CLAREMONT: The Grim Discovery
Notes de l’épisode
On August 3, 1996 - 55 days after 23-year-old child care worker Jane Rimmer went missing, a woman picking flowers with her family found her body.
She immediately told her husband who rushed for help.
Jane’s body was badly decomposed, covered in leaves and small shrubs.
Meanwhile a couple riding horses nearby found a knife on the ground not too far away.
When they reached the woman who found the body, she told them she had stayed with Jane because “she didn’t want to leave her alone.”
We heard a witness break down on the stand today as she recalled that day Jane’s body was found.
We also heard from the woman who could be one of the last people to see Ciara Glennon alive on March 14,1997.
During her testimony, for the first time, we heard about the police investigation and the man who was the prime suspect, subjected to years of being watched by police, pretty obviously as well.
As Alison Fan - the only journalist to interview Lance Williams while he was a suspect - explained, as soon as she finished talking to him, she called the Assistance WA Police Commissioner and told him they had the wrong guy.
Join Natalie Bonjolo, Tim Clarke and Alison Fan as they wrap up week three of the Claremont Serial Killings Trial.
