Maria James

In 1980, Maria James was found murdered in her Melbourne, Australia residence. 38-year-old Maria owned a bookshop in Thornbury, and her home was in the back of the shop. Maria was on the phone with her ex-husband when, suddenly, the call went silent. Her ex rushed over to find her dead.

Join Mike and Gibby as they travel to Australia to discuss the mysterious murder of Maria James. The police investigation into Maria's murder has been heavily scrutinized over the years. Persons of interest were cleared with what turned out to be evidence from a completely different case. It also came out later that one of Maria's sons told her that he was molested by two priests at the church across from their home. There were witnesses who saw someone running from the scene, a number of persons of interest over the years, so why has this case never been solved?
