On December 12, 2022, Constables Rachel McCrow and Matthew Arnold were killed in the line of duty.

A neighbour, Alan Dare, also died that day. As did the three people who were firing at them.

But there are still many unanswered questions from that night, which will be examined when an inquest gets underway at the end of this month.

9News presenter and host of podcast The Ultimate Sacrifice, Melissa Downes, joins us to discuss the deadliest shooting in Queensland Police history.

The Wonnangatta Valley is the perfect place for anyone hiding a secret, or anyone who doesn’t want to be found. The perfect place to have an affair. But also, the perfect place to get away with murder.

Over the years, several people have gone missing there, never to be found again, and that very nearly happened to 74-year-old Russell Hill and 73-year-old Carol Clay.

But thanks to some careful police work, detectives were able to track down a man named Greg Lynn. And with his trial just concluded, the former Jetstar pilot is waiting to find out how long he’ll spend behind bars.

In March 2021, Sarah Everard’s body was found in a stream in Kent, wrapped in a bag. The 33-year-old had been raped and murdered after being abducted off the street in London’s south.

But Sarah wasn’t dragged away kicking and screaming. She went willingly with her captor because - as a serving police officer - he pretended to arrested her.

We speak to LBC journalist Henry Riley to revisit this crime, the impact it had on us and the changes that have been made since.
