Homosexuality was decriminalized in Australia in 1984, but with a history of assault on gay men, this doesn't stop groups of teens tormenting more victims. Gay men in Australia were hunted down, berated, and beaten.  Gay hate crimes were rampant in Sydney Australia throughout the 1980's & 1990's. This led to multiple deaths that were not taken seriously, and quickly ruled as suicide. These are some of the victim's stories.
