Someone, somewhere, knows something. Almost 38,000 missing people are reported to police every year in Australia; that’s one every 14 minutes. Some do not return home. For their families, it’s a never-ending nightmare. For police, the search for answers can sometimes last for decades.
The Missing Australia exists to change this. Presented by former police officer Meni Caroutas, it aims to break new ground on these cold cases – because there’s always someone out there who knows what happened to a missing person.
The challenge is to find them.

Former Detective Paul Gordon speaks for the final time in this second interview, recounting the dramatic arrest of Ivan Milat. Unexpectedly placed on the arrest team, he recalls the moment he handcuffed Milat, the terror he felt, and the overwhelming media attention that followed. Paul reflects on the evidence found, his belief that Milat had many more victims, and the lasting impact the case had on his life.
Our thanks to Detective Gordon, who died shortly after he recorded this episode.
