S2 EP14 WHAT'S HIDING IN VINCE'S GARAGE?

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.
