Case 309: Lindsay Jellett
🕑 Added 2025-03-08 08:19:41 +0000 UTCWhen 41-year-old Lindsay Jellett failed to return home from his evening walk around the Victorian town of Ararat in May 1994, staff at his residential care unit were immediately worried. As well as being intellectually disabled, Lindsay had epilepsy which required nightly medication and it wasn’t like him to lose track of time. As daybreak emerged, a grim discovery led to the question - who would want to hurt this innocent man?

THEY BURRIED HER NEXT TO HIM?!

As a Dad with a son with special needs who is totally dependent on the loving care of others, this one hit hard. The "best day ever" quote was particularly emotional for me. I feel horribly for the defenseless Lindsay, but I thank you and your team for highlighting his memory as an amazing person with special needs who deserves the justice that you presented to us.

Heartbreaking.... I'm just shattered for that sweet man, who's only guilt was loving and trusting his twin sister.

That's what I keep replaying in my head....my heart hurts for that sweet innocent man. I hope in death his sister is restored to her previous childhood innocence, and remembers the love they shared since in utero.

“He’d just had the best day ever because he’d spent it with his sister” 💔😭

Ah, i usually enjoy re-listening to the patreon re-ups, but this case is just so heartbreaking. Out of the countless true crime stories I've heard over the years, it's hard to think of any case sadder than this one. Thanks to you all for bringing it to us anyway, because Lindsay deserves to be remembered, and here's to your mental health. 💙
