Show Notes
Renowned psychic medium Jonathan Mark returns to the podcast for an extraordinary conversation. Jonathan has helped to solve countless crimes and missing persons cases, working with the FBI and law enforcement across the US. In this episode, he tunes into a case that has haunted so many of us here in Australia, for decades.
In this episode, we revisit the infamous unsolved murder of Karmein Chan, the 13-year-old Melbourne schoolgirl abducted from her home in 1991 and explore the chilling connection to the predator known as Mr Cruel. Active through the late 1980's and early 1990's, Mr Cruel was responsible for a series of terrifying home invasions, child abductions, and assaults that left Australia on edge and sparked one of the country’s largest criminal investigations.
Karmein’s case remains one of Australia’s most haunting cold cases, and for me, it’s a story that has lingered since childhood. With Jonathan’s remarkable intuitive abilities, we explore possible new insights into a mystery that has baffled police and the public for more than 30 years.
If you’re interested in true crime in Australia, cold cases, or the enduring mystery of Mr Cruel, this is a must-listen episode.
