In the days before I had the Internet for research, I would go to my local library and trawl through rolls of microfiche featuring newspapers of bygone years. Here I would spend hours unraveling long forgotten cases.
Nowadays a lot of these microfiche have been digitised, and so with the aid of modern technology I will hark back to my youth and investigate a vintage Australian crime case from the 1930s.
Three young women were murdered in a park only one minute from where I used to live - and only now do their ghosts whisper a tragic tale for me to tell....

any format is fine. Old newspaper info is fine.
I just luv the way 'YOU' make what ever video or video(s) you want to make doing them 'YOUR WAY', whatever the subject matter be we know they will very interresting and we come away smarter and happyer with every one. It's like being with a dear friend sitting in front of a warm glowing fireplace, just talking over accoupple of beers. 🤘👻💖
I concur!
At his majesties pleasure was the term for never to be released back then
Redfern is coming up in leaps and bounds, the aboriginal street has been cleared out and they have all been moved on, all thats left is the housing commission now
I find the old newspaper reports fascinating
Oddie, I am never bored with whatever way you present your stories, I am just enthralled, always. Beautiful painting, you are sooooo talented, my man. Thanks for a sad, but wonderfully told, story. Stay safe.
Thank you so much 😀
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight? Even when u have a perfect snack and need a perfect video to eat the snack with, it's the best channel. 😩 Never stop your work man
😁 I appreciate that, thank you - by the way what is the perfect snack?
@@ObsoleteOddity heyy
Oh the perfect snack really depends on the craving. At this moment i want Chinese noodles with Pepsi lol very mediocre i guess , how about you?
I LOVE the microfiche research. Gives it more of an old school feel, for me anyway. Love these old stories, a lot I hear for the first time. Keep up the great work!!
I really appreciate your positive feedback - thank you very much :)
A cold, cloudy, and dismal day in Milwaukke, WI. Ideal for time for "going down a rabbit hole". Thanks ever so much💛💚💙
Indeed! You are so welcome, thanks!
I loved the content being presented this way! Please keep doing it. Never bored with your videos!
I really appreciate that, thank you.
Thank you for doing some Australian crime stories
You're most welcome, thanks for your feedback!
@@ObsoleteOddity you're welcome 😊
One of the best thing’s about the stories like this that you deliver to us as well as other channels is how the research and fact checking is done, with the information provided, and it’s presented in an informative and interesting manner. Decades and centuries of victims that would other wise been forgotten can have there stories told. Bravo to all of you that take on these tasks.
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊🙏
Some beliefs were different back then,but then again same as today if you have money and/or a great job more will be looked at and investigated, if not you don't matter and the police were not trained about anything. Happens even today. Love these old cases. Well done.
Love a bit of "Oddie" on a Sunday afternoon 👌 😀
Thank you! 😊
It's so so awfull 😪 Women was treated like trash... Especially the poor.. 😭 I just can't contain how tragic and sad it is!
We must know our past and learn from history , thank you for telling the story Oddie 🙏
So sad to say very little has changed on this subject when it comes to people's way of thinking.
I truly only wish the best for everyone but it would be interesting to see how these same people would think after everything they know and own is taken away from them and food still needs to be put on a park bench for kids to eat. Oh yeah where do you get the money to feed them now??
It's not the best analogy but I think it gets my point across.
Sadly a lot of women are still treated like trash.
@@miadahlblom3439 lots of women have been poor beyond hope and still never degraded or disrespected themselves. Street walkers often do not want to stop because it's fast money just like strippers don't want to stop. They do not want a regular job or they would get one. 🙄 lots of officers and government programs over the years to offer help they refuse. Lots of kids in foster care because of it. Solving a murder of a hooker is harder because of the random John's no known links.
Thanks, Oddie. You can bet she would have never guessed that you would be bringing her memory to life. 🤗❤️👍
😊 Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
@Jacky Flowers She could have no way of knowing our dear Oddie was ever going to exist, much less bring her dreadful-fated story to light so many decades later
Very interesting. And the newspaper stories were confusing. Thank you for the great video.
I appreciate that Judy, thank you so much for your positive feedback 🙏😊
Never bored Oddie. Although, I miss the spooky background music when hearing you narrate these ghastly stories.
Happy to hear that my friend!
Spooky music still has its place in my videos, just not all of them 😉
@@ObsoleteOddity Understood.👍🏾
Oddie, Great job. You never fail to impress me and others with your crime channel. Many cases I have never heard about before. Thank you! . 💚💚
😊 Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
I really like this scrolling through old news articles to uncover crime. It's quite interesting.
Superbly presented. You show, through microfiche, actual news reports which are indicative of someone proficient in actual research versus speculation. You obviously strive for accuracy, laying bare the nuts and bolts of the thing. I know integrity when it comes a-knockin'. I will be following your channel because yours is not a waste of my time.
I really appreciate that, thank you.
All the newspapers have been digitised at the National Library of Australia and are really easy to access. Just type Trove into your search engine. This is a very interesting story.
i love your stories and how you tell them
😊 Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
I like whatever you post so, my vote is you do what you feel when making a video.
I really appreciate that, thank you.
@@ObsoleteOddity oh no, THANK YOU! you have no idea what a calming and peaceful effect your voice style has had on me during these crazy times. Often have put your channel on loop at night. I would listen to you read a phone book. pretty sure you'd do some research and have a few good stories to share. : )
So kind of you, thank you very much.
@@ObsoleteOddity ❤
Oh yay! Just in time. I was just thinking of how much I enjoy your content and narration, I go to your channel and you've just posted very recently. You've made my day!
Thanks Oddie 😘💗

I appreciate that Tina, thank you so much for your positive feedback 🙏😊
You always present the most interesting stories.
😊 Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
Another incredibly interesting tale dear Oddie. There’s never a dull moment watching any of your content. Earlier today I had been researching the Mother’s of Darkness chateau and an older video of your came up in my search. I had already watched it when you first put it in years ago but it was well worth going back to rewatch your two part video on the chateau you visited and luckily i saw the post for this video because as usual CZcams hadn’t put it in any of my feed even though I’ve been a long time subscriber to your channel. Actually I believe your the first channel I ever subscribed to when I got involved with CZcams many years back. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into sharing your content with us. You deserve so much more of a following because you really have such a unique interesting channel. One day hopefully we’ll be in a better financial state so we can subscribe in your patreon but until then unfortunately we’ll be stuck having to catch you on here but I also realized today I’m going to have to do better about remembering to check your channel more frequently in order to make sure I don’t keep missing your latest uploads. Thank you again for all the hard work you and care you put into the content you share with us. You help bring so much enjoyment to many of us and I’ll never be able to thank you enough for that. I hope you are your family are all doing well. Stay safe and take care everyone. 👋🏻
P.s. Your watercolor was absolutely stunning. I love the house so much. At first I thought it was an older photo of the home. You did such a wonderful job on it. I have always loved painting with watercolor myself. Thank you for sharing it with us. It’s beautiful. Take care 👋🏻
Thank you for your really kind feedback and compliment my friend, so very much appreciated.
😊🙏
Thank you also for the compliment about the watercolour, yes I tried my hand at art way back then.
Thank you for bright pictures of the newspaper and street with an old car.I remember the falling apart newspaper.Oddie is never tired.Thanks
Just what I needed for this quiet Sunday Dear Oddie. It's my birthday tomorrow so this is the perfect early gift 😊
Happy birthday for tomorrow
Enjoy your Birthday!🎉🎈🎊🎂🍨
Hi Charlotte Happy Birthday and may your day be filled with Joy love and Happiness Friends and Family Millie from Massachusetts🎂🍰🎂🍰🎉🎈🎉🎈🍏🍁🍂🍃🍁🍂🍃
What a lovely month to have a birthday

Incredible watercolor!!! I love it! I enjoyed this format 😊
Thank you so much 😀
Love the pictures and text ❤️ can never be bored with your program....luv your narration too... and you have kept me company through all my surgeries and cancer treatment.Thank you,L. You kept me going 😃 thanks again!
That’s very kind of you, thank you.
So sorry to hear about the treatment you having to undergo, I hope you are fit and well soon.
I was pleased to see that the amazing Oddie uploaded another great case
That’s very kind of you Bobby, thank you very much 😊
*Obsolete Oddity Australian Vintage 1932 Sydney's Serial Killer appreciate your videos Oddity Listening from Mass USA TYVM 💙*
Nothing like Oddie stories on a lazy Sunday afternoon 💯❤️
Hope you enjoy it is, thank you!
It's the BEST!!
Hello, Thank you for sharing your oddities. My daughter is autistic and her and I watch and listen to you every chance we get. We both enjoy your works on history. To me crimes are also history. Peace and Love,
Angel Rose
Thank you so much for reaching out, very glad that your daughter and yourself are enjoying my videos, that’s great to hear!
Love looking at the old newspapers. It brings you right back to the time when it happened. At the beginning, a lot was made of the knotting technique, but it doesn't seem to have come up at trial. I would have thought that showing that the murderer knew about advanced knots and was able to tie them himself would have been an important link.
And you enjoyed it!
Yes I don’t know why either the knotting technique was not explained any further after that.
You do an amazing job at teaching us about these crimes. I know people who say "the world is such an evil place, what have we become?". Your videos demonstrate that human nature (positive and negative) was alive and well in the 1930s. And way before (from other videos). Being evil is not a new thing. Been around forever.
Thank you so much Caylene, that’s very kind of you - glad you enjoyed the presentation.
Yes nothing much has changed as far as Human Nature is concerned, we just have more media coverage of it - and of course more people in the world.
Good afternoon, Oddie! I hope you're doing well! Thank You!
Good morning!
A very pretty painting Oddie didn't realize you were artistic in that form, well done. Now I am never bored how you present your stories. It's rather interesting to see how each one gets presented. To the story:: for me too many loop holes, too many contradictions in people's interviews. Craig looks the likely suspect but whose to say he is the one. Very confusing like a few others I've seen. By the way heard y'all have bus trouble & costly as well--- the story about it was on the Science channel the other day..Hope it gets fixed looked awful dangerous! Stay safe❤
Thanks very much Sandra, glad you liked it!
Yes it was a rather confusing story and we’ll never know all the details as it is so old.
I don’t live in Australia now and haven’t done so for 23 years, so I’m not sure what the problems they are having with buses.
Wonderful story. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you :)
Love all your videos, many I still need to watch. 😊👍💛 I'd like to ask if you'd look into and perhaps do some nautical themed stories. Either shipwrecks, ghost stories, sirens, murders at sea, etc. I love anything nautical and just the way you add sounds and visuals, I think you'd do such a lovely job at nautical themed stories. 😁💛
Edit: And lighthouses... I live in Oregon and the Heceta Head Lighthouse is well known to be haunted and has fascinating stories surrounding it. A long history and so intriguing.
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊
@@ObsoleteOddity Thank you for responding sir, do you think you might do any nautical themed stories?
Hi oddie hope ur well love from Ireland x
I really appreciate that, thank you.
I've never heard of this case until now, and I enjoyed your presentation. I'm not sure Craig killed Bessie O'Connor. She gave me the impression, hurrying home after her swim and rushing out again, that she was going to meet somebody. I'd be interested to read the police file of her case and compare it to the other cases.
Thank you so much! 😊
I really enjoyed this. Yes please keep doing down the rabbit hole. 😊😊😊
I appreciate that Pamela, thank you so much for your positive feedback 🙏😊
beautiful picture you are very talented
Thank you! Cheers!
I love your story telling voice. I think you would do a wonderful job telling the tale of Dorothea Puente in Sacramento California. She was an awful killer in the 1980’s. I hope you look into it. Thank you and keep up the good work. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! Cheers!
OoF she's horrible!
Mrs Puente was a real piece of work wasn't she!
I grew up outside of Sacramento and remember seeing it on the news. I was a kid but it scared me. As a teen I saw the house,, I couldn’t believe how long her terror went on.
What an interesting but very confusing case indeed Oddie I couldn’t pinpoint innocence or not but I really enjoyed this video as always thank you Oddie for all that you do for us and looking forward to your next video ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊
Excellent, as always!
Thank you very much, much appreciated!
Happy Sunday Oddie!! Blessings!!!
Happy Sunday to you too my friend!
Great video, you did a fantastic job and I like seeing the old newspapers
Very much appreciated Kimberly!
I hope you're doing well Oddie Beau 😘
Ty for another awesome video ☺️
Thank you so much Jessica! 😊
@@ObsoleteOddity you're welcome hun
I enjoy the micro fiche. If and when I like I can pause and read beyond your narrative, but I listen to every word. And, I like the fact that microfiche tells us what was known at the moment of trial, plus there is historical value in observing societal changes from the era being focused on. Yes, more please.
Glad you’re enjoying the microfiche, yes it does give a very important insight into peoples mindset and values back then.
Cool story about where you lived. Would love to see more photos of the home. Wow
Glad you enjoyed it Dawn, thank you!
Thank you for another great story!! I’m already looking forward to the next 🌻
Thank you! 😊 Glad you enjoyed the presentation my friend!
Thankyou, please do more of these stories. I love them.
Glad you enjoyed it Emily, thank you for your feedback!
LOVE IT !!!! It would be more than interesting going through the years and the cases to do with this park.....It does have a notorious background and backdrop for underground activities since the early 1900s.....
Hello, Yes I thoroughly enjoy the newapaper clippings and additional commentary. I like discussing stories, mysteries and hearing what you think. I have been watching and being engrossingly enthralled since before you narrated them. The silent ones. Super creepy. Thank you for everything you and Oddette come up with.
I really appreciate your positive feedback - thank you very much :)
Heyyyy Oddie...I find these very interesting indeed.. chilling to think about what was going on at that time but history always repeats itself... anywho really enjoyed the trip down the rabbit hole I'd hope to hear more about these intriguing stories in due time my friend... great job as always.. smiles from America..
I’m happy to hear that Sharrie, thank you so much for your great feedback 😊😯
@@ObsoleteOddity you're so very welcome ☺️
This was another fascinating story, thank you Oddie! I did enjoy the format as well. Also, I found it curious at 13:06 in showing the map of possible connected murders that there is a Lucy Brown Craig found in 1940. I wonder if that was simply coincidence 🤔
Thank you Cindy, much appreciated!
Well spotted, interesting coincidence…or perhaps not 😮
I noticed that, too, & was wondering at the possible coincidence or if related.
Mid-week, whenever, whatever, how ever you want to share is perfect. That is quite the party house, painting gives a nice feeling, a man of many hats. Consider yourself hugged. 🤗
Glad you enjoyed it Nancy, and thank you for the lovely compliment
I like the microfiche backing up the story. Not boring to me at all!
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊
I really enjoy the trips down the rabbit hole 🤓🤠👍🏻
😊 Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
Just my second one on here.. woow love the way you dont just tell us the information but its as if you are right here with me, discussing it, your input. Taking us with you while you delve in to all the avenues. Looking forward already to others before i even finish this one.
Hope these cgannels continue.
That’s very kind of you, I appreciate your positive feedback 🙏😊
Small world! My family lived on Rainbow St Randwick. My grandmother would take us to the picture theater there before traveling down to Coogee for a swim. There was also a huge park with a hill on one side and a place nick-named 'The Spot' due to a circular motif on a shop facade-roof. I think it was a chemist shop.
It is indeed!
Many moons ago my sister lived on Rainbow Street South Coogee, yes I often went to the Ritz cinema at the spot, it’s still there. The sport is actually that whole area where the Ritz Cinema is.
Very nice painting you did, watercolors are really hard to do, glad you have some wonderful memories.🙂❤️
Thank you! Cheers!
I like any way you decide. I like when you read, and seeing the articles, and pictures.
I like your stories they're very interesting thanks for making them
Glad you enjoyed them, thank you for your feedback 🙏
I like it when u go through the newspaper, there is something about it, like my dad telling me stories from the paper as i sit on the ground playing with my toys.
Glad you enjoyed them, thank you for your feedback 🙏
Wow did he tell you about the murders? If there was a sex murder in the papers when I was a kid my parents spoke about it in cryptic terms so us kids couldn't understand. Very frustrating!
@@thedativecase9733 he did tell me about the murders and all that. He did it as a warning about going with strangers or going out and about on my own.
I do like it when you go through the newspaper. And the other stuff too
Thank you so much! 😊
Wow I had never heard of this case. Being that I am about to start my seventh decade I vote two thumbs up on this formate.❤️😃
I loved this format and really liked this and your traditional style.
Thanks for your very positive feedback - much appreciated 😊
Love the clippings it’s neat 😇 really neat to see the authentic sources
Glad you enjoyed it Jessica, thank you 🙏
Oh my dear Oddie we all certainly need a strong cup of tea after this one Totally amazing so very interesting enthralling very nice work mate
Very happy was to your liking Patricia, thank you so much for your kind feedback 😊🙏
I loved this video. I enjoyed the way you presented it with the articles and microfiche. Your painting is amazing, you're very talented!
Happy it was to your liking, thank you so much for your feedback 🙏
Thank you also for the lovely compliment about the painting, much appreciated 😊
Wow,this one is skillfully told,though disturbing!! Craig was beaten into a confession. I like the newspaper coverage.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Bravo Oddie. You’re the best and your voice is amazing. 👏☺️
That’s very kind of you Jen, much appreciated 😊🙏
Thanks for all you do to bring us these stories Oddie!💛🍺😎🍺
That’s very kind of you Valerie, and thank you so much for the donation, so much appreciated 🙏😊
@@ObsoleteOddity Your very welcome.
Thank you so much for uploading this video. It is helping me get through the pandemic!
Yes the old crimes from the microfiche.
Actually I'm just happy to be able to hear your voice. Any style you do is ok by me. 💜😊💂🎩👍👋.
Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
Loved it keep them coming
Thank you!
Hello, Oddie! Hope you have a great weekend! I'm watching again. Thank You!
Thanks! you too
I had not seen you lately, Oddie, but I'm so glad, My name is O'Connor, whoop, love your content
Glad you’re enjoying my content Pamela, much appreciated!
Oh wow I love how you made the faces move that was eery!
I found this presentation fascinating.
Thank you so much! 😊
I really like the usual formatting. Reading the articles is okay, but I prefer the way you enhance the stories with animation and photos.
The traditional format will always be a staple, but I just try different ideas from time to time.
You know what Oddie I love old news articles so I’m good with it
So glad you enjoyed the presentation - very much appreciated 😊
My dad was born in Redfern in 1920 & I think I should clarify something. Redfern in the roaring twenties was not a posh area. It was a very tough area due to gangs, and poverty. Squizzy Taylor and his kind, ran Redfern.
Thank you for making lesser known cases and yes, I would definitely like more videos like that.
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.
I'm really enjoying your stories and channel. I learned of you by Ron with Faces of the Forgotten. Your art work and brining those gone back to life is fascinating!
I’m very happy to hear that Sheryl, yes that’s great then Ron gave me a shout out, he’s a nice guy.
So glad you’re enjoying my presentations 😊
@@ObsoleteOddity I am enjoying ty so much
I found this fascinating.
So glad you enjoyed the presentation - very much appreciated 😊
I love this format. Very interesting!
Thank you 🙏
Fascinating albeit morbid history. I love crime stories and I would bet it was a serial killer. If the stories weren’t prominently featured on front page newspapers then the idea of a copycat or framing to look like the original killing is pretty far-fetched. Identical in how they were killed an found… etc. even the 25 years span is not incomprehensible. The man may have traveled around a lot. May be he killed in other places and back then there would have been really no way of linking crimes.
As a professional artist I have to say your painting is beautiful! Lovely job!!!❤
Glad you enjoyed it,
and thank you for the lovely compliment. 😊🙏
Hello, Australian here, I have lived in or near Sydney for most of my 61 years 😀...
Redfern is quite yuppie now, tho there are, as with all ( or most) places, not so nice patches..
I know nothing about this, and I like looking into and learning about Sydney's vintage crimes...
Thank you for doing this, it was fascinating and very enjoyable
Thanks for letting me know and thank you for your great feedback!
@@ObsoleteOddity Actually, the Everleigh Street environs of Redfern were completely refurbished in the late 1980s as a new comfortable housing estate for the indigenous community, within three years, most of the places were so severely damaged again as to be unlivable and many were demolished. I haven't really seen what has become of that area of Redfern since the mid 1990s, however there's been a lot of redevelopment elsewhere in Redfern and it has become more cosmopolitan and less of a slum.
It's a shame that women who used to walk the streets and ply their trade for survival have never been looked upon more kindly. Back when these women were doing this, women were often not welcome in the mainstream workforce and they might not have been able to find a man to marry them after the death toll of the First World War thinning out the numbers of available men and some of these women might not have had fathers who didn't die or become broken or maimed beyond the ability to work and support them, so there weren't a variety of options. Hopefully the image of those in this industry will improve over time as more people find acquaintances in the industry and realise that it's almost always the last resort after all other options for lucrative work have failed, for reasons too numerous to mention. I tend to think of the people in the industry as 'intimate pleasure technicians' (deserving of respect for the risks involved in the job), rather than the derogatory P word 😊
Hi 👋🏻 Oddie Beau, Odette & fur babies! I don’t know exactly what it is, but, without having ever used it myself in life, I have had a fascination with the whole microfiche thing. That easier scrolling through digitized photos of older, actually published newspapers and articles without the fear of ruining their preservation. Seeing accounts that were at the time of the incidents in many cases, though some might be from later years, revisiting. I don’t even mind that it’s newspaper photos that aren’t as lively as regular photographs. They have their own unique charm & you clearly can still animate them to a degree. Not sure why they are so satisfying to me, but it’s akin to being an archeologist that gets the artifact reward and knowledge without the messiness and tedium of an actual dig. Cataloguing has its own tedium, which is just fine. This is like that in that, it’s a more convenient search that still requires a lot of searching though not nearly as bad as it would be if you had to pour over actual old papers from different collections. The rabbit holes 🕳 🐇 are real, though, as one search begets so many others and different tidbits leading to still more. I happily jump down them all with you!
As for this case, specifically, I’m rather flummoxed. If the cases were so similar within such short time, I find the thought of a copycat murderer to be improbable. And how crazy would it be if it was a different killer(s) but the methods and similar specialized (though not unique) knots being present. It’s also a bit weird that the fellow admitted somewhat readily to the one killing (though spinning it as defensive) but vehemently denied the other, similar case. I know some lie about crimes, but it was curious. My thoughts on why are maybe because she was from a more prominent family and he didn’t want to be on the hook for what would be perceived as a “worse” crime to society and authorities (the reality being all lives are equal) plus/or the circumstances didn’t allow for him to have some kind of defensive excuse & maybe he thought he could wriggle more easily out of the one, but not the other, and never at all, if proven to be serial murders. Also, the account of the girl clinging to life when found (though another report just said she was found dead with no mention of last words) where she whispered Frank, twice, & it was never found who she meant or why. It is all confusing and casts some doubt. He, of course, could have told her a false name upon meeting, but the whole thing is mysterious. How I wish such old evidence could’ve been preserved in such a condition as to be put to DNA testing today! I want to KNOW so badly & also for family, generations later to have closure. Thank you, Oddie, for expanding the formats you present and always doing the stories justice.
I adore the watercolor! 😍 It gives off such a happy warm vibe! You can feel the happiness you had there in that environment. I’m sorry the parting had to happen and that the Lebanese family has passed on, but you gave them a piece of your spirit in that painting and they cherished it in their lives. Whenever I hear about average Lebanese people (meaning not political or famous, except maybe the guy who played Klinger on M.A.S.H.), they always have been wonderful, kind stories & it makes me very curious about their homeland and history/culture. I always love seeing your art & other personal adventures, places you’ve been. Thank you for sharing with us all.
Jamie Farr was from Toledo, Ohio. He was of Lebanese decent but American born. Toledo is also my hometown. We also have Gloria Steinem and Katie Holmes. John Lithgow lived here a bit in childhood but wasn't born here.
@@emeraldblue5291 Yes, I was aware of this regarding Jamie Farr. His family was still Lebanese. They don’t have to be straight outta Lebanon, though I’m sure he probably wasn’t as fully immersed in his culture, being born here, as if he’d have been growing up there in the home country. My only point in mentioning him was that I had said average, non political, non famous families/individuals, but then I remembered that I wanted to include the 1 famous Lebanese descended person I did know about. 😁 He seemed like a generally nice fellow, as well. The very few interviews I had seen where he made references to things that were Lebanese, be it food or have you, were always interesting to me. I also remember him talking about Toledo, though it’s been a very long time since I saw those snippets of interviews. 👍🏻
That's very kind of you, thank you for that Lora.
It seems that, yes, he's the culprit of those murders..
This presentation is as good as the others.. What's important for me is how you deliver the story.. 👍👍👍
This story is definitely intriguing.. Thanks, Oddie..
More power!
Thank you for your vote of confidence my friend, glad you enjoyed the presentation and thank you so much for your positive feedback.
More Aussie stories please
