When Karmein Chan remains were found in a shallow grave, Melbourne’s worst fears were confirmed — the child taken from her home had been murdered. In episode two, Adam Shand follows the creation of the Spectrum Task Force as police began linking a string of terrifying home invasions, abductions and sexual assaults to one unknown offender. But as investigators compared the cases, a darker question emerged: were they hunting one monster, or had several predators been folded into the myth of Mr Cruel?

In the dead of night, a masked man broke into family homes across Melbourne and abducted young girls from their bedrooms. Some were returned hours later. One, 13-year-old Karmein Chan, never came home alive. In episode one, Adam Shand goes back to the first abduction police linked to Mr Cruel and asks whether the hunt for one monster may have blinded investigators to the truth.

For more than 30 years, the name Mr Cruel has haunted Melbourne.
He was meticulous, terrifying and seemingly vanished without a trace — leaving behind one of Australia’s most disturbing unsolved crime mysteries. But in this gripping six-part investigation, Adam Shand uncovers secret forensic evidence that challenges everything police thought they knew about the case.
Across the series, we revisit the abductions, the fear that gripped suburban Melbourne, the assumptions that shaped the investigation, and the hidden evidence that may overturn them all.
Was Mr Cruel really the offender police believed they were hunting or has the truth been buried in the evidence all along???See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
