CONmunity Podcast

How can a 10-year-old girl be murdered, and then have her family spend years fighting to have her name and story heard? Her name was Bridgette “Biddy” Porter. She was creative, funny, kind and full of life. She loved writing poetry, making videos and dreaming about her future. On 8 July 2020, Biddy was murdered in New South Wales, Australia. But what followed raised deeply troubling questions about the justice system, victims' rights and the legal restrictions that left her family believing they couldn't publicly share her name, her face or her story. Now, her family is determined that Biddy will never be forgotten. We're sharing this special trailer from WATCHING TWO DETECTIVES — SEASON 6: BIDDY, a new seven-part investigative series from Sarah Ferris Media. Former NSW homicide detectives Peter Hogan and Scott Rogan sit down with Biddy's parents, loved ones, advocates and those who helped bring her story into the public eye. This is not simply a story about a child's murder. It's about the life she lived, the people who loved her and one family's extraordinary fight to ensure that other victims and their families have a voice. 🎧 WANT TO HEAR THE FULL SERIES?

You know those moments when you think you’ve reached the end of the story… …and then someone opens a dusty cardboard box and you realise you’re actually just getting started? This episode begins not in Thailand.Not on WhatsApp.Not in a bar with a man in full Admiral whites. It begins in a garage. Specifically, retired detective and criminologist Professor Vince Hurley’s garage. Inside? Old case files. Notes. Clippings. Things packed away but never quite forgotten. The kind of paperwork that doesn’t shout… it just waits. And when we start going through those boxes together, something becomes very clear: Patterns don’t disappear.They just gather dust. In this episode of The BADmiral, we step back in time. We look at what was known, what was said, what was documented — long before this podcast existed. We explore how experienced investigators think, how instincts form, and why sometimes your gut is simply pattern recognition catching up with you.

⚓️ S2 | E13 — X MARKS THE SPOT What happens after the season airs? In this episode, Sarah Ferris returns to The BADmiral with new developments and reflections that surfaced once the main investigation was already out in the world. As more people came forward and new information emerged, this episode explores what becomes visible in the aftermath — why accountability is often elusive, why many people never report what they’ve experienced, and why uncovering a potential con can feel like trying to catch smoke with your hands. This is not an episode about declaring guilt.It’s about what surfaces once belief collapses, and what the system does — or doesn’t — do next. With thanks to Alex Turner‑Cohen for her journalistic input and contribution to this episode. While this episode sits outside the main arc of the season, the conversation isn’t over. Subscribers will receive additional bonus content, continuing the discussion and expert insight raised throughout The BADmiral.
