ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Through time psychopaths have lived amongst us. But there are psychopaths and then there is Australia's Vince O'Dempsey. Currently in prison for life for three murders, and charged with another, he has self-confessed to thirty-three killings. On the serial killer pop charts thirty-three victims puts him way above the Milwaukee cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer, on a level-pegging with the Killer Clown, John Wayne Gacy, and just a fraction behind the infamous Ted Bundy. In this podcast series, author and journalist Matthew Condon, pieces together the story of his victims over half a century. We talk to men and women who were close to him - family, workmates, fellow gangsters - and survived his evil. Gang members and criminals who worked shoulder to shoulder with Vince finally speak out about the killer in their midst. And we will search deep into wild bushland for that unholiest of Grails - Vince O'Dempsey's mythical private graveyard, where his many victims rest. Episode 1 of Ghost Gate Road will launch in November 2020.
