The Disappearance of Marjorie Norval

Season 1, Ep. 285

Marjorie Norval was a mould breaker. In the 1930s, she was a single, gregarious career woman, living in a hotel in the Brisbane CBD. She worked for the Premiere William Forgan Smith and his wife, which afforded her to live a lifestyle that was out of reach for most women in conservative Brisbane at the time.

That lifestyle came to an abrupt end when she disappeared without a trace, one sunny day in 1938.

In the days and months to come, four heroic rescuers would die, one of her rumoured lovers would commit suicide, and a light would be shone on the city’s shady characters, from illegal abortionists to peeping Toms.

Our guest today, Michael Adams, hosts his own podcast titled Forgotten Australia, which can be listened to wherever you get your podcasts.

ATC Plus: Former FBI Agent, Stuart Kaplan Provides his Insight on the Idaho Murders

This episode is exclusively for ATC Plus subscribers.28 year old Ryan Christopher Kohberger was arrested and charged in late December with the murders of University of Idaho students Madison Mogen, 21. Kaylee Goncalves, 21. Xana Kernodle, 20 and Xana's boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, 20.Police allege Kohberger entered the house at 1122 King Road in Moscow Idaho that was shared by the females victims at around 4 a.m. on the morning of November 13, 2022. They believe that by 4:25, less than half an hour later, he brutally murdered all four and left the premises.This case is being covered so breathlessly by America's media. I've watched a lot of coverage, and my favourite pundit by far joins us for this episode of Australian True Crime Plus. He's an attorney now, but for decades he was an FBI agent specialising in just the kind of operation the agency mounted against Brian Kohberger in December.His name is Stuart Kaplan.CREDITS:Host: Meshel Laurie.
