E02 | The Backpacker Murderer - Ivan Milat

In this episode of The Veil, we journey deep into the shadow cast by Australia’s most infamous serial killer: Ivan Milat, the Backpacker Murderer. Between 1989 and 1992, seven young travelers vanished along the Hume Highway, their bodies later uncovered in Belanglo State Forest. What began as isolated missing persons cases became one of the nation’s darkest criminal investigations, exposing a predator who turned the bush into his hunting ground.This is not just the story of a killer, but of the young lives stolen, the families left searching for answers, and the haunting legacy of Belanglo. As we pull back the veil, we confront the darkness hidden in plain sight — and the chilling reminder that sometimes, evil wears the most ordinary face.While some dramatic license is taken during the retelling of these stories, but you can be sure that these true crime stories are all based 100% on real events and facts.If you would like to suggest a case, you can message us via our website at www.brevityplus.comSubscribers get ad free listening to The Veil and all of our podcasts.
