More than eleven years after Eden Westbrook’s death, Jason and Amanda are still fighting for answers. In this special crossover episode with Badge of Betrayal, we look at where Eden’s case stands today, the push to have it reopened, the coronial reform process and the involvement of former senior Tasmanian police officer Paul Reynolds. We also return to the police records from the night Eden died — uncovering calls, movements and witness accounts that raise new questions about what was happening in St Helens before and after Eden was found. The question remains: do we really know what happened to Eden that night? Support Our Independent Storytelling on Patreon here  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

***This episode contains strong language and discusses themes that may be confronting for some listeners.We’ve chosen to include these moments as they were said, because they reflect the raw emotion and reality of what this family has experienced.” It’s been more than a decade since Eden’s death but for her family, nothing about this has settled. In this episode, we return to Jason and Amanda as they open up about where things stand today  from building a new home with their own hands, to the ongoing toll of rumours, online attacks, and a community that remains deeply divided. You’ll hear the anger that still sits just beneath the surface… frustration at misinformation, at people questioning their story, and at a system they believe still hasn’t delivered answers. At the same time, there are moments of strength of rebuilding, of family, and of a refusal to be silenced after all these years. This is a raw and unfiltered conversation about what it’s like to keep going… when the truth still feels out of reach.

Trigger Warning:This episode contains discussion of suicide, death, child abuse, and investigative failures. Listener discretion is advised. Forensic pathologist Dr. Byron Collins returns with a preliminary report into the death of Eden Westbrook — and raises serious concerns. Despite decades of experience, Dr. Collins says he’s never seen a case where critical evidence like autopsy photos has been withheld to this extent. In this episode, he questions the original cause of death, highlights unusual injuries, and outlines key procedures that were missed — including the failure to take genital swabs or thoroughly examine the scene. Working pro bono for the Westbrook family, Dr. Collins makes one thing clear: this case needs to be reinvestigated. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two individuals have come forward independently with allegations that another police officer is a pedophile. Larry (not his real name) mentions four people who have made similar allegations. Meanwhile, Christine, who served as a civilian in the police force, speaks about her experiences with disgraced pedophile cop Paul Reynolds. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
