“They call me Doctor Death”: Roger Byard Pt.1

I Catch Killers with Gary Jubelin

A man eaten by his own cats, cannibal killers and mummified men dying alone in their homes. These are just some of the cases forensic pathologist Roger Byard has faced in his career. Roger sits down with Gary Jubelin to talk about the cases that he’ll never forget including the young woman who was buried alive by her boyfriend and the Snowtown murders where eight bodies were found in barrels.
