adelaide oval abduction: Family Ties

Sleepers returns after a few weeks away, and it doesn’t ease back in.In Family Ties, brothers Mark and Stephen Marshall confront memories that have followed them since childhood. One recalls being lifted onto his brother’s shoulders and told to look inside what was called Poppa’s Jail. The other, decades later, faces that memory.Interviewed by Bryan Littlely, their accounts are raw, fragmented, and deeply unsettling, not because of what they claim, but because memory, denial, and family silence collide.This episode sets the tone for Season Two: quieter, darker, and driven by testimony that refuses to stay buried.We’ve been away over Christmas, but we haven’t been idle.More interviews.More voices.More threads are already pulling tight.This is only the beginning.⚠️ Content warning: This episode discusses child sexual abuse and trauma.
