This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
In our last episode, we heard from two guests, Wren Dawnsong and Detective Sergeant Anthony Johns, about the search for a very dangerous man who is believed to be living somewhere in Australia right now.
His name is Keith Lees, though he is likely using an assumed name.
Today, we hear from Christine, whose sister, Meaghan Louise Rose, was found dead at the bottom of a cliff 27 years ago, shortly after she told her family she was leaving Lees.
We remind you that we’ve shared photos of Lees on our social media accounts. He should not be approached under any circumstances.
*We would also like to remind our listeners that, while Keith Lees has been convicted of one homicide, he has not been convicted of any others. The following episode contains personal views and reflections from those affected by this case and should not be taken as evidence of his guilt or innocence.
