Melbourne Jeweller Murders: The Pin Family and the Manchester Unity Building

Mini Episode. Season 5 Coming Soon. In December 1996, a family-run jewellery business in Melbourne’s Century Building, on Swanston Street, became the focus of a serious police investigation. A father, mother, and son were working together in their office when a violent incident occurred. A man was present at the scene and reported what he had experienced, prompting investigators to piece together exactly what had happened. Nearly twenty years earlier, in March 1978, another Swanston Street building, the Manchester Unity Building, was the scene of a separate violent incident involving jewellers and a customer. Both cases took place in busy city-centre offices and required detailed police investigations to establish the circumstances and sequence of events. This episode covers both incidents: the 1996 Century Building case involving the Pin family, and the 1978 Manchester Unity Building case.
