This week, in a tip-of-the-cap to her growing band of Tip-Sters in Australia, Melissa focuses on one of the most agonizingly maddening murder mysteries our brethren Down Under still have no answers for - the 1980-1981 killings of six women in the southeastern suburbs of Melbourne.\\xa0\\xa0Known simply as the Tynong North and Frankston Murders (based on the two locations where the bodies of the victims were found and the general areas in which they lived), the six slayings were originally treated as two separate serial killer matters.\\xa0 Six women - aged as young as 14 and as elderly as 75 - three in each of the two areas - fell to the killer or killers in a less-than-two-year period.\\xa0 And then they simply stopped.\\xa0 Was it because police had focused on the identity of someone they pegged to all six murders but just couldn't formally pin them on him - and he was disciplined enough to end his spree?\\xa0 Join Melissa as she digs in to the tragedy and crazy-making details of these still-unsolved crimes - and the now-85 year-old devout Christian gentleman who may - or may not - hold the key that would unravel the entire mystery.
