2:15

2011 a tragedy unfolded along the

2:17

banks of a quiet suburban creek

2:20

in Melbourne, Australia. Emergency

2:22

services for hello, where do you need the police?

2:25

I think I've seen what looks like a dead

2:27

body in... Where? In the

2:29

creek was a body of a

2:31

young adult female clad in a pink

2:33

dressing gown. He assumed that she just threw

2:35

a robe off and just threw in the

2:38

water, but little did he know that that

2:40

was actually her lifeless body. Police

2:42

were quick to rule out any

2:44

suspicious circumstances, while others weren't so

2:46

sure. I mean it was a very very

2:48

good swimmer. We'd gone to the beach, we'd

2:50

gone to the pools. You cannot just look

2:52

at a body and say, oh they drowned

2:54

or no they did drown. It's based on

2:56

the circumstances. Her death is a

2:59

case you've never heard of before, but

3:01

her life is a story you'll

3:03

never forget. I kept the

3:05

time on my lesson mum. Be careful going

3:07

there, because one day you know you might

3:09

decide to not want to come back. Or

3:11

for living conditions and he will just

3:13

give her food like she was a prisoner. They

3:16

were big tough guys though, they looked really mean,

3:18

but they wanted to help her. As

3:20

a fresh investigation into her death

3:22

begins, startling revelations come to light.

3:25

I collected a female from the Melbourne airport, she

3:27

was upset and crying. I'm looking at her lungs

3:29

right now, and her lungs? Aha!

3:31

Never once in my life have I

3:34

ever rang anyone and offered him drugs.

3:36

Is that ridiculous? It is like to

3:38

say that this case is consistent with

3:40

drowning. This is not love or kindness

3:42

or respect. We've got you. I'm Julia

3:45

Robson and this is

3:47

Troubled Waters, a case I'll

3:49

present production.
