Show Notes

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.

 

We're joined today by Dr. Claire Ferguson, a Forensic Criminologist and Associate Professor at QUT, who has spent years diving into the complexities of staged homicides and detection avoidance strategies in Australia. Claire’s research and expertise have supported police forces and courtrooms nationwide.

 

Widely published and highly regarded, Claire is here to discuss the ways in which criminal offenders stage fake crime scenes to deter criminal investigators, as well as the tactics they use to avoid suspicion.

 

Leading the conversation with Claire today is Dr. Xanthe Mallett, our guest host and fellow forensic criminologist.
