In a Sydney courtroom, a former police officer has pleaded not guilty to the murders of two young men — a television presenter and a flight attendant — allegedly killed in 2024 by someone who once carried a badge and swore to protect. The case asks an ancient and painful question: what becomes of a person when love curdles into possession, and possession into violence? Over three months, a jury of fifteen will be asked to weigh the distance between obsession and premeditation, and to reckon with the human cost of two lives cut short.
