This programme contains some strong language and some scenes which some viewers may find upsetting.

0:00:030:00:10

Ah, look at that. Oscar's waiting for you. Are you nervous?

0:01:240:01:27

-Yeah, a little.

-Nah, you'll be fine.

0:01:270:01:29

You just show them how we do it country style, OK?

0:01:290:01:31

Hey! Happy Australia Day.

0:01:310:01:33

Same to you, mate.

0:01:330:01:35

-Hey.

-Hi, love.

0:01:370:01:39

-Coming out, old-timer?

-Hey, I'm on duty.

0:01:390:01:42

It's a mess out there.

0:01:440:01:46

You should have been here yesterday.

0:01:460:01:48

I was still unpacking those boxes. It's a nightmare.

0:01:480:01:51

Killer rips out there today.

0:01:530:01:55

Yeah, Will's got to learn how to handle himself.

0:01:550:01:57

No-one better than Oscar.

0:01:570:01:58

Other than you, Dad.

0:02:000:02:02

All right. Here we go.

0:02:080:02:10

-Oh!

-THEY CHUCKLE

0:02:100:02:12

Look at him. He's a natural, that young fella.

0:02:120:02:14

Look at the balance. Good!

0:02:140:02:17

Like Shane.

0:02:170:02:18

PHONE BLEEPS

0:02:210:02:22

I'm going to have to go, Dad.

0:02:240:02:25

Sorry. Can you take care of Will?

0:02:250:02:27

And just make sure he eats something, yeah?

0:02:270:02:29

I will.

0:02:290:02:30

Murder victim's name is Mr Haris Rexhaj.

0:02:360:02:41

Beaten to death around midnight.

0:02:410:02:42

-Who called it in?

-Anonymous, 5am.

0:02:450:02:48

-Detective.

-G'day, Jill. This is Tori. She's new.

0:02:520:02:55

Detective Constable Lustigman.

0:02:550:02:57

No signs of break and enter.

0:03:000:03:03

Welcome to paradise, kids.

0:03:060:03:08

-Hey, Brenda.

-How are you?

0:03:080:03:11

So, judging by the injuries, the killer restrained the victim,

0:03:130:03:17

battered him to death.

0:03:170:03:18

-Weapon?

-Blunt object. Possibly curved.

0:03:180:03:22

No indents to the flesh,

0:03:220:03:24

but injuries to the skull indicate the assailant was right-handed.

0:03:240:03:26

Have you found any restraints?

0:03:260:03:28

No. There's more.

0:03:280:03:30

Unusual, but he's got cuts to the testes.

0:03:300:03:32

-Jealous lover?

-Possibly premeditated.

0:03:320:03:36

The killer's brought the knife with him.

0:03:360:03:38

Unless there's one missing from the kitchen?

0:03:380:03:40

No.

0:03:400:03:42

-MAN:

-'Hey, Haris. It's me. Pick up the phone.

0:03:420:03:45

'I know you're there. I can see the lights.

0:03:450:03:47

'What are you doing?

0:03:470:03:49

-WOMAN:

-'Mashka here, darling. Call me.

0:03:490:03:52

'This is crazy. I love you! You love me.

0:03:520:03:56

'That's more important than what your family think.'

0:03:560:03:58

Ten to one it's a domestic.

0:04:000:04:02

Don't want to have to take your money again, Nick, but you're on.

0:04:020:04:05

-WOMAN:

-'Darling, it's Mashka again. Where are you?

0:04:050:04:08

'It's late and your uncle is complaining. Can you call me?'

0:04:080:04:12

That came through 20 minutes ago.

0:04:120:04:14

Guess you've done your fair share of death knocks in Goulburn.

0:04:140:04:17

LAUGHTER AND CHATTER

0:04:210:04:24

Just deliver the news. Try not to get emotionally involved.

0:04:380:04:42

Are you telling yourself that, or me?

0:04:420:04:44

KNOCK AT DOOR

0:04:540:04:56

Sh, sh.

0:05:030:05:05

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

0:05:050:05:07

SOBBING

0:05:070:05:10

My brother's been killed.

0:05:100:05:13

Why?

0:05:130:05:14

We don't know yet. Was there anyone threatening him?

0:05:140:05:19

No.

0:05:190:05:21

Do you have any idea why someone would have done this?

0:05:210:05:24

Any long-term lovers, or...?

0:05:240:05:27

-SHE LAUGHS

-Lovers?

0:05:270:05:29

With Haris, it's always work, work, work.

0:05:300:05:34

He doesn't have time for girlfriends.

0:05:360:05:39

HE CLEARS THROAT

0:05:400:05:41

Er, what about any, um, boyfriends?

0:05:420:05:46

What?

0:05:460:05:47

No, no, no. You don't understand.

0:05:470:05:50

My son is not a homosexual. No!

0:05:500:05:53

No.

0:05:540:05:56

It's... Was Haris wearing a watch?

0:06:200:06:23

No.

0:06:230:06:24

Our father's watch is missing. It's a Piaget.

0:06:240:06:28

His black leather jacket isn't here either.

0:06:320:06:34

He loved it. He would never let me borrow it.

0:06:340:06:36

Could you tell me, who is this with Haris in this photograph?

0:06:380:06:44

His name is Rohan.

0:06:440:06:46

Mm.

0:06:460:06:47

Is he a boyfriend?

0:06:470:06:49

Ex.

0:06:490:06:51

Do you recognise this voice?

0:06:510:06:53

-MAN:

-'This is crazy. I love you, you love me.

0:06:530:06:56

'That's more important than what your family think.'

0:06:560:07:00

Would Rohan have a key?

0:07:010:07:03

Do you know his address?

0:07:070:07:08

It should be in Haris's phone.

0:07:100:07:11

Yeah, we haven't found his phone yet.

0:07:110:07:13

If that freaky Persian killed my brother...

0:07:130:07:16

Nick.

0:07:160:07:18

Excuse me. Still no phone,

0:07:180:07:19

but thought you might want to take a look at that.

0:07:190:07:21

-Thanks.

-I want that back downstairs.

0:07:210:07:23

Thrustr?

0:07:270:07:29

Did your brother use Thrustr to meet men?

0:07:290:07:32

We didn't talk about his sex life much.

0:07:320:07:35

But he DID meet random men for sex?

0:07:350:07:38

He might have.

0:07:380:07:40

Well, come on, mate. I'll drive you home.

0:07:420:07:44

Er...

0:07:500:07:52

Try canvassing the neighbours, see if anybody heard anything.

0:07:520:07:56

And don't try so hard.

0:07:560:07:57

PUNCHES LAND

0:08:020:08:04

KNOCK AT DOOR

0:08:120:08:14

Did you see or hear anything unusual last night, Mr...?

0:08:220:08:26

Mac. Eddie Mac.

0:08:260:08:29

I didn't see nothing.

0:08:290:08:31

Heard banging on me ceiling.

0:08:340:08:37

I thought it was horseplay.

0:08:370:08:39

Two stallions kind of horseplay.

0:08:410:08:44

I had to yell at them to stop the friggin' noise.

0:08:460:08:49

What time was that?

0:08:490:08:50

About midnight.

0:08:530:08:54

Did you get up to deal with it?

0:08:550:08:57

He was beaten. He didn't call out for help?

0:09:010:09:03

Well, if he did, I didn't hear any squealing.

0:09:030:09:07

Have you ever been inside?

0:09:100:09:12

-Haris's?

-Nuh.

0:09:130:09:15

And...do you have a prison record, Mr Mac?

0:09:170:09:21

Hell, no.

0:09:220:09:24

Right.

0:09:280:09:29

Oi!

0:09:390:09:40

-Hey.

-Got some questions for you.

0:09:400:09:43

-About?

-Do you know about this Thrustr app?

0:09:430:09:46

-You want to know about Thrustr?

-Yeah.

0:09:470:09:50

-And you think

-I

-know?

0:09:500:09:51

Users upload a picture, a short description,

0:09:550:09:59

the kind of guy you're looking for.

0:09:590:10:02

The GPS on your phone shows

0:10:020:10:03

the location of a user.

0:10:030:10:05

Users can send messages to one another

0:10:070:10:09

and they don't show on phone records.

0:10:090:10:11

SHE SCOFFS

0:10:110:10:13

You don't look impressed.

0:10:130:10:15

Well, it's the perfect tool for our killer to lure his victim.

0:10:150:10:19

Hey, are there any 70-year-old boxers on there?

0:10:220:10:24

Honey, you'd be surprised who's on here.

0:10:240:10:28

Is that right?

0:10:280:10:30

-This is nice.

-Mm. Will be.

0:10:330:10:36

Eddie Mac was sentenced to six months in 1983 for assault.

0:10:470:10:52

He worked at a local club, he was a bouncer, hit a client.

0:10:520:10:55

You got anything more recent?

0:10:550:10:57

Er, yes.

0:10:570:10:58

He had a fight with our victim

0:10:580:11:00

over what he refers to as his parking spot.

0:11:000:11:03

What about the family?

0:11:030:11:05

They seem like a close unit, genuinely shocked to hear the news.

0:11:050:11:07

His brother was the only one who knew about his sexuality.

0:11:070:11:11

-The twin did not like the ex.

-Yeah.

0:11:110:11:13

According to the brother, the ex was the needy type

0:11:130:11:16

and his needs weren't being met.

0:11:160:11:18

Now, if I didn't know about the ex-boyfriend,

0:11:180:11:20

I might wonder if theft was a motive,

0:11:200:11:22

so do we have any violent burglaries in the area?

0:11:220:11:26

-Not like this.

-Hm.

0:11:260:11:28

Could it be that we're dealing with a hate crime?

0:11:280:11:31

The victim's gay, the neighbour downstairs

0:11:310:11:34

has a history with assault and a homophobic attitude.

0:11:340:11:38

So, you think the neighbour might be a good fit for it?

0:11:380:11:40

The ligature marks indicate to me that the killer is into control and domination.

0:11:400:11:44

The cuts to the testes indicate anger.

0:11:440:11:47

My intuition is that we're dealing with somebody...

0:11:470:11:50

Hang on - intuition?

0:11:500:11:52

We need evidence. MMO.

0:11:520:11:54

Motive, means, opportunity.

0:11:540:11:56

Motive we're not too sure about.

0:11:560:11:57

Means, we know that he was beaten to death by a right-handed man

0:11:570:12:00

with a blunt instrument we don't have yet.

0:12:000:12:02

And opportunity...

0:12:020:12:03

Well, victim's gay, used Thrustr and he had a jealous ex.

0:12:030:12:08

This is the ex. Surname and address unknown as yet.

0:12:080:12:13

Well, we might get a break with the CCTV.

0:12:130:12:15

The victim's flat is here. It's right next to Cardinal Park.

0:12:150:12:18

There's a good escape route to the ocean path.

0:12:180:12:21

It's lit in parts. I'm not sure about CCTV.

0:12:210:12:24

Well, find out.

0:12:240:12:26

Right, well, I'll get the uniforms knocking on doors.

0:12:260:12:28

The rest of you, get out there, find me the weapon.

0:12:280:12:30

WOMAN SCREAMS

0:13:200:13:23

DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:13:410:13:43

What are you doing here?

0:13:510:13:53

Waiting for you.

0:13:530:13:55

-SHE SCOFFS

-In our new happy home.

0:13:550:13:58

And I got school tomorrow.

0:14:000:14:02

Your grandad's supposed to be looking after you.

0:14:020:14:05

I decided to walk.

0:14:050:14:07

Will...you shouldn't be alone.

0:14:070:14:10

I can take care of myself.

0:14:100:14:12

Oh, can you?

0:14:120:14:14

Been searching the news. No homicides.

0:14:160:14:21

What happened?

0:14:210:14:23

A young man was killed while he was home alone in a flat.

0:14:230:14:26

I can go back to Goulburn, live with Dad.

0:14:280:14:32

No.

0:14:320:14:34

No. You're staying here with me,

0:14:340:14:37

cos I'm greedy and I want you all to myself.

0:14:370:14:40

And I want to know that you're safe.

0:14:410:14:43

INDISTINCT VOICES IN DISTANCE

0:15:090:15:12

Give it here!

0:15:120:15:14

-Come on.

-No way. It's mine.

0:15:360:15:39

-No.

-Hey!

0:15:410:15:43

Did you boys bring that with you?

0:15:430:15:47

The club?

0:15:470:15:48

-Nah, we found it.

-Where?

0:15:490:15:51

OK, I need you to show me exactly where you found it.

0:15:520:15:55

Just found it over here.

0:16:000:16:03

-Right. Do you have a phone?

-Yeah.

0:16:030:16:07

-BRENDA:

-The club was found in saltwater,

0:16:070:16:10

been through five tidal changes, and lodged beneath a rock

0:16:100:16:13

and in the hands of two kids, but it did test positive for blood.

0:16:130:16:17

It'll take some time to get a match,

0:16:170:16:19

but we also retrieved tissue and fibre.

0:16:190:16:22

'Eddie Mac watched me recover the weapon from the rocks.'

0:16:270:16:31

He's got a record. Can we see if his prints match?

0:16:310:16:33

I doubt we'll get prints off the weapon.

0:16:330:16:35

However, we did get prints from the apartment.

0:16:350:16:37

None so far have come up as criminal, but we'll keep trying.

0:16:370:16:41

Fragments of hair found on the victim's torso

0:16:410:16:44

about 1/16 millimetre long.

0:16:440:16:45

Shavings.

0:16:450:16:47

Bingo.

0:16:470:16:48

Also, fur fibre.

0:16:480:16:50

They don't know yet what animal.

0:16:500:16:52

Good news is they found similar fibre

0:16:520:16:54

wedged into the grain of the club.

0:16:540:16:56

Forensics also found semen on the sheets,

0:16:560:16:59

fragments of crystal meth on the body, but none in Haris's blood.

0:16:590:17:02

So, angry, iced-up, sleep-deprived boxer, or jealous lover?

0:17:020:17:08

-I'm going to go with jealous lover.

-Could be a jealous lover.

0:17:080:17:10

Could be the victim was into consensual BDSM role-play

0:17:100:17:14

and it just went really wrong.

0:17:140:17:16

Worst-case scenario -

0:17:160:17:18

we're dealing with a psychologically disturbed killer,

0:17:180:17:20

-and an organised one.

-It may not be his first.

0:17:200:17:23

So look into it, see if you can find any murders with a similar MO.

0:17:230:17:26

MAN PRAYS IN FOREIGN LANGUAGE

0:17:290:17:32

We need a room so that Ismail and Amir can wash Haris.

0:17:410:17:46

I'm afraid that's not possible. They haven't done the postmortem yet.

0:17:480:17:51

Haris needs to be clean to enter paradise.

0:17:530:17:57

You'll have to wait until the body's released.

0:17:590:18:01

He is ours.

0:18:060:18:08

Not yours.

0:18:090:18:11

God have mercy you never find yourself in my place.

0:18:130:18:18

Now, can I just be alone with my son for a moment, please?

0:18:200:18:24

Of course.

0:18:240:18:25

Have you found him yet?

0:18:390:18:41

No. A surname would help.

0:18:410:18:44

When he met Haris, he was attached to a university.

0:18:440:18:47

OK. Do you remember which one?

0:18:470:18:50

I don't, but he was a scientist.

0:18:510:18:54

That's helpful. Thank you.

0:18:560:18:57

His hands!

0:18:570:18:59

He...

0:18:590:19:00

He was... He was tied!

0:19:000:19:03

Why's his hands...?

0:19:030:19:05

-Cover him, please.

-He's tied! Please, no.

0:19:050:19:08

Please! Can I just have peace?

0:19:080:19:12

Peace for my son!

0:19:120:19:14

SHE SOBS

0:19:140:19:16

Sir, there was a prior murder at Cardinal Park.

0:20:450:20:48

Facts, Victoria. Start with when.

0:20:480:20:50

-January 1990.

-Oh, that's too far back.

0:20:500:20:52

Well, it was right outside Mac's place.

0:20:520:20:54

Yeah. Was Mac convicted?

0:20:540:20:56

No. No, but that doesn't mean he wasn't involved.

0:20:560:20:59

1990...Canberra beat Penrith. It was Canberra's second premiership.

0:20:590:21:03

That was a good game.

0:21:030:21:05

And I was a junior officer here. So who was the victim?

0:21:050:21:07

-Greg Mills.

-Mills! I remember.

0:21:070:21:09

Some poor Polish prick got charged.

0:21:090:21:11

And frankly, I was a bit surprised he got done with murder.

0:21:110:21:13

-Right. Why was that?

-Well, it was just a stupid fight.

0:21:130:21:16

Bit of push, bit of shove, bit of bad luck.

0:21:160:21:17

I read the notes - the investigation seemed...

0:21:190:21:21

Careful.

0:21:210:21:22

Well, tied around the statement of a kid who could barely speak English.

0:21:220:21:25

Well, if I remember, the kid confessed.

0:21:250:21:27

Now, is there one shred of evidence tied to the current case?

0:21:270:21:31

-No.

-Then stop wasting my time.

0:21:310:21:32

I asked for similar MOs.

0:21:320:21:34

It's the same location and the victim profile's the same.

0:21:340:21:36

They're both gay men.

0:21:360:21:38

26 years apart. Just find me the rejected lover.

0:21:380:21:40

Sir, for a rejected lover,

0:21:400:21:42

the killing is brutal.

0:21:420:21:44

It doesn't gel.

0:21:440:21:46

Every day, Tori,

0:21:490:21:51

you come to work prepared to give up your life to protect others, hm?

0:21:510:21:55

But you've got a son.

0:21:570:21:59

Why would you do that?

0:22:010:22:02

Er...

0:22:020:22:04

well, I love my job. And I'm the breadwinner now.

0:22:040:22:09

You take care you survive.

0:22:100:22:12

Merry Christmas.

0:22:150:22:18

Your park ranger came through - CCTV from the coastal walk.

0:22:180:22:21

Cheers.

0:22:230:22:25

3:10 in the morning. What the hell's she doing out at that hour?

0:22:320:22:36

Animal has fur.

0:22:360:22:37

Beast it is.

0:22:370:22:38

But forensics confirmed it's not dog or cat fur.

0:22:380:22:41

Hello.

0:22:480:22:49

Is that Rohan?

0:22:490:22:51

Thanks.

0:22:510:22:53

University just coughed up a surname, Asad.

0:22:530:22:56

Rohan was living at the college,

0:22:560:22:58

but left several months ago after a blow-up with his supervisor.

0:22:580:23:01

Nothing like social media to do our job for us.

0:23:060:23:09

Ah. Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks?

0:23:090:23:11

Lab has semen on the sheets, so if you bring us a suspect...

0:23:130:23:16

Looks like he works at Bronte Beach Kiosk.

0:23:200:23:23

Rohan Asad, stop right there! Stop!

0:23:450:23:48

Rohan, stop! Police!

0:23:500:23:53

Stop! Police!

0:23:530:23:55

What do you want?

0:23:550:23:57

Just want to talk, mate. Just want to talk.

0:23:570:23:59

-You will send me back to Mossad!

-No, no, no, no.

0:23:590:24:02

We're just going to go down to Bondi station for questioning.

0:24:020:24:05

-Just relax.

-Don't let them do this to me!

0:24:050:24:08

-Settle down.

-They will kill me!

0:24:080:24:10

Settle down!

0:24:100:24:11

Rohan, you and Haris were lovers.

0:24:340:24:36

For one year, nothing but love.

0:24:380:24:40

When I insist Haris to meet his family,

0:24:430:24:46

we fight, and that is the end.

0:24:460:24:49

When was the last time you saw him?

0:24:510:24:53

The day before he is killed.

0:24:560:24:58

We swim. Talk love.

0:24:590:25:02

After, I am out for a walk.

0:25:100:25:13

I see him at the Green Room, dancing.

0:25:130:25:17

My heart is stone.

0:25:190:25:21

Haris used Thrustr to meet men.

0:25:220:25:24

Did that upset you?

0:25:250:25:27

He did not love them.

0:25:270:25:29

I've been betrayed.

0:25:300:25:33

It made me angry.

0:25:330:25:35

When you face that unexpectedly,

0:25:370:25:39

there's no telling how you'll respond.

0:25:390:25:42

Haris says that he's a free man,

0:25:490:25:52

and that I should go.

0:25:520:25:53

So I leave.

0:25:560:25:58

Were you inside or outside Haris's apartment

0:25:580:26:01

on the night of the 25th January?

0:26:010:26:04

No.

0:26:100:26:11

OK.

0:26:120:26:14

Well, then, we have a bit of a problem here.

0:26:140:26:17

Because you made a phone call to Haris's apartment at 11:28pm.

0:26:170:26:23

And we have CCTV footage of you at 5:10am.

0:26:230:26:28

So I need you to help me understand

0:26:290:26:32

what happened in between those hours.

0:26:320:26:34

Did you have sex with Haris the night he was killed?

0:26:360:26:39

I... I want everything to end.

0:26:430:26:45

So I swim far into black water.

0:26:470:26:50

But I am a coward.

0:26:500:26:53

I turn back and...

0:26:530:26:55

police come, throw me into van.

0:26:550:26:59

They take me to hospital, where I am prison.

0:26:590:27:01

It was night-time.

0:27:060:27:09

I go to see Haris.

0:27:090:27:10

I want to apologise, so that we can love again.

0:27:100:27:15

I go inside and...

0:27:160:27:18

What did you see?

0:27:240:27:26

Blood.

0:27:270:27:29

I want to hold him.

0:27:320:27:34

But...

0:27:340:27:36

he is...

0:27:360:27:38

He's dead.

0:27:380:27:39

I go to call police, but I...

0:27:420:27:44

I hear a door slam, so I flee.

0:27:440:27:47

Outside, I phone emergency and then I talk to police.

0:27:480:27:52

PHONE RINGS

0:27:520:27:54

-Rohan, we're going to need to take...

-Peel.

0:27:570:28:00

..some blood and hair samples from you.

0:28:000:28:02

Right.

0:28:020:28:03

What will you do with my blood?

0:28:030:28:05

-Why do you want...

-His student visa ran out months ago.

0:28:050:28:08

The Feds are on their way.

0:28:080:28:09

Rohan, do you have a current visa?

0:28:160:28:19

I have applied for bridging visa. I...

0:28:220:28:26

I am immunologist.

0:28:260:28:28

When I get visa, I will get job.

0:28:280:28:30

Rohan Asad, you are an unlawful citizen

0:28:310:28:34

under Section 48 of the Migration Act...

0:28:340:28:36

As a result, you will be taken to a detention centre.

0:28:360:28:38

No. No. Please. Please!

0:28:380:28:40

Please don't let them send me back! Please. Please. Please, don't!

0:28:400:28:43

Uniforms took a man who gave his name as Rumi to St Jude's

0:29:040:29:07

just after midnight.

0:29:070:29:09

Well, that's the time of death. Does that leave him off the hook?

0:29:090:29:12

Wriggling.

0:29:120:29:13

But Haris's phone records show that he took a call

0:29:130:29:16

right at the time that Rohan said.

0:29:160:29:17

You think that's enough to exonerate him, do you?

0:29:190:29:21

They are a very cute couple.

0:29:330:29:35

Yeah.

0:29:380:29:40

Well, it didn't stop him looking for company.

0:29:400:29:42

Jesus.

0:29:440:29:46

Prosecution would have a field day with this.

0:29:460:29:48

Comes across as a stalker.

0:29:480:29:51

OK. We've got a single key, possibly to Haris's.

0:29:510:29:54

We've got a passport, money - not much.

0:29:540:29:56

No leather jacket, no watch, no wallet, no phone.

0:29:560:30:00

No bloodied shoes or garment.

0:30:000:30:02

Lithium carbonate.

0:30:070:30:10

Maybe he's bipolar.

0:30:100:30:11

Well, he'll need his medication.

0:30:110:30:13

Discharge sheet, St Jude's Hospital. 3:10.

0:30:150:30:19

Maybe he IS telling the truth.

0:30:190:30:21

Ah.

0:30:230:30:25

All right. We've got some blood here.

0:30:250:30:27

-Get on the ground right now.

-This is a crime scene.

0:30:290:30:31

-Hey, relax, guys.

-Put the gun down.

0:30:310:30:33

-Back out.

-Relax, guys.

0:30:330:30:35

-We're Bondi detectives, all right?

-You. Up against the wall.

0:30:350:30:37

Oi! You heard my partner. Just get out of our crime scene.

0:30:370:30:40

-Where's your badge?

-Inside pocket.

0:30:400:30:43

You happy?

0:30:440:30:46

All right. So you're Bondi detectives.

0:30:460:30:48

This is ours. What are you doing here?

0:30:480:30:50

Well, we're searching the premises of a murder suspect.

0:30:500:30:53

What are YOU doing here?

0:30:530:30:54

Rohan Asad. He escaped from custody.

0:30:540:30:57

Oh, shit.

0:30:570:30:58

Please tell me you had him in handcuffs.

0:30:580:31:00

You can't even hang on to a frightened student

0:31:000:31:03

and then you come in here, you trample all over the evidence.

0:31:030:31:06

Why don't you piss off?

0:31:060:31:07

Hey. Hey, that's ours, mate.

0:31:070:31:10

Yeah, in your dreams, mate. You can have it when we're done, all right?

0:31:100:31:13

You shouldn't have pulled that on the Feds, Tori.

0:31:210:31:23

They don't know the arse end of a gun.

0:31:230:31:25

You're bloody lucky you didn't get shot.

0:31:250:31:27

Yeah, your attitude didn't really help.

0:31:270:31:29

Thanks for the backup, by the way.

0:31:290:31:31

Yeah, only cowboys are quick to draw their gun.

0:31:310:31:33

If you can't talk your way into a good result, you're no detective.

0:31:330:31:36

Are you calling me a cowboy?

0:31:360:31:38

Well, there were a lot of cows where you worked last.

0:31:380:31:41

Hilarious(!)

0:31:410:31:42

Listen, I don't think Rohan's our man.

0:31:420:31:44

The blood stains on his jeans - it's consistent with his story.

0:31:440:31:48

What, that's your famous intuition again, is it?

0:31:480:31:50

You haven't been straight with us, Eddie.

0:31:580:32:00

And for a coach with wannabe champions,

0:32:000:32:02

that's a bit of a problem.

0:32:020:32:05

What do you want?

0:32:050:32:07

You tell us what you heard

0:32:070:32:09

and what you saw

0:32:090:32:10

and this time, don't leave anything out.

0:32:100:32:13

I've got nothing that's going to help you.

0:32:130:32:15

You've got a good rep as a coach, Eddie.

0:32:150:32:18

Be a shame to have to revoke your licence.

0:32:180:32:21

You can't be a coach if you've been inside.

0:32:210:32:24

Oh, come on.

0:32:240:32:25

I was a stupid hot-head back in those days.

0:32:250:32:29

I want a guarantee this isn't going to cost me my licence.

0:32:310:32:35

Well, I can't give you that until I know what you have.

0:32:350:32:38

It was a bad night. Hot.

0:32:400:32:42

They was fighting upstairs.

0:32:420:32:44

I just get to sleep and I could hear this yelling and moaning.

0:32:440:32:48

I went out to tell the inconsiderate prick to shut the fuck up.

0:32:480:32:52

I couldn't see anyone.

0:32:520:32:53

Coming back inside, I found this.

0:32:540:32:57

When I found out about the murder,

0:33:000:33:02

I thought it looked bad, so I shut up.

0:33:020:33:04

Did you see who dropped it?

0:33:080:33:09

I told you, I didn't see nothing.

0:33:090:33:11

Yeah, you keep it. It's been burning away in here.

0:33:110:33:14

Were you here in 1990?

0:33:140:33:17

Yeah. I've always been here. I've never moved.

0:33:170:33:20

Are you aware there was a murder out there on the rocks?

0:33:200:33:23

He got what he deserved.

0:33:240:33:26

Some local kids got the jack of it and took the faggots on.

0:33:270:33:30

I can't say I blame them.

0:33:300:33:32

Do you know what happened to those kids,

0:33:320:33:34

where they are now?

0:33:340:33:36

No. It was a long time ago.

0:33:360:33:38

They're probably all grown-up, moved away. I don't know.

0:33:380:33:41

Mum always used to give us the same gifts.

0:33:460:33:48

We found a receipt in there for two drinks from the Green Room

0:33:540:33:57

the night your brother was killed.

0:33:570:33:59

Haris doesn't drink alcohol.

0:33:590:34:01

Well, his would be the lime soda, then.

0:34:010:34:04

Any idea who drinks Helles Lager?

0:34:040:34:06

No.

0:34:060:34:08

You caught the Persian prick yet?

0:34:080:34:10

We've spoken to him.

0:34:100:34:12

My uncle wants to kill him.

0:34:130:34:15

Yeah, well, tell your uncle that's a very bad idea.

0:34:160:34:19

Just be patient and we'll get whoever did this, OK?

0:34:190:34:21

What do you mean, "We'll get him"?

0:34:210:34:24

I thought you already had him.

0:34:240:34:25

You had him and you let him go?!

0:34:270:34:29

He's just a suspect for now.

0:34:290:34:31

Punter comes in, orders an unusual drink. You tend to remember that.

0:34:430:34:47

Monday night. 9pm.

0:34:470:34:49

Lime soda, Helles Lager. Ring any bells?

0:34:490:34:52

Lime soda was hot. He flirted, so I knew he was interested.

0:34:560:35:00

-Then Helles Lager turns up.

-Can you describe him?

0:35:000:35:02

Helles Lager?

0:35:020:35:04

Pumped. Dark hair. Nervous.

0:35:040:35:08

They weren't close.

0:35:090:35:11

Which made me happy, cos I quite fancied lime soda.

0:35:110:35:14

He's dead.

0:35:140:35:16

That's a shame. He was cute.

0:35:160:35:18

What about this man? Have you seen him?

0:35:180:35:21

Yeah, I've seen him. Not for me.

0:35:210:35:23

Liam, fuck off. You too.

0:35:230:35:26

Mr Hampton,

0:35:260:35:28

we'd like to have a look at your CCTV footage for Monday night.

0:35:280:35:31

Would you? You got a warrant?

0:35:310:35:34

It would be in your interest to help us out.

0:35:340:35:36

Don't tell me what my interest is

0:35:380:35:41

unless it's hot sex and you're willing.

0:35:410:35:44

Oh, righto. Righto!

0:35:440:35:46

Don't fucking touch me.

0:35:460:35:49

-Was that entirely necessary, Tori?

-Yes. It was.

0:35:530:35:56

Yeah, well, you just blew any chance we had of getting the CCTV footage.

0:35:560:36:01

By the time we get a warrant, any CCTV footage he has will be wiped.

0:36:010:36:05

If he has any, which I doubt.

0:36:050:36:07

Rohan Asad has a prison record in Iran.

0:36:520:36:54

He was arrested January 2003 for sodomy.

0:36:540:36:57

He was imprisoned for two years, transferred to hospital,

0:36:570:37:00

released on bail somehow.

0:37:000:37:01

Old Rohan escapes and he finds his way here.

0:37:010:37:04

After all he's been through,

0:37:040:37:06

it doesn't make sense that he'd kill someone

0:37:060:37:08

and risk being sent back to that kind of persecution.

0:37:080:37:12

Yeah, but if it's a crime of passion then he wasn't thinking at all.

0:37:120:37:15

Sir, the bloodstains on Rohan's jeans,

0:37:150:37:18

they are consistent with him kneeling down.

0:37:180:37:21

There is no other blood splatter.

0:37:210:37:22

He has a strong alibi for the time of death.

0:37:220:37:25

I know you don't think Rohan had anything to do with this, Lustigman,

0:37:250:37:27

but everything points to it.

0:37:270:37:29

SHE SIGHS

0:37:310:37:33

OK, sir, but this past murder at Cardinal Park - it bothers me.

0:37:330:37:38

I can't find any trace of the man who went down for it.

0:37:380:37:40

-Adamski?

-Yeah.

0:37:400:37:42

What if there's a link with him and Eddie Mac?

0:37:420:37:46

I'd like to follow up with the investigating officer, er, Chalmers.

0:37:460:37:50

Chalmers.

0:37:500:37:52

You'll get nothing from him.

0:37:520:37:53

He left the job under a cloud.

0:37:530:37:55

Is it odd that Adamski's just disappeared?

0:38:000:38:03

Hey, no, no. Tori. Tori, Tori, don't.

0:38:060:38:09

You're just going to antagonise him.

0:38:090:38:11

HE GRUNTS

0:38:260:38:28

It's been a while since someone on the job came asking for help.

0:38:280:38:31

Since the Royal Commission.

0:38:310:38:33

You nailed Adamski for the murder of Greg Mills back in 1990.

0:38:370:38:41

We got lucky. Someone had a conscience.

0:38:430:38:46

Do you have any idea where Adamski is now?

0:38:480:38:50

Feeding the daisies.

0:38:500:38:52

I had a deal with his silk.

0:38:530:38:55

He had information about other deaths,

0:38:550:38:57

but I didn't get to close the books

0:38:570:38:59

before they found him hanging off a shower.

0:38:590:39:02

Now, I can't find any records of him deceased or alive.

0:39:020:39:05

He had a sex change while he was inside.

0:39:050:39:08

-What?

-Yeah, he got the chop.

0:39:080:39:10

Yeah. If you go looking, you'll find him under a different name.

0:39:120:39:15

Oh.

0:39:150:39:17

There was an under-age who went down with him.

0:39:180:39:21

A Brett O'Donahue.

0:39:210:39:23

They were the two I nailed.

0:39:230:39:25

But the thugs who I believe were responsible said they weren't there.

0:39:270:39:32

Well, sometimes you get what you can and call it a good day.

0:39:330:39:36

-How old were you in '89?

-Oh, primary school.

0:39:400:39:43

Poofter bashing was a sport back then.

0:39:430:39:45

A blood sport.

0:39:450:39:48

Gangs of youths up and down the coast.

0:39:480:39:50

Hunting for prey.

0:39:520:39:54

But don't make the mistake of thinking all these lads were underclass.

0:39:570:40:00

Some of them were from decent families.

0:40:000:40:03

There was a gay beat at Cardinal Park

0:40:050:40:07

and one of these gangs, the Pointers -

0:40:070:40:11

Shark Point, White Pointers, who knows? -

0:40:110:40:14

took to the sport with a vengeance...

0:40:140:40:16

..led by a vicious kid called Kyle Hampton, aka Hammers.

0:40:180:40:24

You're kidding. He runs the Green Room.

0:40:240:40:26

That's where our victim had his last drink.

0:40:260:40:28

Yeah. Hammers was a charismatic prick.

0:40:280:40:31

He should have been locked away 25 years ago.

0:40:310:40:34

He thinks he's invincible.

0:40:340:40:36

-My God. There's so many.

-Nearly 70.

0:40:440:40:47

Disappearances, assaults, suicides.

0:40:470:40:52

After a while, you see the pattern.

0:40:520:40:54

Why weren't these acted on?

0:40:540:40:57

Well, you tell me.

0:40:570:40:58

These men were assaulted and killed

0:40:580:41:01

and no-one was ever charged?

0:41:010:41:03

That's right.

0:41:030:41:05

Are you saying there was a cover-up?

0:41:100:41:12

I don't know.

0:41:120:41:14

There was a climate of fear around Aids back then.

0:41:140:41:17

The Grim Reaper ads had everyone terrified.

0:41:170:41:19

Shouldn't this be in archives?

0:41:220:41:25

Back then, it was a weapon used in a suspected assault,

0:41:250:41:29

so it didn't end up in the evidence lock-up.

0:41:290:41:32

I had my suspicions, so I hung onto it.

0:41:320:41:35

These leather bindings - they're on the club that we found.

0:41:380:41:41

Where did you get this?

0:41:410:41:43

Hammers and his future footy star mate Toohey, drunk on Bondi Beach.

0:41:430:41:47

Toohey, the Friday game show guy?

0:41:470:41:50

Who else?

0:41:500:41:51

Is this blood?

0:41:530:41:55

It is.

0:41:550:41:57

No victim came forward, but then they often didn't.

0:41:570:42:01

That's why that never made it to court.

0:42:010:42:03

December 24, 1989.

0:42:040:42:07

How's Will?

0:42:300:42:32

Once I wrestled the console from him, fine.

0:42:320:42:34

Sleeping like a baby.

0:42:340:42:36

Hey, do you remember the Grim Reaper ad?

0:42:410:42:43

'At first, only gays and IV drug users

0:42:540:42:57

'were being killed by AIDS.

0:42:570:42:59

'But now we know every one of us could be devastated by it.

0:42:590:43:03

'If not stopped, it could kill more Australians than World War II.'

0:43:060:43:11

How old were you in 1989?

0:43:160:43:18

-19.

-Yeah.

0:43:190:43:21

And out.

0:43:210:43:23

You know my dad sent me to a shrink to try and fix the problem?

0:43:240:43:28

THEY CHUCKLE

0:43:280:43:30

Hey, here I am, gay and a happier man than he ever was.

0:43:300:43:33

Cheers to that.

0:43:330:43:35

So you were 19, out, in Bondi.

0:43:390:43:43

Yeah.

0:43:430:43:45

-Were you ever attacked?

-By whom?

0:43:450:43:47

Gang.

0:43:490:43:50

Maybe the police.

0:43:510:43:52

You want to see how it was?

0:43:550:43:57

Mardi Gras.

0:44:020:44:04

The first one. 1978.

0:44:040:44:06

'..unfortunate these sort of things happen.

0:44:060:44:09

'I think it's unfortunate that a couple of policemen

0:44:090:44:11

'had to receive hospital attention.'

0:44:110:44:13

Ten years later, it was better.

0:44:130:44:15

But we were still fighting.

0:44:160:44:18

Hey...is that Shane?

0:44:200:44:24

Mm-hm.

0:44:260:44:27

My God. He's so young.

0:44:330:44:35

What happened to him?

0:44:450:44:47

He drowned.

0:44:480:44:49

We searched Christmas Day, Boxing Day.

0:44:510:44:54

And then a life-saver found him.

0:44:540:44:56

Were there any signs of violence?

0:45:010:45:03

You know what happens to a body that's been in the water for two days.

0:45:040:45:08

Your father just...protected you from those details.

0:45:100:45:14

But wh-what did the coroner's report say?

0:45:180:45:20

You'd have to ask Don.

0:45:220:45:24

It's always the good swimmers who drown.

0:45:410:45:43

But there WAS an investigation?

0:45:440:45:47

Yeah, of course there was a bloody investigation.

0:45:470:45:50

He went swimming, he drowned.

0:45:500:45:52

Where did he go in?

0:45:530:45:55

Why does it matter where he went in?

0:45:550:45:57

Did anyone mention Cardinal Park or Shark Point?

0:46:000:46:04

Shane was a happy boy.

0:46:090:46:11

Got caught in a bastard rip.

0:46:110:46:13

The ocean took him.

0:46:130:46:14

'This is a recorded interview for police records.

0:46:190:46:23

'Can you state your name for the camera?'

0:46:230:46:25

Yeah. Brett Roger Ian O'Donahue.

0:46:250:46:28

Martin Adamski.

0:46:280:46:30

We saw the guy walking down. Spoke to him.

0:46:300:46:33

Told him I'd give him a blowie, so he came with me.

0:46:330:46:36

The poof got his pants down around his ankles.

0:46:370:46:40

'He was heaps stiff and he grabbed my cock

0:46:400:46:43

'and Adamski came from behind him and smacked him over the head.

0:46:430:46:46

'What with?

0:46:460:46:48

'A lead pipe.

0:46:480:46:49

'How many times did you hit Mr Mills?

0:46:490:46:51

'Nah, I told you before. Adamski laid into him.

0:46:510:46:55

'Show me how many times you hit him.'

0:46:550:46:57

TORI SCOFFS

0:46:570:47:00

"Bit of a push, bit of a shove"?

0:47:000:47:01

'What were you doing, Brett, while this was happening?

0:47:010:47:04

'Pulled my pants up and I started kicking him in the face.

0:47:040:47:07

'He stood up and started backing away from us,

0:47:090:47:12

'straight over the cliff.

0:47:120:47:13

'I'm 14. He grabbed my cock.

0:47:150:47:18

'He's in the wrong, right?'

0:47:180:47:20

A lead pipe with leather bindings.

0:47:210:47:24

Similar weapon found in the same location

0:47:240:47:26

that we found the club that killed Haris.

0:47:260:47:28

So we've got Cardinal Park, Shark Point, three bodies

0:47:280:47:31

here, here and here.

0:47:310:47:34

We've got Greg Mills, found on the rocks,

0:47:340:47:37

killed by Adamski and O'Donahue.

0:47:370:47:40

There's Dr Peter Levy - he's also found on the rocks.

0:47:400:47:44

Reported as suicide, but forensics have him with defensive wounds

0:47:440:47:48

and under his nails, skin.

0:47:480:47:51

Pre-DNA.

0:47:510:47:52

Yeah, well, that'd be useful if we ever find it.

0:47:520:47:55

Yeah. Wouldn't hold your breath.

0:47:550:47:57

Then you have Ned Davies.

0:47:570:47:59

He went for a walk in Cardinal Park, disappeared December 17th, 1989.

0:47:590:48:05

We do not have a body for him.

0:48:050:48:07

Nick, the numbers are growing.

0:48:080:48:10

We've got one murder 26 years later.

0:48:110:48:14

Well, O'Donahue was released from Silverwater a year ago.

0:48:140:48:17

Well, let's find out where he is now.

0:48:170:48:20

Rohan Asad's blood sample is a DNA match for the semen

0:48:200:48:23

found on the victim.

0:48:230:48:24

HE SOBS

0:48:390:48:40

Slow down. It's not a bloody race.

0:48:580:49:01

PHONE RINGS

0:49:030:49:05

Rohan.

0:49:120:49:13

'Are you there?'

0:49:150:49:16

Rohan, listen, I have your medication and I think you need it,

0:49:180:49:22

so why don't you tell me where you are

0:49:220:49:24

and I can come and pick you up, OK?

0:49:240:49:26

Rohan, I read your case file and I know what you suffered in Iran.

0:49:300:49:35

99 lashes.

0:49:380:49:40

'Imprisonment.'

0:49:410:49:43

My own father betrayed me.

0:49:430:49:46

I understand why you might fear the police.

0:49:460:49:50

'But...I'm going to ask you to trust me, OK?'

0:49:500:49:54

Yeah, just tell her to keep talking. Can you guys go any fucking faster?

0:49:540:49:58

Everything that you tell us, it helps us put the picture together.

0:50:010:50:06

'Rohan, did you have sex with Haris the night he was killed?'

0:50:070:50:10

We swim in the day.

0:50:110:50:13

'I go with him. Play music.

0:50:150:50:18

'Have sex.'

0:50:200:50:21

But after, he say never.

0:50:220:50:25

He will never tell his family that he is homosexual.

0:50:250:50:28

What kind of life is this?

0:50:300:50:32

A life of secrets.

0:50:330:50:34

That's good, Rohan. Thank you for telling me those details.

0:50:360:50:40

But I'm going to need you to come into the police station.

0:50:400:50:43

So you can lock me up?

0:50:430:50:45

'Shave my head, torture me?'

0:50:450:50:47

Rohan, where are you, exactly?

0:50:470:50:50

I want your word. You will let me walk free.

0:50:500:50:53

Rohan, can we at least talk face-to-face?

0:50:550:51:01

I... I can see police on the beach.

0:51:050:51:09

OK.

0:51:110:51:14

Rohan, listen. I need you to come out with your hands up

0:51:140:51:18

and I can promise you that no-one's going to hurt you, OK?

0:51:180:51:22

Nick!

0:51:560:51:58

Nick, he's left-handed. Left-handed.

0:51:580:52:01

Rohan!

0:52:010:52:03

-Put that knife down now!

-Rohan!

0:52:030:52:05

Drop that knife!

0:52:050:52:07

-Rohan, it's Tori.

-Drop the fucking knife now.

0:52:070:52:09

-You're OK.

-I did not hurt Haris.

0:52:090:52:11

-I know.

-Back away, Tori.

0:52:110:52:13

I know you didn't. Don't spook him!

0:52:130:52:15

We just want to talk to you, OK?

0:52:150:52:17

But I'm going to need you to put the knife down, all right?

0:52:170:52:20

Put the fucking knife down now!

0:52:200:52:22

You're OK. Look at me.

0:52:220:52:24

Look at me. It's all right.

0:52:240:52:26

Fuck.

0:52:260:52:28

You put the knife down now, Rohan, and you let her go!

0:52:280:52:31

It's all right. It's all right.

0:52:310:52:33

Rohan, I know that you don't want to hurt me.

0:52:330:52:36

Let her go, Rohan.

0:52:360:52:38

You talk to me and I can protect you, OK?

0:52:380:52:41

I can keep you safe.

0:52:410:52:43

I know this man. He needs medication.

0:52:440:52:48

Hold your fire. Hold....

0:52:480:52:49

I will not... I will not go back to hell. I won't!

0:52:490:52:52

Listen to me, OK?

0:52:520:52:53

Now, we can have a conversation, can't we?

0:52:530:52:55

Yeah? And I can keep you safe. Yeah?

0:52:550:52:59

I can protect you. That's right.

0:52:590:53:01

You're doing a really good job now.

0:53:010:53:03

I'm going to slowly, slowly turn around.

0:53:030:53:06

Yeah? You're OK. You're OK.

0:53:060:53:08

You look at me. It's all right.

0:53:080:53:10

Eyes to me, Rohan. You're OK. You're OK.

0:53:100:53:13

We're going to keep you safe.

0:53:130:53:15

But to do that, I need to get the knife out of your hand,

0:53:150:53:19

OK?

0:53:190:53:21

I'm going to take the knife...

0:53:210:53:23

out of your hand...
