On March 31st 1993, on the set of The Crow, it was just another day at work for 28 year old actor Brandon Lee. Until it wasn’t. Just like the recent Rust controversy, there was an incident with a prop gun that went horribly wrong. So what happened that day? Who was Brandon Lee? How did he die? And what has been his legacy? Listen now! 

Michelle follows with a look at the tragic life and death of musical icon, Karen Carpenter. With a voice as smooth as the satin she wore on stage, she was half of The Carpenters, the brother sister duo behind some of the greatest hits of the 70s. Yet unbeknownst to the world, Karen was struggling with a little-known disorder called anorexia nervosa. Listen now to hear about her life, career and heartbreaking death.

The post 42: GAWN TOO SOON: The tragic deaths of Brandon Lee and Karen Carpenter appeared first on Eavesdroppin' Podcast.

In 2014 in Western Australia, Amy Wensley had a fight with her partner, called her mum to say she and her two young daughters were fleeing the family home and she’d see her soon. Fifteen minutes later, Amy was dead. In this week’s chilling episode, Michelle looks at the heartbreaking case of Amy Wensley. Why did the police classify it as a suicide? How could Amy have pulled the trigger of a shotgun if she was sitting on her trigger hand? And why was the last pic on her camera-roll a selfie of her holding the shotgun? Listen now to hear how this case played out…

Geordie follows with the mysterious case of Gabe Watson and Tina Thomas. When the Alabama pair married in October 2003, their honeymoon 11 days later was meant to be the scuba-diving trip of a lifetime – except the dive went wrong and Tina paid with her life. Simple accident? Or was foul play involved? A five-year investigation, a coronial inquest and two criminal trials later, along with 16 different accounts from Gabe of what happened that day, paint a different story. Listen now and let us know what you think happened.
