Allison and Gerard Baden-Clay - Part 1

About this episode

Early on the morning of April 20th, 2012, Gerard Baden-Clay called to report his wife Allison missing. He said she had gone out for a walk and hadn’t returned. When the police showed up to take a report, they were immediately put on high alert because of two distinct scratches running down Gerard’s cheek, which he claimed to be the result of a shaving accident. Soon, the entire state of Queensland, Australia would be captivated by Allison’s story, with countless volunteers joining the search. As details of Gerard’s secret life, affairs, and business struggles emerged, suspicion quickly turned to him. But would there be enough evidence for justice to be served?<br /><br /><a href="https://patreon.com/lovemarrykill" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><b>Listen to both parts now, ad-free, on Patreon</b></a>.<br /><br /><b>Today's snacks</b>: <a href="https://www.food.com/recipe/vegemite-on-toast-204570" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Vegemite toast</a>, <a href="https://www.arnotts.com/brands/tim-tam" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tim Tams</a>, and <a href="https://www.violetcrumble.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Violet Crumble</a><br /><br /><b>Sources:</b><ul><li><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23493467-the-murder-of-allison-baden-clay" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Murray, David.
