Due to a huge number of requests following a new Netflix doc on Thabo Bester, we're re-releasing our 2023 episode on the shocking, shameless, madder-than-fiction South African saga.--At 2am, on the 3rd of May 2022 – inmates at Mangaung prison in Bloemfontein, South Africa, were woken up by an explosion. Word spread that Thabo Bester, the infamous “Facebook Rapist”, had set himself and his cell on fire. And all that remained after the dramatic blaze were a lighter, and a body, burnt beyond recognition. But that’s far from the end of the story.&nbsp;With daily revelations from the trial still hitting headlines, expect a farcical morgue-robbing scheme, a massive-scale web of fraud conducted from inside a prison cell, and a glamorous celebrity doctor who’s not quite what she seems.--Exclusive bonus content:<a href="https://wondery.com/shows/redhanded/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wondery</a>&nbsp;- Ad-free & ShortHand<a href="http://patreon.com/redhanded" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a>&nbsp;- Ad-free & Bonus EpisodesFollow us on social media:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7dovjXDB69lhDjASbAgnwA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">YouTube</a><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@redhandedthepod" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/redhandedthepod/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>Visit our website:<a href="https://redhandedpodcast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Website</a>Sources available on&nbsp;<a href="https://redhandedpodcast.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">redhandedpodcast.com</a>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
