About this Episode
Retired Victorian Homicide Detective Charlie Bezzina joins us to discuss his connection to Nicola Gobbo, also known as Informer 3838.
Gobbo, a high-profile lawyer with underworld clients, was also a police informant.
While it's disputed who in Victoria Police knew about Gobbo's informant status, it's clear that homicide squad leaders were unaware.
Charlie Bezzina, on call on May 16, 2004, when Terrence and Christine Hodson were found executed in their Melbourne home, was kept in the dark about crucial information. It wasn't until years later that Charlie discovered why he felt like he had one arm tied behind his back during the investigation.
On this episode of Australian True Crime, Charlie shares the story of the Hodson murders, the case that changed his life and career.
