This weekend 60 Minutes speaks with Belinda van Krevil, recently released from prison, plus the Australian Air Force in Iraq & Syria and a booming cosmetic surgery industry.

An Evil Betrayal
Belinda van Krevil’s life reads like a rap sheet of horror. She’s been dubbed “Belinda Van Evil”, and for good reason. She ordered the execution of her father, and nearly stabbed to death the man she loved. She did it all in the name of her brother, Mark van Krevil – a serial killer who’s locked up for life. Just a few weeks ago Belinda was released from prison for the second time, surely her last chance at freedom. This Sunday she tells Allison Langdon that the community shouldn’t feel scared that she is back walking amongst us. But what happens when Belinda realises the ultimate betrayal? Will she be able to keep it together?

Special Report: Bombing ISIS
Over 400 Australian men and women are currently fighting an air war against ISIS in Iraq and Syria. None of them have spoken publicly until now. The Royal Australian Air Force has sent a squadron of jet fighters, along with mid-air refuelling aircraft and surveillance planes, to tackle the growing threat of Islamic State. While it may sound as though there is safety in being a few thousand feet above the enemy, this week Michael Usher learns that these brave air men and women face very real threats. In this exclusive report, 60 Minutes goes inside the cockpit with our courageous soldiers as they drop bombs to take out ISIS.

Cosmetic versus Plastic
Cosmetic surgery is a billion-dollar industry in Australia. Per capita, we spend more on cosmetic procedures – breast augmentation, tummy tucks, nose jobs – than any other nation on earth. And make no mistake, it is an industry, one run mostly by entrepreneurs dubbed “cosmetic cowboys” by the medical profession. Unlike plastic surgeons, most of the thousands of cosmetic surgeons operating in Australia have no specialist surgical training. And most of their operations take place in what is basically an office. Most dangerous of all, these operations are being carried out using potentially toxic anaesthetic methods. This week on 60 Minutes, Tara Brown investigates an industry running rampant, unregulated and very risky.

  1. Don’t let the facts get in the way of sensationalising a story. Belinda van Krevil is unlikely to present a threat to the community now that she is “walking amongst us” unless that person is a member of her family. Her father had molested her brother and was apparently molesting her daughter when he was killed. And Mark van Krevil is not a serial killer as he killed two people, both of whom it is alleged propositioned him and were known or suspected paedophiles.
