Laura Richards and Lisa Zambetti continue their interview with Melissa Moore, the daughter of Keith Jespersen, whose terrible moniker was “The Happy Face Killer”.
He murdered at least 8 women during the early 1990s and at least one victim, Daun, survived.
Melissa talks about the difficult meeting with Michelle, Taunja Bennett’s sister, her discussions with her father about killing the victims and the impact it’s had on her life and family.
We ask the difficult questions about what was going on behind closed doors and whether were there any warning signs that he was a danger to women and girls?
We re-balance the narrative by talking about the victims, honouring their names and lives, remembering them and learning from their deaths:
