November Patreon: The Moorhouse Murders

From October 6 to November 10, 1986, David and Catherine Birnie abducted, tortured, raped, and murdered 4 women in Perth, Australia. Twenty-two year old Mary Neilson, 15-year-old Susannah Candy, 31-year-old Noelene Patterson, and 21-year-old Denise Brown. 17-year-old Kate Moir, who was also abducted by the couple, barely escaped, saving her own life. Thanks to her bravery, these horrible monsters were finally brought to justice.
