Shortcut: Policing the Underworld and the High Country

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.
