7NEWS Spotlight: Oct 17

7NEWS Spotlight returns this Sunday with “The Vanishing” in which Melissa Caddick’s husband Anthony Koletti breaks his silence on his wife’s disappearance.

Presenter Michael Usher said: “Like everyone, I’ve been fascinated in the truth behind Melissa Caddick’s disappearance from the beginning. I’ve had so many questions, and now I’ve had the chance to put them all to Melissa’s husband. He answers them all. The replies, at times, aren’t comfortable. His explanations, equally revealing and curious.

“He’s lost his wife. Melissa’s teenage son has lost his mum. Her investors have lost millions of dollars. And her death is shrouded in mystery. The interviews with Melissa’s husband are a rollercoaster of questions, more questions, surprising answers and intrigue.”

The mystery surrounding fraudster Melissa Caddick and her missing millions has transfixed the nation ever since she disappeared from her beachside mansion in the early hours of November 12 last year.

The day before, Australian Federal Police and ASIC had surprised Caddick, her husband and her teenage son when they raided her multi-million-dollar home, uncovering designer clothes, handbags and jewellery along with piles of fake business documents – all evidence of the elaborate Ponzi scheme Caddick had been operating since 2012 to swindle up to 60 trusting investors out of more than $23 million.

What Australia has heard so far is just the tip of the iceberg.
