About this episode

This episode reveals key details from the Irma Palasics murder investigation that the jury did not hear.

An undercover trip to Hungary was a key part of the Irma Palasics murder investigation – and just one of the things the jury never heard about. In this episode, Elizabeth Byrne and James Vyver reveal some of the most fascinating parts of the case that we weren't able to discuss until after a verdict was delivered. If you have any questions for Liz, James or Stocky you'd like answered in future episodes, please email thecaseof@abc.net.au . The Case Of is the follow-up to the hit podcast Mushroom Case Daily, and all episodes of that show will remain available in the back catalogue of The Case Of.
