The body of 27-year-old mother of two, Samantha Bodsworth, was found in Noosa, surrounded by wattle trees. The killer thinks it’s the perfect crime, but what they underestimated was the power of the tiny, silent witnesses clinging to almost everything they touched – pollen. In this Rewind episode of Crime Insiders | Forensics, former host Kathryn Fox talks to Dr Lynne Milne, the scientist at the forefront of forensic palynology. We learn how, for the first time in an Australian criminal case, pollen helped unmask a murderer. This episode references men's violence against women. If you or someone you know is experiencing, or at risk of experiencing, domestic, family or sexual violence, call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732, text 0458 737 732 or visit 1800RESPECT.org.au for online chat and video call services.

In this episode, we talk to TV and food personality Melissa Leong, the subject of the cover story in Sunday Life's September 28 issue. Leong has worn many hats: talented pianist, advertising executive, food writer and even UFC broadcast host. But it’s the three years she spent as a judge on MasterChef Australia that made her a household name, and also put her under the spotlight. In this interview with Sunday Life associate editor Melissa Singer, Leong talks about her formative years and food memories, and why she’s revealing the darkest chapter of her life. You can read the Sunday Life piece here. And a heads-up, this episode contains some strong language, and discussions about assault and sexual assault. If you or someone you know is impacted by sexual assault or family violence, call 1800RESPECT on 1800 737 732 or visit www.1800RESPECT.org.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is not a story about foolishness. It’s a story about sophisticated betrayal and the courage to rebuild. In this deeply human and confronting episode of Leading You, I’m joined by Tracy Hall, advocate, author, and survivor of intimate fraud. Tracy’s story begins with a Crime Stoppers video. A blurry arrest. A name she didn’t recognise. And the sickening realisation that the man she had loved for 18 months was not who he said he was. Together, we unpack how grooming really works, not through loud red flags, but through subtle, believable beige ones. From carefully crafted details to plausible stories, Tracy helps us understand how even the most intelligent, capable people can be caught in a web of deceit. She also challenges the victim-blaming narratives still dominating headlines and explains why words like “lost money” completely erase the crime. This conversation isn’t just about financial loss. It’s about grief, shame, reclaiming your voice, and the quiet strength it takes to speak out. Tracy’s journey from devastation to advocacy is a masterclass in resilience and truth-telling and a reminder that prevention starts with compassion, not judgment. In this episode, we cover: How grooming really happens and why “beige flags” are harder to spot than red ones The emotional and psychological toll of intimate fraud Why victim-blaming language causes harm and what to say instead How men in their 60s and teens are being increasingly targeted Practical steps to take if your gut says something is off How Tracy reclaimed her voice through Who the Hell is Hamish?, her memoir The Last Victim, and advocacy work Actions & Insights: If your gut says “something’s off,” pause and talk to someone you trust Use direct, respectful questions if you're worried about someone you care about Report even if you never go public, it helps build the data that protects others Review how you discuss fraud within your team, at home, or in the workplace.

This episode was originally published on June 19th, 2022.Australia in the mid twentieth century has a dark history of forced adoption.
