Listen to part two of this conversation with Nino, here.  In the mid 90s, the Stoccos seemed like any other Aussie family. A mum and dad, Connie and Gino, and their two teenage kids, Mark and Christina.But in 1997, the breakdown of this seemingly happy family marked the beginning of a dark new chapter for Gino of crime and violence. It was a path he wouldn’t walk alone though, as little by little, Gino’s son Mark, would join him in his offending. What started as stolen groceries or a fall out with an employer would manifest into serious lawlessness. The likes of which would see the pair listed amongst Australia’s most wanted criminals.  THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia CREDITS Guests: Nino Bucci, author of The Stoccos: Like Father, Like Son Host & Producer: Emma Gillespie Executive Producer: Gia Moylan Audio Producer: Madeline Joannou  GET IN TOUCH: Feedback?

The murders of Harvey and Jeannette Crewe in June 1970 were labelled the death of innocence in New Zealand, and would go on to become one of the country’s most infamous cold cases.  In the immediate aftermath, a man named Arthur Allan Thomas was found guilty of the crime. His fate sealed by a piece of evidence so compelling that a jury had no doubt he was the killer. A piece of evidence that years later would be revealed to have been planted.  Thomas was granted a royal pardon after serving nine years in prison. But the question of who really killed Harvey and Jeannette Crewe remains to this day.

The phenomenon of stalking is as prolific as it is insidious. The breadth of quiet suffering perpetrators calculate and inflict on their subjects often leads to victims being completely unable to identify what’s happening to them, and to seek help. Journalist Nicole Madigan was stalked by a woman she barely knew for three years. Her experience led her to investigate the power, fixation and control that drives stalkers, and the havoc they wreak on the lives of their victims.  THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia CREDITS Guest: Nicole Madigan You can learn more about her new book Obsession here.

Michelle Burgess is one of Australia’s most infamous ‘black widows’ - a term given to female psychopaths who either kill or organise other men to kill other men. In 2001, Michelle plotted two murders. The targets were her husband Darren, and a woman named Carolyn Matthews - a mother of three whose husband Kevin had become involved in an affair with Michelle. While Michelle & Kevin would only see through one half of this twisted plan before they were stopped, they would eventually be served with two of the longest non-parole periods in South Australia's history.

In 2010, 52-year-old Des Campbell was found guilty of murdering his wife Janet Fisicaro. The pair had only been married six months when they embarked on a camping trip in the Royal National Park, south of Sydney. A trip that sadly only Des would survive.  Initially he would tell police that Janet had fallen from a 50-metre cliff, but investigators would soon come to realise that the 49-year-old hadn’t fallen at all… she’d been pushed.
