Episode 300: The Backpack Murderer Ivan Milat

Australian truck driver Ivan Milat grew up as one of 14 children
who were well-known among local law enforcement. After spending
time in and out of jail for burglaries and other petty crimes, he
escalated. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, several hitchhikers
and backpackers in New South Wales went missing. But when bodies
started turning up in the Belanglo State Forrest, police determined
they had a serial killer on their hands. Book: Outback Outlaw: The
