## Resource

Police spent more than a week combing through the Palasics home following the fatal home invasion in 1999, but under cross examination the defence elicited a potentially crucial concession from the man who led that search. In this episode, reporters Elizabeth Byrne and James Vyver describe the meticulous path which was cleared to Irma's body to preserve the crime scene and the importance of the Melbourne shoe library. If you have any questions you'd like Liz, James and Stocky to answer in future episodes, please email thecaseof@abc.net.au . The Case Of is the follow-up to the hit podcast Mushroom Case Daily, and all episodes of that show will remain available in the back catalogue of The Case Of.
