You might think that a string of murders of gay men in Sydney in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, which may have had almost 90 victims, would have received international news coverage. You might think that this would warrant international condemnation … but it didn’t. In fact, so little attention was paid to these crimes that the police barely even investigated them.

*** The language in this episode may be triggering for some listeners. The derogatory homophobic and transphobic words that appeared in my research are the words that I have used as I feel these highlight the bigoted views of people at the time of this crime. No offence is intended by using these words. ***
