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.

Former homicide detective Andrew Stamper reflects on the landmark investigations that defined Melbourne's underworld era and what it took to stop a city sliding into violence.

He shares the inside story of leading the High Country case from a missing persons report to a multi-year homicide investigation, and the emotional toll of searching for answers for families left behind.

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.

Two weeks into his policing career, Jason Semple was left bleeding in a Sydney gutter after being stabbed during a violent street confrontation that also claimed the life of his fellow police officer, Peter Forsyth.

The attack in Ultimo in 1998 shocked the nation and changed the course of Semple’s life. This is the first of two episodes, where Jason recounts the night that nearly killed him and the moment that defined his future in law enforcement.

Some of you may recognise the name and voice of this episode’s guest, It’s retired NSW Police Detective Sergeant Damian Loone who featured on Hedley Thomas’s extraordinary podcast The Teacher’s Pet. Damian investigated the 1982 disappearance of Sydney mum Lynnette Dawson for years, bringing the case to two coronial inquests. Lynette’s former husband Chris Dawson was charged with her murder in 2018 and is awaiting trial.

Damian features again in another major podcast that’s gripped listeners' attention worldwide. It’s the excellent BBC Sounds multi-episode podcast Fairy Meadow about 3-year-old Cheryl Grimmer’s haunting disappearance from Fairy Meadow Beach in Wollongong in 1970.

Damian and Detective Frank Sanvitale, were the detectives tasked with having another look at Cheryl’s disappearance. The case had basically gone nowhere for more than 45 years until the file was passed to them.

If you'd like to assist the Grimmer family, you can also sign this petition - addressed to Attorney General Speakman - to help in the fight to find justice for Cheryl.

The BBC Sounds podcast Fairy Meadow, hosted by Jon Kay, can be found here.

There is a $1 Million dollar reward from NSW Police for information about Cheryl’s abduction and murder.
