Shortcut: What Happened to Shirley Butler on Christmas Eve 1952?

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.   Shirley Butler, a 21 year old woman, was found dead just metres from her home in Waverton on Christmas Day 1952.   Detectives launched an intense hunt for answers and even staged a world first radio re enactment of her final tram ride, while the press hinted that police were holding back key details.   Nearly six months later, a dramatic arrest made headlines, but the revelations that followed proved even more astonishing.   You can subscribe to Forgotten Australia here on Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.   We're excited to announce the release of Sherele Moody's new podcast, She Matters.
