Nov 17 2021 • 27 mins

Welcome to the episode 2 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime. This is an immersive 3D audio experience so headphones are recommended (but of course not necessary)

About the episode:

Louisa Cornelia Susana Van Der Merwe was born in 2013 and just a mere 3 years later, her little life would be cut short- taken by the people she trusted to look after her- her family. During her months of abuse, although people saw what was happening, they and the authorities failed her. Her voice and her experience must be known.
