I Catch Killers with Gary Jubelin

Mark Wales joined the military as a wide-eyed 17-year-old recruit, and quickly rose through the ranks, eventually leading one of Australia's most elite special forces troops in some of the most dangerous combat environments on earth. He saw the war in Afghanistan evolve from targeted counter-terrorism into something far more complicated, and ultimately, far less certain.
In this episode of I Catch Killers, Mark opens up about what it takes to earn a place in the SAS, the psychological toll of repeated deployments, and how he watched the Afghan war slowly lose its sense of purpose from the inside. Mark speaks candidly about kill lists, mission creep, the counterinsurgency strategies that were doomed before they started, and the moment he knew the war was effectively over… long before the politicians admitted it. Gary and Mark also tackle the recent war crimes allegations, the complex environment that shaped those events, the chain of command responsibility that rarely gets discussed, and why, no matter how it unfolds, almost nobody comes out of this saga looking good.

Between 2010 and 2017, eight men vanished from Toronto's gay village. The man responsible was hiding in plain sight, a landscape gardener who moonlighted as a shopping centre Santa Claus.
In part two of his chat with Gary, former Toronto Homicide Inspector Hank Idsinga reveals the full story behind the Bruce McArthur serial killer investigation. From a tip about cannibalism on the dark web, to dismembered victims discovered inside backyard garden planters, this is one of the most disturbing cases in Canadian criminal history. Hank also reveals how his team arrived just in time to save the life of what would have been victim number nine.
In this episode of I Catch Killers, Hank also opens up about commanding the homicide response to the 2018 Toronto van attack, a mass murder scene stretching two and a half kilometres, and what it truly takes to make the right calls when lives are on the line.
Hank is also the author of The High Road, a behind-the-scenes account of his career inside the Toronto Police Service.

What does it really take to break the cycle of crime?
In Part 2 of this conversation, Gary sits down with Lincoln Tarrow-Lynch, a man caught up in crime since he was a kid, who’d spent years dealing drugs, battling ice addiction, and surviving on the fringes of society, to uncover what finally turned his life around.
Lincoln opens up about his first adult prison sentence, losing his mother while behind bars, and walking out of jail with nothing but a plastic bag and no support network. He shares how Rainbow Lodge, a post-release residential program in Sydney, gave him the soft landing he needed, and why without it, he's certain he'd have gone straight back into jail.

What happens when the system meant to protect a child chooses to punish them instead? Lincoln Tarrow-Lynch's earliest memory is watching his father being arrested. By five, his mother was in prison. By twelve, he was committing petty crime, living on the streets, and being abused by adults, yet the system kept sending him back to the danger it knew was there.
In this episode of I Catch Killers, Gary sits down with Lincoln to trace the fault lines of a childhood shaped by neglect, abuse, and a justice system that criminalised a child who simply needed care. Lincoln's story challenges everything we think we know about youth crime.
