URGENT UPDATE: A Perth conspiracy theory podcaster, Tobias Nuttall, has been charged with the murder of a 30-year-old woman following a fatal stabbing incident in Bassendean on Wednesday. Nuttall, aged 32, is the co-host of the podcast “Waking World,” which delves into topics like the occult and conspiracy theories.

Nuttall was arrested after police responded to a distress call at a residence on Reid Street around 12:00 PM on Wednesday. Upon arrival, authorities discovered a woman suffering from stab wounds. She was rushed to Royal Perth Hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries later that day.

During a court appearance at Midland Magistrates Court on Friday, Nuttall wore a blue prison jumpsuit and only spoke to acknowledge his name. It is believed that he and the victim were acquainted, adding a layer of complexity to this tragic case.

Nuttall, a resident of Brigadoon, graduated with a bachelor of philosophy from the University of Notre Dame in 2019. The podcast he co-hosts describes itself as a “weekly ritual” for those intrigued by the “shadowy recesses of existence” and conspiracy theories.

Nuttall is scheduled to appear again in Stirling Gardens Magistrates Court on September 17 for further proceedings. The community is reeling from this shocking incident, as the podcast’s themes raise questions about reality and the darker sides of human behavior.

As the investigation unfolds, updates will be crucial for understanding the circumstances surrounding this case. Stay tuned for further developments as authorities continue to probe this alarming situation.
