Australian True Crime

From The Teacher's Pet to Bronwyn - Hedley Thomas

On March 19, 2004, Brianna Maitland’s car was discovered backed into an abandoned farmhouse known as the Dutchburn House, with personal items left behind but no sign of the 17-year-old. 

Brianna had been building an independent life, working two jobs and studying for her GED, and was last seen leaving her shift at the Black Lantern Inn late the night before.

On this episode of Australian True Crime International, we speak with Tim Pilleri and Lance Reenstierna, hosts of the podcast Missing.

You can listen to Missing, and all other podcasts from Crawlspace Media, wherever you get your podcasts.

If you have information about the disappearance of Brianna Maitland, you can anonymously report it here.

Shortcut: Brianna Maitland’s Last Known Movements - ATC International

In 2007, Australia was captivated by the two week run of father and son outlaws Gino and Mark Stocco. They evaded police by driving laps around the southern states of Australia, while social media went wild with sightings and memes.

Eventually, they were captured, and the real story, more bizarre than anyone could have imagined, could finally be told. Journalist Nino Bucci has written the definitive account in his book, "The Stoccos: Like Father Like Son" and he joins us to talk about it.

This is a re-issue of episode 53.

You can purchase your copy of "The Stoccos: Like Father Like Son" here.
