My Sister FORGOT I Tried To KILL Her - Inside The Van Breda Family Massacre
She survived with her throat slashed but her brain erased the memory of who attacked her. He's her brother and he's serving three life sentences. This is the chilling true story of the Van Breda family massacre in South Africa where a luxury gated estate became a crime scene so horrific that investigators couldn't believe what they found.
Why did someone call their girlfriend before calling 911 while their family lay dying? What happens when the only surviving witness can't remember anything? How did forensic blood evidence expose a carefully constructed lie? We dive deep into the bizarre timeline, the shocking courtroom testimony, and the disturbing behavior that convinced a judge to hand down one of South Africa's most controversial verdicts.
From the first 911 call that operators thought was a prank to the moment a sister woke up in hospital with no memory of the attack, every detail of this case will leave you speechless. Axe murder, family betrayal, selective amnesia, wealthy family secrets, and a trial that gripped an entire nation.
If you're obsessed with true crime cases like Chris Watts, Menendez Brothers, or JonBenet Ramsey, this South African murder mystery will haunt you. Listen until the end to hear the one piece of evidence that sealed his fate forever.
