47 years ago, on a warm summer\\u2019s night in Melbourne, Susan Bartlett and Suzanne Armstrong were stabbed to death in their home in Easey Street, Collingwood. Suzanne\\u2019s 16 month-old son was asleep in his cot at the time.
\\n
\\nThe double homicide left the community shocked and detectives rattled, as several promising early leads gradually petered out. Eventually, the case went cold.
\\n
\\nTo this day, the Easey Street murders is still one of Australia\\u2019s most confronting cold cases: a frenzied crime shadowed by strange twists of fact and fate. A million-dollar reward for information has failed to lead to an arrest, no one has ever been charged, and critical questions remain unanswered. Did the young women know their killer, or did they die in a brutal, random attack? Why has their murderer never been found?
\\n
\\nJournalist Helen Thomas has been investigating Susan and Suzanne\\u2019s deaths for more than a decade, initially for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation\\u2019s Background Briefing programme and then for her book, Murder On Easey Street. Now Helen has delved into the case again for a brand new, original podcast made for Casefile Presents.\\xa0
\\n
\\nIn Casefile Presents: The Easey Street Murders, Helen explores the crime and the investigation that followed. She speaks with the young women\\u2019s family and friends, potential witnesses living in Easey Street who were never interviewed by detectives \\u2013 and the retired police who were first at the crime scene in January, 1977 and remained haunted by it even now.
