from The Veil - A True Crime Podcast with Ryan Wolf
In the final chapter of Murder in the Pacific, The Veil leaves the islands for the mountains of Papua New Guinea — and the Black Cat Track. In September 2013, a guided trekking party was ambushed at a remote jungle camp. The story made headlines as an attack on eight foreign hikers, but the truth lay with the men carrying their bags. Three porters died; others were maimed for life. Ryan Wolf examines the chilling forensic detail that rewrites the case — why the foreigners were struck with the flat of the blade, and the porters with its edge. Nothing here was hidden. Except from us.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.
