À propos de cet audio

This week on Profiler Africa, Paul Viv and Dr. Gerard Labuschagne sit down with Nicole Engelbrecht – South Africa’s leading true crime voice, creator of the chart-topping True Crime South Africa podcast, and author of multiple acclaimed books.

In Part 1 of this exclusive two-part interview, Nicole opens up about leaving corporate life to build a victim-first media platform, her journey as an author, and the ethics of telling stories of tragedy.

The discussion shifts to one of South Africa’s most haunting school attacks – the Morné Harmse “Samurai Sword” case – and his controversial release on parole. Nicole shares her in-depth research from Samurai Sword Murder, while Gerard unpacks the failures of risk assessment in South Africa’s parole system.

In this episode:

  • Nicole’s journey into true crime and victim-focused storytelling

  • The parole controversy surrounding Morné Harmse

  • Systemic challenges in South Africa’s parole and justice system

  • How the Sizzlers Massacre shaped Nicole’s advocacy

🎧 Part 2 next week: A deep dive into the Sizzlers Massacre.
