One of Sydney’s most stubborn cold cases could yet be solved.
In 1975, the newspaper publisher and activist Juanita Nielsen disappeared.
She was a high profile figure whose work campaigning against developments in the Kings Cross neighbourhood of Sydney brought her to the attention of some of Australia’s most notorious criminals.
For four-and-a-half decades, the truth about her death has remained a mystery, but a new piece of evidence might change that.
Today on The Signal, documentary-maker Keiran Mcgee has been piecing together the last few days of Juanita Nielsen’s life for the ABC podcast, Unravel.
We’re sitting down with her to hear about an extraordinary breakthrough she’s uncovered.
