ABC revisits the Claremont serial killings, detailing how police solved the murders.

Australian Story revisits the Claremont serial killings, detailing how police solved the murders, plus new interviews.

Sixteen years after Australian Story first covered the case of the Claremont serial killer, the program returns with a forensic investigation of how police solved two murders and exclusive interviews with victims’ families.

Three young women disappeared from the streets of Claremont during the mid-90s but, from the start, police struggled to crack the case.

In 2004, Australian Story interviewed experts who suggested a full review of police evidence. That became a “turning point” in the investigation.

By 2016, police had amassed enough forensic evidence to arrest Bradley Edwards who was found guilty of murdering Jane Rimmer and Ciara Glennon this year. There was not enough evidence to convict him over the death of Sarah Spiers.

Sarah’s father Don and Jane’s mother Jenny speak for the first time since the verdict was delivered.

8pm Monday on ABC.
