The Great Bookie Robbery and the Gamble of Crime with Andrew Rule

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. Anne Manne is a journalist and social philosopher. Her new book, "Crime of the Cross", is about a paedophile network run by members of the Anglican Church in Newcastle in the 1980s and 1990s.It's made me realise that the shocking details of the crimes committed by the Catholic clergy have almost blinded me to some of the other revelations brought into the light by the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse (2013).This story has many similarities to those we've heard of the paedophile priest cluster in Ballarat, and the measures the Catholic Church went to to silence victims and protect offenders. However, there are also many significant differences.We urge you to purchase a copy of Anne Manne's book "Crimes of the Cross", which can be accessed by clicking this link.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. Adrian Trevor Moore is one of Australia's worst rapists, and also a former member of the WA Police.In 2018, investigators began contacting women to tell them that Moore had used the police computer system to run background checks on them. This lead to accusations of predatory behaviour, and eventually a warrant was executed on his home which uncovered a trove of photographs and videos of him sexually abusing heavily sedated women.Over 200 individual women were featured in that material. One of those women, Josie, is today's guest on Australian True Crime.In episode #460 of Australian True Crime, we interviewed Nicole Edwards, a former WA Police Officer who is also a survivor of Adrian Trevor Moore.Like Nicole, Josie is critical of WA Police's decision to have the case investigated initially (and for some years) by Internal Affairs, rather than the Sex Crimes unit, and she's joined Nicole's campaign calling for a thorough external enquiry into the handling of the case.For Support: Lifeline  on 13 11 1413 YARN on 13 92 76 (24/7 crisis support phone line for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples)1800RESPECT: 1800 737 732CREDITS:Host: Meshel Laurie.

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed. Our guest today is Michelle Liddle. In February this year, she watched for the second time as two teenagers fought for their freedom after taking the life of her fifteen year old son, Angus Beaumont, in a Brisbane park in 2020. They were aged just 13 and 14 at the time of the lethal stabbing. One was on bail for armed robbery and the other was on probation.They both had significant histories of violent assaults. But even though Angus's final moments were captured on CCTV, the boys successfully appealed their initial convictions for his stabbing death and won a retrial. That judge only trial began in December 2023 and ended with one of the boys being found guilty of murder and the other guilty of manslaughter. They were sentenced to nine years and six years respectively.However, each of them is expected to serve around half of those sentences. You can support Angus' family by joining the "Justice for Angus Beaumont" page on Facebook.For Support: Lifeline  on 13 11 1413 YARN on 13 92 76 (24/7 crisis support phone line for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples)1800RESPECT: 1800 737 732CREDITS:Host: Meshel Laurie.

Skase's empire collapsed in the early 1990s due to massive debts and allegations of corporate misconduct.

This is a re-issue of episode #14. Originally aired July 13th, 2017.Sent on a simple errand to the local shops by her mother, six-year-old Kylie Maybury never made it home alive.
