Show Notes
Almost halfway between Adelaide in SA and Melbourne in VIC is a small seaside town called Portland. It's a quaint coastal haven, steeped in history, normally a calm and picturesque place. But in May of 1991, Portland was rocked by the gruesome double murder of two women in a hair salon. The crime would leave citizens scared and wondering if the killer was one of their own...
Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the twisting, unsolved case of the Portland Hair Salon Murders.
