A bizarre case of inexplicable death on a riverbank in Sydney in 1963

On New Year's Day 1963, two bodies were discovered on an Australian riverbank.

In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll tell the story of the Bogle-Chandler case, which riveted Australia for years.

We'll also revisit the Rosenhan study and puzzle over a revealing lighthouse.
