Australian Gospel - Part One

from Australian True Crime Hosted by Bravecasting

Lech Blaine was ten years old when his family was located by Australia's most notorious stalkers. Religious fanatics, Michael and Mary Shelley had been convicted multiple times by then of harassing politicians, religious figures and private citizens all over the world. They were particularly interested in the Blaine's because they were fostering three of the Shelly's biological children. Lech Blaine is now one of our country's brightest young writing talents, and telling his family's incredible story in a new book called Australian Gospel. In part one of this two part edition of Australian True Crime, we learn about the backgrounds of the families and the beginnings of the Shelley's rampage around the globe.
