"I Hope you Catch the Bastard" - The Murder of Daniel Morcombe

December 25, 2025 • Belinda Brady • Season 1 • Episode 35

It's December 1993, and 13 year old Daniel Morcombe sets off to catch a bus to the nearby shopping centre to buy Christmas presents for his family. He never makes it to the shopping centre and is never seen alive again.

What happened to Daniel will take years and an undercover police operation to uncover, and would finally give his family closure and put a repeat offender behind bars.

Join Belinda over a cup of joe - or two - as she takes a deep dive into the tragic case of Daniel Morcombe - the case that, quite simply, broke Australia's heart.

TRIGGER WARNING - This episode discusses child SA - listener discretion is advised.
