info_outlineThe case of Leongatha’s Erin Patterson, who was recently convicted of murdering three relatives with a deadly mushroom meal, captured headlines around the world. But did you know an even more prodigious killer lived in the same small Victorian farming community in the 1930s? Join Leongatha journalist Matt Dunn, alongside author Katherine Kovacic and former Victoria Police detective Narelle Fraser, as they uncover the chilling story of Arnold Sodeman—a serial killer who terrorised Victoria in the 1930s.
In this episode we look into Sodeman's past, working to establish an idea of who he was and why he did what he did. Studying his early beginnings as a teenage criminal, right up to his time as Australia's most reviled child killer, we beg the question 'was he psychopath and could such a man love'?
Explore the overlooked details, the investigative missteps, and the terrifying escalation of Sodeman’s crimes. How did one of Victoria’s worst killers evade justice for so long? Tune in as we piece together the dark legacy of a murderer who walked unnoticed among the community—until the truth finally caught up.
