Hedley Thomas Is Searching For Bronwyn
True Crime Conversations
Shownotes Transcript
The disappearance of Bronwyn Winfield was barely covered by the media in 1993.
It took 11 days for her husband Jon Winfield to report her as missing after that Sunday night. Very little was done in the way of a police investigation in those early days, in fact it would be years until her case was actually taken seriously.
A coronial inquest nearly a decade later determined that Bronwyn had likely been murdered. It went as far as recommending Jon be prosecuted - but that never happened.
Hedley Thomas's podcast The Teacher's Pet helped to solve the disappearance of missing mother Lynette Simms - formerly known as Lynette Dawson. Now, in his latest investigation, he's hopeful of getting some answers for Bronwyn’s family.
