00:00:00 Robert Farquharson The crime committed by Robert Farquharson has been etched on the minds of Australian's since 2005. Farquharson drove his car into a dam off the Princes Highway near Winchelsea on Father's day, drowning his three sons, Jai, 10, Tyler, 7 and Bailey, 2. After two trials, Farquharson was found guilty of murder with the prosecution confirming he killed his children to get revenge on his wife from whom he had recently divorced. Featuring interviews with Cindy Gambino, the children's mother, plus detectives from the team charged with bringing Farquharson to justice, the programme reveals the true horror of this shocking crime. 00:43:35 Peter Falconio On the 14 July 2001, British couple Peter Falconio and Joanne Lees stopped on the Stuart Highway in the Northern Territory after a man flagged down their car. This man, later identified as Bradley Murdoch, shot Falconio before tying Lees up. She managed to escape while Murdoch was distracted, hiding in nearby bushes for five hours until she was able to run out into the road and flag down a truck driver who took her to safety. Falconio's body has never been found. The subsequent trial and media furore would stun the nation as well as raising questions about the strength of the allegations against Murdoch. 01:27:30 The Strathfield Massacre The Strathfield massacre in Sydney on the 17th August 1991 will be forever remembered as one of Australia's most shocking gun crimes. A lone gunman, Wade Frankum, entered a shopping mall one afternoon, had a cup of coffee and observed shoppers going about their business. Moments later, he stabbed a teenage girl next to him before opening fire on unsuspecting shoppers for ten minutes. The devastation left eight dead and six wounded. Before police arrived, he took his own life. Officers later found a collection of violent literature and films at his home - the only clue into why this killer took all those innocent lives. The crime provoked fierce debate on the country's gun laws. Absolute Crime is your go-to channel for the best crime documentaries.
