Edhouse: Father & son bonded by blood

Blood, violence and death seem to follow the name Edhouse.  Father and son Andrew and Robert are both bikies and linked to a string of gruesome crimes – including the disappearance of Kalgoorlie woman Lisa Govan. Andrew Edhouse, one of WA’s most notorious bikies in the late 90s,  was a member of one of the “most secretive” bikie clubs in Australia - the Club Deroes. In the late 1990s Perth was in the grip of a war between the Club Deroes and the Coffin Cheaters. One casualty was Coffin Cheater Marc Chabriere, shot dead in his car in Welshpool. Edhouse was accused of his murder but later found not guilty. The son, Robert Edhouse was also a bikie - the Perth leader of a group called Aryan Nations. The neo-nazi was convicted along with his lover Melanie Attwood of the brutal murder of her ex-partner Alan Taylor in 2016. A crime Harvey describes as “full metal psycho behaviour”. The West Australian's chief reporter and Up Late host Ben Harvey joins host Tim Clarke to explore the violent worlds of two members of one family, which collided in one shocking courtroom outburst.  And could come together again before a coroner in a few short months.  For all the latest on courts and crime visit thewest.com.au.
