Welcome to the Episode 46 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime.   About the episode: Klawer- a quiet town along South Africa’s West Coast, where life moves at a slow, familiar pace. A town known for its rooibos, its grapes and its honey. But in February 2022, a horrifying crime shattered that silence. A 13-year-old boy vanished, last seen running for his life.   What happened next sent shockwaves through the nation, exposing the darkest depths of human cruelty. As the truth unfolded, it raised unsettling questions about justice, community, and the hidden dangers that can lurk behind even the most unassuming facades. This is the story of Klawer’s most chilling crime...a case that would leave a permanent scar on South Africa. This is Jerobejin Van Wyk’s Story.   For images, sources and real footage of the individuals and the case mentioned, please visit my Youtube Channel- Bella Monsoon where this case has been covered in video format HERE.   SHOP the South African Truly Criminal Colouring Book: https://shop.bellamonsoon.com/collections/books   Mental Health Resources: If you are feeling triggered by any of the content within this podcast please reach out and speak to someone.
