FORENSICS | A Meatball Murder Plot?

Does your family have a favourite recipe, a meal that feels like home? For Mario, that was his wife’s famous spaghetti and meatballs. But one evening, what should have been a comforting dish left him feeling... uneasy. And then, it happened again and again. Was it just a bad batch—or something far more sinister? In this episode, meet John Franceschini, a forensic chemist with over 30 years of experience in private labs. Outside the reach of police or government, he uncovers the truth about what's really on our plates, and in our drugs.  Join host Kathryn Fox and dive into not one, but two cases of alleged food poisoning, the elusive dangers of synthetic drugs, and why independent forensic labs may be the last line of defense in the search for truth.
