Synopsis:
Grace Millane was a twenty-one year old British tourist whose disappearance in Auckland after a Tinder date in early December 2018 sparked international attention. A 26-year-old man, Jesse Shane Kempson, was subsequently charged with her murder on 8 December 2018 after a highly publicised investigation. Grace’s body was found in the Waitakere Ranges to the west of Auckland the following day. Millane’s case was a turning point in history – an appalling 21st century dating app crime investigated to a live, fascinated, audience.
