Building Worse, Why I Killed My Mother
60 Minutes Nick McKenzie revisits the CFMEU saga, revealing new information.
Building Worse
Eight months ago, in a series of award-winning stories, 60 Minutes, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald, exposed endemic corruption and criminality at Australia's most powerful construction union, the CFMEU. Nick McKenzie's reports, "Building Bad", so horrified federal and state governments that immediate action was promised. Police investigations were launched, an administrator was appointed to take over the running over the union, and influential union figures, including bikies who'd wheedled their way into the organisation, were sacked. It looked like the rot was finally over. However, as McKenzie now discovers, that's far from the case. In fact it's business as usual for many of thugs associated with the CFMEU as they continue bullying and ripping off anyone who stands in their way.

Why I Killed My Mother
You're unlikely to encounter anyone sweeter than Gypsy-Rose Blanchard. She really is charming. But she's also a convicted murderer. With help from a so-called boyfriend she met online, she killed her own mother. The brutal crime – Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard was stabbed 17 times – happened ten years ago, and Gypsy-Rose was imprisoned. But now she's free. On 60 Minutes, Amelia Adams meets a controversial young woman very determined to let the world know why she did what she did.
