Summary The mysterious death of a bride during a honeymoon SCUBA dive - new evidence and unanswered questions."There was always, 'Is there an innocent explanation to this?' But at the end of the day there were just too many lies, too many inconsistencies and it certainly left me with no doubt in my mind as to what happened on that day." - Detective Senior Constable Kevin GehringerSeven years ago, a young American bride, Tina Watson, died during a honeymoon SCUBA dive on the Great Barrier Reef.Tina's husband Gabe was charged with murder but eventually convicted and jailed for manslaughter, amidst controversy over the role of the Queensland DPP.Back in Tina's home state of Alabama, authorities are convinced there's been a failure of justice and they continue their efforts to get Gabe Watson back in the dock.It remains a baffling case, involving the justice system of two countries, and a series of events that are hard to explain in any terms."We were looking for innocent explanations, but the fact of the matter is, we go where the evidence leads us and in this investigation, the evidence didn't lead us to any innocent explanation. In fact, it was quite the opposite - it was obvious that blatant lies had been told which appeared to be in an attempt to distance [Watson] from any wrongdoing." - Detective Sergeant Gary CampbellUnfathomable - Part One examines comprehensive evidence relating to the case and features interviews with Tina's father, detectives directly linked to investigation and witnesses on board dive boat Spoilsport on the day of Tina's death.Producer: Caitlin Shea Executive Producer: Deborah Fleming
