*Synopsis | The Science of Murder (2024)*
What are we to do when science reveals information we don’t really want to know? Block our ears and look away, or confront it? This is the challenge in the case of Robert Farquharson, one of Australia’s most despised criminals. On Father’s Day in 2005, supposedly in an act of revenge against his ex-wife, he drowned their three young sons. The little boys, aged 10, seven and two, were passengers in their father’s car when he drove it into a dam. At two trials, Farquharson was convicted of murder for his crimes and sentenced to life in prison. But now, as Nick McKenzie reports, new scientific evidence raises serious questions about what really happened.
