Conversations to Die For

The kidnapping of Graeme Thorne


Listen Later

This week, we cover one of Australia's most infamous kidnapping cases.  

In 1960, the construction of the Sydney Opera House was proving too expensive, so the New South Wales Government initiated a lottery to help raise money.   

The 5 million dollar prize was won by the Thorne family.  And it wasn't long before a man called Stephen Bradley read the stories of the Thorne’s win and decided he deserved a piece of it.   

Stephen kidnapped their youngest son Graeme Thorne and soon began Australia's biggest ever search to bring Graeme home.
