## Resource

A Brisbane real estate agent was convicted of murdering his girlfriend in a chilling case built on circumstantial evidence—no body, no witnesses, just soil disposal and digital breadcrumbs. The prosecution linked his actions to the day she vanished, highlighting his suspicious behavior, phone messages, and the excavation of his yard. Brooten’s own writings revealed a terrifying pattern of abuse and fear, while Waden’s attempts to frame her as unstable only deepened the mystery. Despite his claims of innocence, the jury found him guilty, sentencing him to life with parole after 20 years. Her daughter now waits for closure, hoping remains will be found and the truth fully confessed. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
