Wrong Skin, a new investigative podcast from journalist Richard Baker, examines the events that unfolded in this remote corner of Australia, in a six-part series, launching on Sunday, July 15.
Investigative reporter, Richard Baker said the mystery of what happened to Julie and Richard is the most compelling story he’s come across in 20 years of journalism.
“What started with a phone call, has opened up the biggest can of worms about ancient culture and the treatment of women. Even more than that it’s all about power and control.”
“It took a year of long phone conversations and trips to the Kimberley to gain the trust of those closest to Richard and Julie. They’re scared, but they’re brave enough to speak up.”
To understand what happened, listeners need to go outside their comfort zone and into a part of Australia few of us know much about.
The first episode of Wrong Skin will be released on Sunday 15 July.
