged 15 and 16, came back the next day and raped, bashed and murdered the grandmother while her disabled son lay terrified in another room.
Just days after the horrifying home invasion, the killers called Marie's daughter and left her taunting phone messages. They were eventually charged with manslaughter. And now, they walk free.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
When Greg Jenkins' mother, Anna, vanished in Malaysia, local authorities provided little to no assistance.
Determined to uncover the truth, Greg launched his own investigation, ultimately finding Anna's remains—but the discovery only deepened the mystery surrounding her disappearance, and the subsequent inaction of Malaysian authorities.

This is a re-issue of episode 4 of Australian True Crime, released in 2017.
A popular, gentle suburban single mother, whom friends and family said didn’t have an enemy in the world, was the victim of several bizarre incidents of vandalism before she was brutally murdered in her own home.
She’d been alone in the house for just minutes when her teenage son returned and made the terrible discovery. Was she being stalked by a stranger? Did she have a second life no one knew about?

5 January 2025, 6:23 pm - 16 minutes 7 secondsUpdate: Keith Lees Has Been Arrested
We recently published two episodes dedicated to raising awareness and seeking information about the whereabouts of Keith Lees.
Keith Lees has been evading police detection for over a year now, in regards to the 1997 death of Meaghan Louise Rose.
Since his arrest, Queensland Police have confirmed that one of our listeners contacted them with the breakthrough they needed to locate him.
We will be covering this story as it unfolds, but for now, we have an update on the story and the arrest from Nine News reporter, Josh Bavas.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
In our last episode, we heard from two guests, Wren Dawnsong and Detective Sergeant Anthony Johns, about the search for a very dangerous man who is believed to be living somewhere in Australia right now.
His name is Keith Lees, though he is likely using an assumed name.
Today, we hear from Christine, whose sister, Meaghan Louise Rose, was found dead at the bottom of a cliff 27 years ago, shortly after she told her family she was leaving Lees.
We remind you that we’ve shared photos of Lees on our social media accounts. He should not be approached under any circumstances.
*We would also like to remind our listeners that, while Keith Lees has been convicted of one homicide, he has not been convicted of any others. The following episode contains personal views and reflections from those affected by this case and should not be taken as evidence of his guilt or innocence.

29 December 2024, 5:01 pm - 27 minutes 40 secondsShortcut: Do Not Approach Keith Lees
This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
Keith Lees is a very dangerous man who is living somewhere in Australia, and is sought by police across two states for the 1997 murder of Meaghan Louise Rose.
He's probably living under an assumed name. He may have stolen someone else's identity and he definitely should not be approached or confronted.
In this part one of our story, we hear from one of the children of Keith Lees, Wren Dawnsong. Wren was living with Keith when he murdered Barry Waters, for which he was convicted and served prison time.
Wren was also living with her father when Keith's then partner, Meaghan Louise Rose, was found dead at the foot of a cliff on the Sunshine Coast on July 18th, 1997.
In part two of this series, we will be speaking with Meaghan's sister. That episode will be available later this week. ATC Plus subscribers will get early and ad-free access.
*We would also like to remind our listeners that, while Keith Lees has been convicted of one homicide, he has not been convicted of any others. The following episode contains personal views and reflections from those affected by this case and should not be taken as evidence of his guilt or innocence.
