Killer Charm | Ep 2 | Muffin

Over summer, the Secrets we Keep feed brings you Killer Charm, a LiSTNR award-winning series from investigative journalist Tara Cassidy.

When a Queensland man was found dead after falling into a woodchipper in 2017 It looked like a tragic industrial accident.

In reality it was planned – a murder orchestrated by his ex-partner, a grandmother from suburban Queensland.

In this episode, Tara Cassidy speaks to those closest to the grandmother, who was now one of the police’s main murder suspects. Tara unravels the different sides Sharon presented to people, and starts to see some patterns in her behaviour, especially around money and men.

All people convicted of murder related to this case have lodged to appeal the outcomes. The appeals are expected to be heard and handed down in 2026.

The Secrets we Keep feed will bring you new investigations and stories in January 2026.
