Thabo Bester: The Facebook Rapist Escape
Podcast: Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime PodcastPublished On: Tue Sep 30 2025
Description: Thabo Bester, known as South Africa's "Facebook Rapist," was serving a life sentence when he allegedly died in a prison fire in 2022. But months later, he was discovered alive and living under a new identity—with the help of a celebrity doctor. This audacious prison escape exposed massive corruption within South Africa's correctional system and raised disturbing questions about who else helped him disappear. When a convicted killer "dies" in prison, someone should probably check the body. New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!
