Amazingly talented team of investigators! This murderer is a very evil and frightening man. Never let him out of prison. EVER!

[@gordonpeden6234]

18 years! What a joke? For a stone cold premeditated slaughter.

I love the Australian/New Zealand accent. That sing~songy way that they end their sentences like they are asking a question identifies their accent immediately 😆 Awesome 🥰

[@ennds4636]

Are you referring to when they say "tarpaulin?" The long word for tarp? Haha. I also like how they say "skeletal." 😊

[@MrsDrSpencerReid-h5o]

@@ennds4636 ~ Yup! Once they pronounced it more clearly, I deleted that part of my comment! 🤣 Some of the verbiage was hard for this American 🇺🇸 to figure out what they meant 😂

[@Luvpig]

​@@ennds4636l love how they even put sheep in their cars, "subaaaroo."

[@Karenanneseven]

Surely us Aussies don’t have an accent 😉. We say our r’s like the Boston’s in we don’t say our r’s. 😏. Thanks for liking how we sound…although similar to the New Zealanders they pronounce their i’s like u’s. Aussies pronounce fish & chips “fish & chips” & NZ pronounce the same word as “fush & chups”. Of course there are other subtle differences. 🫶

The videos on this channel are top-notch, just really great content. Happy New Year from Texas, and thank you so much for all the great videos!

[@smugandsmarmy]

I have never heard the word Subaru pronounced like that! It’s both jarring and kind of endearing!

[@roygeorge5364]

Hahahaha. We feel that way when we hear Americans pronounce Hyundai - that's jarring and weird, but kinda endearing too. 😂 Enjoy your day mate.

[@CourtneyTunbridge79]

Or when they say Nissan, it's like they are saying Kneeson. I don't think I've ever heard an American say Subaru so I'll have to watch out for how they say that now too 😂

[@naughtyskyline]

considering its a japanese word, they pronounced it pretty close to its original pronunciation!

[@naughtyskyline]

[@roygeorge5364]

@@CourtneyTunbridge79 yeah, Nissan is another one that sounds wrong to our southern ears when others pronounce it. I've never heard the actual pronunciation of it tho, so I'm not going to insist that our way is correct, but it is an I and not an E, so who knows.

[@jadexjade]

Love these videos. Also love the way these men pronounce "Subaru"

[@randibgood]

I was thinking that must be what they were saying.

[@maestrovso]

I kept thinking I heard blue Sparrow 🐦until I saw the car. It is fun to listen to English speaking ascents from all over the world to hear different pronunciations.

[@Karenanneseven]

Even though I’m Australian, I watch so many stories based in America or Canada it seems strange to hear a NZ or Aussies accents. 😌. New Zealand is a beautiful country. I’ve visited the north island & looking forward to seeing the south. Btw…great detective & forensic work 👌

[@PamelaGlasgow-ll5ur]

And it’s beautiful and the country is beautiful 👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣 , I think the same way about my country people and language 🙏🤣🤣🤣👍

@@PamelaGlasgow-ll5ur Scotland is a beautiful country. I visited my grandfathers place of birth Dumbarton plus the east coast.

[@CourtneyTunbridge79]

Ikr, I'm Australian too, and I get thrown when I hear our accent pop up on YT or a crime show on here, idk why but it just throws me. Sending hi's from Sydney ❤

[@CourtneyTunbridge79]

​@@PamelaGlasgow-ll5urI would love so much to visit Scotland, I love that cold, rainy, damp weather also, but everything I have ever seen and heard about Scotland just makes me want to go. ❤❤❤❤

[@lilmisskiss692003]

I get tired of watching American true crime. Probably doesn't help that my city is high crime itself. anyway, i prefer UK history and UK/NZ/AUS true crime 😄

[@Kooks-bt1hh]

I moved to Wellington in 2011 and never heard this story. Saying that there are some truly dodgy characters , lots of gangs. Mongrel mob is one of them , I honestly thought it was a joke at first, then I spotted one! Had to laugh as they look truly terrifying, laughing was the only response !

[@veronicasaavedra4856]

I’m appalled at the amount of evidence he left behind

[@alysoneaston5539]

I'm delighted 😊

[@Geisla54]

"'Da popo don't know nada,' -- well this didn't prove to be true." HAHAHA

[@Karenanneseven]

It sounded so weird coming from the popo 😌

[@blondesmommy]

But it did actually prove to be true because the double negatives in the sentence meant the po-po DO know something.

[@cathybassett6432]

They were "pretty sure this was a homicide." What a ridiculous statement.

[@aldinlee8528]

Gruesome.

They pronounce House more like Has!

[@freedomfirst5557]

Great episode but there is only one thing. I don't like watching documentaries from New Zealand and Australia because they issue very lenient jail terms.

[@maestrovso]

Unfortunately it is not just Australia and NZ. It is a trend across all progressive democratic countries. US often issues more ridiculous low level of punishments.
