Episode description

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, a spate of young backpackers began going missing in the Australian outback. Their families' pleas for help fell on deaf ears until the gruesome discovery of their remains was found deep within the Belanglo Forest. The crimes are pinned on serial killer Ivan Milat in 1996 but he never confessed to any of the murders despite irrefutable evidence. In May 2019, as Milat lay dying of terminal cancer, police raced against the clock to elicit a deathbed confession. Will Milat finally give the victims’ families closure? Or continue to toy with them?
