  • An astonishing development placing one man in the centre of the inquest.
    The world has been gripped by the mysterious disappearance of Marion Barter. The Queensland mother and schoolteacher’s vanishing inspired a major 7NEWS podcast - which has now been downloaded more than 16 million times - that evolved into an international tale of fraud, theft and maybe even murder.
    The case has left authorities and the public grappling for answers, and at its heart a loving daughter pining for her mum.
    Now, in a 7NEWS Spotlight global investigation airing this Sunday at 8.40pm on Channel 7 and 7plus, comes the stunning breakthrough in one of Australia’s biggest and most perplexing missing person cases.
    Award-winning investigative reporter, Liam Bartlett, uncovers the hidden secrets of notorious conman Ric Blum, who has long been in the frame for Marion’s disappearance.
    The latest development will turn the spotlight on the connection between Blum and another mysterious death, exposing a chilling reality that needs to be seen to be believed.

    How women hand over their money to this man or any man is beyond me. A man who claims to love you does not need to get his hands on your finances.

    I wish older women understood, no matter how lonely they are, you never reveal your financial status. Don’t you want a lover for just being you and not your money or asset’s? There are those men that can smell out vulnerability like the best hunting dog you’ve ever seen because they are a dog. Not bashing dogs in fact, may I suggest you get a real dog instead as they will never betray you and love you unconditionally.

    As an older, single woman, I can't help but wonder how vulnerable I would have been to this slippery con man. One thing I can guarantee is my money would never have ended up in his hands.

    Nearly there Sally, well done for standing your ground. I just picked up the podcast a couple of weeks ago , and got 20 or so hours in listening to the 2019 podcast sessions, before giving into temptation and googling to get an update, only to find how very current it is. Well done Sally and podcast friends.

    Have never heard of this story but ao glad i decided to watch this... So very sorry to hear about your brother, Sally 😔 you're an amazing, strong woman for what you have been through & are still out there fighting for the truth you so deserve to know! Sending good vibes out for you, I truly wish you all the best! Much love from NZ ❤

    Congratulations to Spotlight 7. I watch every edition aired, and the continuity and story telling is first class. Liam Bartlett (chef's kiss) first class interviewer. Between this and 9's Under Investigation with Liz Hayes, 60 minutes has a lot of excellence to meet. ❤

    It's hard to understand why Marion hid so much from her daughter. 😢

    • @jarasimonson4040
      @jarasimonson4040 11 месяцев назад +76

      I think she knew somewhere that things were a bit off and didn't want to tell her children because they would tell her what they felt about the situation exactly, she wanted to believe in a new exciting live with a new love. I think she planned on telling them later, step by step, that she had met a man, then invite them to their wedding etc.

      Omg you really can’t be that ignorant or serious. You’re telling me you’ve got it all worked out bc of how you think someone looks a bit mentally off in a photo. I don’t think you can assume someone has a mental illness from a photo.

    What a travesty 😢 My heart aches for Sally, Owen and any poor soul that has crossed his path. I hope he is brought before the courts, kicked out of Australia and lives in some hellish place. I am so angry that it’s taken so, so long to get to the bottom of this monsters deeds. They certainly do live amongst us and people of all ages and sexes are being gaslit and ignored.
    Well done to 7News Spotlight and all involved, but mostly I give praise to and highly recommend the first class podcast The Lady Vanishes.
    LET’S FIND MARION

    One evil person is all it takes to cause this much pain and sorrow, and we are living in a world where this is common knowledge making me wonder why the police still behave as if we still live in the 1970s. My heart goes out to Sally and her brother(r.i.p), and all the other victims including his poor daughter.

    I cant believe that he still has more secrets, they just keep unfolding. Anyone watching this or listening to the podcasts please share with everyone you know so that Sally can find some news on her mum and also so Evelyn have the answers she needs. This creep has done enough destruction without the police giving him one iota of help in any capacity.
