Welcome to the Episode 19 of Murder & Mayhem: South African True Crime. About the episode: A day that was supposed to be full of joy and celebrations quickly turned deadly as hundreds of children were exposed to a chemical weapon. In the chaos that ensued- 13 lives were lost. And the reason for the attack in the first place? Money. A rival club suffering financially decided that drastic measures would need to be taken in order to increase the feet in their venue. But things went horribly wrong. And with everything that has been happening in these last 2 weeks, this tragedy brings to light- once again many societal issues.   This is the case of the Throb Nightclub Tragedy.   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.
