Show Notes

In 1980, three friends were travelling on the South Western Highway from Perth to Harvey. They encountered a slight bend in the road and crashed into a tree. One of the friends, Terry, died at the scene, the two others escaped with minor injuries. 

Investigations to find who was responsible began, but, both friends denied being the driver.

The case was strange, and investigator Hadyn Green was unable to make an arrest until the appearance of a surprise piece of evidence. 

Hadyn sat down with host Brent Sanders to unpack the circumstances around the crash and to explain the crippling reality of delivering death notices to families.
