In this hit investigative podcast, Ryan Wolf investigates some of Australasia's most enduring unsolved criminal cases.
Season Four
On the night of 9th November 1996, Alana Cecil, who had only recently turned 16, was excited to attend the Djerriwah Bonfire Festival in the small city of Melton, just out of Melbourne in Victoria, Australia. When she left home that night it would be the last time her family would ever see her alive. Sometime in the early hours of November 10th 1996, someone or some people took a syringe and injected Alana Cecil twice, once in each arm, with a lethal dose of Heroin. They then dumped her body in the back driveway of a vacant home. Eight years later a DNA breakthrough identified the semen of two men on and in Alana's body. One being a 49 year old man known to Police, who when questioned by Police simply answered 'No Comment'.
Neither these men, nor anyone else has ever been held accountable or responsible for Alana's death. And neither men have been able to offer a valid reason their DNA was present.
For 28 years Alana's family have fought for answers, and justice for Alana. Now through this podcast we're hoping that with your help those responsible for her death will finally get what they deserve.
In Season Four of GUILT - The Night of the Bonfire, Ryan heads Down Under, to Melbourne Australia to search for the truth. What happened to Alana Cecil?

In April of 1989 two Swedish tourists, Heidi Paakkonen and Sven Urban Hoglin disappeared without a trace only days before they were due to leave New Zealand.
Despite no bodies being found, David Wayne Tamihere was convicted of their murders. In October of 1991 Urban’s body was discovered 70km away from where the New Zealand Police said it should be, when it was discovered up a forest road in Parakiwai, near Whangamata.
Yet despite this contradictory new evidence and the eventual discovery that a key witness had committed perjury, David Tamihere was not successful in his appeals and served 21 years before being paroled in 2010.
To this day Tamihere has always maintained his innocence, that he never met the Swedish couple, and he certainly never murdered them.
It was almost one year ago, in December of 2023 that I released the final official episode of Season three of GUILT - Finding Heidi. This episode was the last in what had been an eight month investigation by myself to try and get to the truth, and more importantly to try and find Heidi.
Since the release of that episode my work has not stopped, in fact it has amplified, as I’ve worked with the New Zealand Police to ensure that fresh evidence I’ve uncovered has been actioned appropriately with one final goal in mind, to find Heidi.
Over this series of episodes which I’m calling Finding Heidi - Part Two Endgame, you’re going to hear the story of this year’s work, and how it led to a recent event, which I believe is the most important development in this case in 30 years..
Everything you’re going to hear is new, and has never been heard before.
And by the end, this case will never be the same again.
