FORENSICS | The Headless Body in the Mineshaft
Manage episode 492941587 series 2620622
In the winter of 1988, two gold prospectors were scouring the picturesque Mount Firebrace in Victoria… when their search unearthed something far more chilling than treasure. Inside a disused mine shaft, they found a decomposed, mummified, headless body.
For local police and Melbourne’s elite homicide squad, it was a mystery frozen in time.
Could forensics bring the truth to light?
That's what today’s guest, forensic pathologist Professor David Ranson, set out to uncover.
