Australian True Crime Was my ancestor Australia's first serial killer?
Like many of us, our guest today has researched her family tree using an online ancestry website.
Unlike most of us, Julie DiBella found a serial killer lurking in hers.
Julie has spent the last couple of years researching the crimes of her great great grandfather, Robert Francis Burns, who has gone down in the histroy books as potentially Australia's first serial killer.
Julie is writing a book about her infamous ancestor, and she joins us on Australian True Crime today to tell us what she's discovered so far.
We will keep you updated once Julie's book on Robert Francis Burns is released. Click here to purchase her previous book on 1970s Sharpie culture: Rage - A Sharpie's Journal
