The Claremont Murders on Channel 7 – How the Claremont killer was caught. Don’t miss the gripping conclusion to The Claremont Murders this Monday on Seven and 7plus
Sarah. Jane. Ciara. Three young women who went out one night and never came home, setting off the biggest unsolved murder case in West Australian history.
The gripping story of how the Claremont killer was caught is revealed in part two of The Claremont Murders, 9.00pm this Monday on Channel 7 and 7plus.
Almost a decade after Taskforce Macro was disbanded, a new generation of detectives has quietly re-opened the case with renewed focus: no more “convenient suspect”, just follow the evidence. This time they are going to get their man.
Thanks to advances in technology, the police find the killer’s DNA on a never-before-tested scrap of fingernail. They discover the Claremont serial killer has struck before, but this time his victims lived to tell the tale. Now they just have to find him.
When the police finally arrest Bradley Robert Edwards (Ryan Johnson, How To Please A Woman, Doctor Doctor), no one can believe it. The man responsible for these horrific crimes is a loving husband and stepfather, a knockabout suburban tradie. Now he is on trial for three murders, in the longest and most expensive trial in WA history.
