This programme contains some violent scenes, some strong language

0:00:020:00:04

and some scenes which some viewers may find upsetting.

0:00:040:00:06

They were going to throw me off the cliff. Hammers' girlfriend was shouting..."Kill the fag."

0:00:060:00:10

It was a sport back then, and the Pointers took to the sport with a vengeance, led by a Kyle Hampton.

0:00:100:00:14

-TORI:

-Greg Mills. Dr Peter Levy. Ned Davies.

0:00:140:00:16

I knew a couple of the local coppers.

0:00:160:00:18

They weren't interested in Ned. They reckoned he was asking for it.

0:00:180:00:20

-Nick, the numbers are growing.

-26 years later.

0:00:200:00:23

These men were killed just like Haris?

0:00:230:00:26

It's a frenzied assault.

0:00:280:00:29

Yeah, it's like this one was personal.

0:00:290:00:32

The DNA test results you requested? The blood on the lead pipe?

0:00:320:00:34

You're related.

0:00:350:00:37

Shane was not gay.

0:00:370:00:39

OSCAR: You bash innocent men and you throw them to their death.

0:00:400:00:44

Is that right?

0:00:440:00:45

-Sally...

-I don't want anything to do with the cops.

0:00:450:00:47

I don't want anything to do with Hammers.

0:00:470:00:49

There's someone luring people with that app and then killing them.

0:00:490:00:52

You shouldn't be on it yourself.

0:00:520:00:53

-Your Thrustr guy. He's online.

-Wh...what?!

0:00:530:00:57

-MAN:

-Tori, it's not Hammers.

0:00:570:00:59

-TORI:

-Oscar!

0:01:200:01:22

NICK: Pulse is steady. Ambos should be here soon.

0:01:240:01:27

Oscar!

0:01:280:01:29

-WOMAN:

-I was having a smoke...

0:01:290:01:31

Oscar!

0:01:310:01:33

..and saw this fella waiting for someone,

0:01:330:01:35

then this other fella arrives.

0:01:350:01:36

Oscar!

0:01:360:01:38

Then I heard a thud and a groan and I called out, "Everything all right?"

0:01:380:01:41

Can you move? Now! Move!

0:01:410:01:44

Then I walk around and see him lying there.

0:01:440:01:46

Oscar, can you hear me? Oscar.

0:01:460:01:48

I saw a boy killed here. Exact same spot. Back in the struggle days.

0:01:480:01:53

He died in my arms. You cops didn't give a damn!

0:01:530:01:58

-MAN:

-Step back, please.

0:01:580:01:59

Fuckin' bastards.

0:01:590:02:01

Could have been him.

0:02:160:02:17

Well, we need you to be certain.

0:02:190:02:21

It was dark!

0:02:210:02:23

What about weapons?

0:02:230:02:25

He had something in his fist. Not a gun or a knife, but, um...

0:02:250:02:29

No.

0:02:300:02:32

It was HIM.

0:02:320:02:34

He's a thug, sir.

0:02:380:02:40

He was a thug when he was a kid

0:02:400:02:42

and he's a thug now.

0:02:420:02:44

You can't turn a blind eye forever.

0:02:440:02:46

I beg your pardon?

0:02:480:02:49

I've come across old paperwork that's left me with some questions.

0:02:510:02:55

Old charge sheets. Charges dropped on your authority.

0:02:550:02:58

You called me here in the middle of the night to tell me that?

0:02:580:03:02

HE CHUCKLES

0:03:020:03:04

Who the bloody hell do you think you are?

0:03:040:03:06

-Is he an informant?

-That's classified.

0:03:060:03:08

Hammers is a businessman.

0:03:100:03:12

He's got a local bar, and intel suggests that he's involved

0:03:120:03:15

in the O'Donohues' drug network, but nothing's proven.

0:03:150:03:17

Look, boss, everybody knows

0:03:190:03:21

you've got an impeccable record for drug busts.

0:03:210:03:23

Now, maybe Hammers helped you get those and you can't say.

0:03:230:03:27

Well, we all understand that.

0:03:270:03:29

But Hammers is in deep shit,

0:03:300:03:33

and sometimes you've just got to cut your informants loose.

0:03:330:03:36

-I'll tell you tomorrow.

-We need to go tonight.

0:03:400:03:43

What do you hope to find?

0:03:430:03:44

A club with Oscar's blood on it would be pretty useful, sir.

0:03:440:03:48

There's no way I'm going to ring a magistrate

0:03:480:03:50

in the middle of the bloody night on such flimsy hope.

0:03:500:03:53

Hammers, he's a manipulative piece of work,

0:03:530:03:56

but the sick fuck we're after is something else altogether.

0:03:560:04:00

DOOR LOCKS

0:04:230:04:25

-WOMAN:

-Rhys?

0:04:280:04:30

Coming.

0:04:340:04:36

Where were you last night?

0:04:420:04:45

At work.

0:04:470:04:49

I worry about leaving you, Rhys.

0:05:030:05:06

You should get yourself a nice girl.

0:05:090:05:13

Like you?

0:05:200:05:22

No, where are you going?

0:05:360:05:37

Thanks.

0:05:430:05:44

That the hospital?

0:05:460:05:47

Yeah. Brain scan's normal.

0:05:470:05:49

-They'll discharge Oscar today.

-Good.

0:05:490:05:51

That's a warrant for Hammers.

0:05:510:05:53

You control your emotions, and you, don't get cocky.

0:05:530:05:55

Either of you fuck me around,

0:05:550:05:57

I'll drop-kick your arses right out of here.

0:05:570:05:59

Where was your husband last night?

0:06:130:06:15

At the Green Room, then home with me.

0:06:150:06:18

Where is he now?

0:06:180:06:20

No idea. We lead independent lives.

0:06:200:06:22

What time did he get in last night?

0:06:220:06:24

Don't know. I was asleep.

0:06:240:06:26

Oh, are you a smoker, Cheryl?

0:06:280:06:29

Uh, I'm a fitness trainer. They're Kyle's.

0:06:310:06:33

What's this?

0:06:340:06:36

A sex toy?

0:06:380:06:39

Fancy dress night at the club.

0:06:390:06:42

Yeah, I heard the fancy dress doesn't stay on long.

0:06:420:06:44

These are illegal.

0:06:450:06:47

Nick?

0:06:500:06:52

Do you or your husband have any fur garments in the house?

0:06:520:06:56

I belong to an organisation that's against cruelty to animals.

0:06:560:06:59

TORI LAUGHS Just going to continue the search.

0:06:590:07:01

Please go. When Kyle turns up, I'll tell him to call you.

0:07:010:07:04

Oh, you thought we just wanted to talk to Kyle? No, no, no, no, no.

0:07:040:07:08

Where were YOU Christmas Eve 1989?

0:07:080:07:10

A man was killed. I know you were there. I have a witness.

0:07:100:07:13

You can't rely on the words of a madwoman. She's insane!

0:07:150:07:18

You have no idea who my witness is.

0:07:180:07:20

The past is the past. We've all done things we regret.

0:07:220:07:24

And each morning, we are born again a new person.

0:07:240:07:26

-I'm not the person I was yesterday.

-No, no, no.

0:07:260:07:28

You don't get to get off the hook by mouthing some half-baked philosophy.

0:07:280:07:31

You really want to pay for Hammers?

0:07:310:07:33

You need to talk to me, Cheryl.

0:07:350:07:37

I'm racking my brain. Nothing's coming to me.

0:07:380:07:41

Watching a murder and doing nothing to prevent it

0:07:410:07:44

leaves you equally culpable.

0:07:440:07:46

A young man was bashed and you were heard screaming, "Kill the faggot."

0:07:480:07:53

What kind of a person does that?

0:07:530:07:55

Let me go.

0:07:580:07:59

Why does your husband have a gun beside the bed?

0:08:010:08:04

In case he meets you on the beach.

0:08:060:08:08

-PEEL:

-One firearm. That's all you found.

0:08:160:08:18

Can you at least tell me it was unlicensed?

0:08:180:08:20

Uh, we're not sure what the weapon used on Oscar Taylor was yet, boss.

0:08:200:08:23

-Any blood?

-Uh, not to the naked eye. It could have been wiped clean.

0:08:230:08:26

But the Thrustr killer,

0:08:260:08:28

he definitely met one or more victims at the Green Room.

0:08:280:08:30

Hammers is connected, but we're just not sure how yet.

0:08:300:08:32

Well, pull your fingers out, will you?

0:08:320:08:34

The public want the head of the prick who topped Toohey.

0:08:340:08:36

-They don't want false trails.

-Yes, boss.

0:08:360:08:39

Hey, Tori.

0:08:410:08:43

Have a look at those.

0:08:440:08:45

I appropriated them - sublegally. They weren't on the warrant.

0:08:450:08:48

Hmm. O'Donohue brothers.

0:08:480:08:51

And the Pointers. Hmm.

0:08:510:08:54

Do we know who this is?

0:08:540:08:55

Dunno.

0:08:570:08:58

Hey. Any wolves at Hammers'?

0:08:580:09:01

Oh, I'm tempted to say yes, but no. Why?

0:09:010:09:04

The lab just came back with the results on that fur.

0:09:040:09:08

All right.

0:09:080:09:11

"Arctic wolf."

0:09:110:09:13

Found in Canada.

0:09:150:09:17

Beautiful animal. Predator.

0:09:170:09:19

-Brenda, you're a legend!

-I know.

0:09:190:09:22

"The arctic wolf hunts alone or in packs.

0:09:220:09:25

"It may look like a loner,

0:09:250:09:26

"but the wolf may be out seeking prey for the pack

0:09:260:09:29

"or looking to make its own pack.

0:09:290:09:31

"Only the alpha male can mate."

0:09:310:09:33

-SALLY:

-Please don't ask me about the past.

0:09:450:09:48

Sally. You can't stay quiet forever.

0:09:480:09:52

If you covered up a crime, you're part of it.

0:09:520:09:55

No matter how long ago it was.

0:09:550:09:57

How do you want to appear in court,

0:09:590:10:01

as a witness or as an accessory to murder?

0:10:010:10:04

Cos that one can carry a life sentence.

0:10:040:10:07

Just give me something so I can say you were cooperative, all right?

0:10:080:10:14

Can you tell me who these people are?

0:10:140:10:16

That's, um...Cheryl, me, Hammers,

0:10:190:10:22

Brett, Terry,

0:10:220:10:24

Adamski,

0:10:240:10:25

uh, Tomcat...

0:10:250:10:27

-Uh, that's Thomas Katz?

-Yeah.

0:10:270:10:29

And who's this young boy here?

0:10:290:10:32

Um...

0:10:330:10:35

It...it wasn't like there was a regular gang, you know?

0:10:350:10:38

Hammers would pick up random kids,

0:10:380:10:39

feed them fish and chips, make them feel special.

0:10:390:10:41

The kid was such a weed. What was his name? Um...

0:10:420:10:45

Pee-Sticks.

0:10:450:10:47

Pee-Sticks.

0:10:480:10:49

Do you remember his proper name?

0:10:490:10:51

Mmm...

0:10:510:10:53

No, he was just a skinny kid who did Hammers' errands. I don't...

0:10:540:10:57

I think he was a... relative of Hammers'.

0:10:570:11:00

Do you think he would have witnessed any of the murders?

0:11:000:11:03

Sally. These secrets, they must be driving you crazy.

0:11:090:11:14

Imagine what it's doing to the families of the victims.

0:11:150:11:19

Imagine if it was your son.

0:11:220:11:24

-BOY:

-Mum?

0:11:280:11:30

What's going on?

0:11:310:11:32

Nothing.

0:11:320:11:34

Um...the detective's just asking me about a missing person.

0:11:350:11:38

SHE COUGHS, GASPS

0:12:260:12:28

SCUFFLING

0:12:360:12:38

-BOY SCREAMS:

-Mum!

0:12:380:12:40

Will!

0:12:400:12:41

TYRES SQUEAL

0:12:560:12:57

Jason! Jason!

0:12:570:13:00

PHONE RINGS

0:13:000:13:02

They've come to the house. They've taken Jason!

0:13:020:13:06

They've taken my son!

0:13:060:13:07

Whatever you think of me, my son's innocent.

0:13:090:13:12

-You've got to get him back.

-OK, Sally, I need you to focus.

0:13:120:13:15

Focus on what you heard and what you saw.

0:13:150:13:17

Um...

0:13:170:13:18

Brett O'Donohue called, said I made a mistake talking to the cops.

0:13:180:13:22

He said Hammers warned him the cops were digging around.

0:13:220:13:26

That, um...that the Pointers were going to be set up

0:13:260:13:29

for the murder of Toohey and some Arab.

0:13:290:13:31

-Payback.

-Payback? Payback for what?

0:13:310:13:33

For...for an act in the past?

0:13:330:13:35

I said it didn't matter what I told you - you already knew the truth.

0:13:350:13:38

He called me a fuckin' bitch and hung up.

0:13:380:13:40

He's a good boy.

0:13:400:13:43

I don't want them getting to him.

0:13:430:13:45

Sally, they are afraid. They're afraid you can put them in prison.

0:13:450:13:49

And that is one way we can deal with them, all right?

0:13:490:13:51

Get my son back. Please.

0:13:510:13:54

Can you do that?

0:13:550:13:56

SHE SIGHS

0:13:560:13:58

MAN SNORTS

0:14:040:14:06

Going to go have a piss.

0:14:060:14:07

Get us a coffee!

0:14:090:14:11

-Oh, fuck off.

-Two sugars!

0:14:110:14:14

Get it yourself.

0:14:140:14:16

Brett! Cops!

0:14:180:14:21

-TORI:

-Hands on your head!

0:14:210:14:23

Hands on your head!

0:14:230:14:25

-Brett!

-NICK: Drop the weapon, Terry!

0:14:260:14:29

Drop the gun now, Terry.

0:14:310:14:33

-PEEL:

-Uh, search the rest of the place.

0:14:400:14:43

Oh, fuck...

0:14:450:14:47

Where's the kid?

0:14:490:14:51

Where is Jason?!

0:14:520:14:54

-Dunno what you're talking about.

-Where is he?!

0:14:540:14:56

-TERRY:

-We're not saying nothing till we get our lawyer.

0:14:560:14:58

All right, Brett? Nothing!

0:14:580:15:00

-PEEL:

-There's enough drugs here

0:15:040:15:06

to keep them out of Bondi till they're pensioners.

0:15:060:15:08

Here. Get a shot of them against the police car.

0:15:080:15:10

-Get the lights?

-Yep.

0:15:100:15:12

Righto.

0:15:120:15:13

Terry's full of himself,

0:15:190:15:20

so I'll take him back to the office and just let him stew a bit.

0:15:200:15:23

You and Lustigman, you try and open up Brett a bit, hey?

0:15:230:15:26

I think our guest, well, he deserves the scenic route.

0:15:280:15:31

Let him enjoy the outside view.

0:15:310:15:33

Cos it's going to be his last.

0:15:330:15:35

This never happened. OK?

0:16:330:16:35

Let's go get the kid.

0:16:380:16:40

Sally, we've got Hammers

0:16:530:16:55

for abduction, assault, deprivation of liberty,

0:16:550:16:57

and when we get the DNA results, murder.

0:16:570:16:59

He's going away for a very long time.

0:16:590:17:02

He won't hurt you or Jason ever again.

0:17:020:17:05

Now will you talk?

0:17:060:17:08

Did you kill Haris Rexhaj?

0:17:140:17:17

No.

0:17:170:17:18

Did you kill Christopher Toohey?

0:17:180:17:20

No way. Toohey was a mate.

0:17:220:17:25

Did you kill Greg Mills?

0:17:290:17:30

I did my time for that.

0:17:330:17:35

Well, your lawyer, she's on her way, um...

0:17:390:17:42

but in the meantime, it would be useful

0:17:420:17:44

if we could go over the Greg Mills murder in 1990.

0:17:440:17:47

HE SIGHS

0:17:490:17:50

-SALLY:

-We were just kids out for a good time.

0:17:500:17:54

This night was different.

0:17:540:17:56

There was this, um...

0:17:560:17:58

..electricity in the air, like there was going to be a storm.

0:17:590:18:03

The boys were preparing...

0:18:030:18:06

like, for a hunt.

0:18:060:18:08

-BRETT:

-Saturday night. You know, what are you going to do?

0:18:090:18:11

We go down the park and bash fags.

0:18:110:18:14

We get money out of it, well, we have a piss-up or something.

0:18:140:18:16

I'm not proud of it, but we weren't the only ones doing it.

0:18:160:18:19

It was up and down the coast.

0:18:190:18:21

Fag-bashing.

0:18:220:18:24

I'm just telling you like it is.

0:18:240:18:27

They'd done it before.

0:18:280:18:30

You could tell.

0:18:300:18:32

It was all mapped out.

0:18:330:18:35

Every move.

0:18:350:18:36

Hey, faggot!

0:18:390:18:41

THEY LAUGH

0:18:410:18:42

He jumped up, lost his glasses stumbling.

0:18:430:18:45

Hammer...Adamski started hitting him.

0:18:450:18:49

Faggot!

0:18:490:18:51

CHERYL: Kill the faggot! Kill the faggot!

0:18:510:18:53

Greg Mills didn't wear glasses.

0:19:010:19:03

That was a man called Ned Davies.

0:19:050:19:07

Turn the tape off.

0:19:110:19:13

I'm not saying nothing till my lawyer gets here.

0:19:140:19:17

He was bleeding pretty bad.

0:19:260:19:28

Hammers was freaking out.

0:19:280:19:30

"We've got to chuck him over."

0:19:310:19:33

I called out.

0:19:350:19:36

"Don't. Please don't."

0:19:360:19:39

And, um...

0:19:410:19:43

..they swung him over the cliff...

0:19:440:19:47

..and let go...

0:19:480:19:49

..and there was a thud.

0:19:510:19:53

Sally, you're doing really well.

0:19:560:20:00

SALLY EXHALES

0:20:050:20:07

The waves were crashing over the rocks.

0:20:070:20:09

Uh, I thought...

0:20:100:20:12

..I hoped...

0:20:140:20:16

maybe it was a dream.

0:20:160:20:18

A bad dream.

0:20:200:20:22

BOYS WHOOP AND LAUGH

0:20:270:20:29

-Sally?

-Mmm?

0:20:350:20:37

Do you recognise...

0:20:380:20:40

any of these men?

0:20:400:20:42

SALLY SIGHS

0:20:450:20:47

It was one of them.

0:20:500:20:51

"Him", Sally.

0:20:510:20:53

The victim was a person.

0:20:530:20:55

-WHISPERS:

-I'm sorry.

0:21:000:21:02

It was him.

0:21:120:21:14

-SOBS:

-He wasn't the first.

0:21:190:21:21

I recognise...him.

0:21:300:21:32

His beautiful black hair.

0:21:350:21:37

SALLY SOBS

0:21:390:21:41

-WHISPERS:

-Sorry.

0:21:450:21:46

-SCOFFS:

-Prisoner! Listen.

0:21:510:21:54

Jason is the son of an old mate of mine. I was taking him fishing.

0:21:540:21:58

-TORI:

-Did you have his mother's permission?

0:21:580:21:59

The kid's old enough to go fishing without a note from his mummy.

0:21:590:22:02

He was dragged out of bed by the O'Donohues at 2am.

0:22:020:22:05

Ah, you see, that's when the fish are biting.

0:22:050:22:07

Do you recognise these leather bindings?

0:22:090:22:11

No, I've never seen that before.

0:22:110:22:13

What about this?

0:22:150:22:17

Fuck. What is that?

0:22:170:22:18

Not mine.

0:22:190:22:21

Huh. Maybe it belongs to your cousin, Pee-Sticks.

0:22:210:22:25

"Pee-Sticks"!

0:22:250:22:26

I haven't got a cousin.

0:22:260:22:28

Do you recognise this boy?

0:22:280:22:30

No.

0:22:320:22:34

He could have been hanging round like a bad smell back in the day,

0:22:340:22:36

but no...

0:22:360:22:38

When you say "hanging around", he was part of your gang?

0:22:380:22:42

-The gang that hunted gay men?

-"Hunted"?

0:22:420:22:45

Whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo! "Hunted"?

0:22:460:22:48

Jesus Christ. Sally tell you that, did she? Hmm? Head case?

0:22:480:22:52

It'll be her word against mine, and she's a nobody.

0:22:520:22:56

So was that fuck-knuckle, who I do not know,

0:22:560:22:58

and where did you get that?

0:22:580:22:59

DNA's a match.

0:22:590:23:01

Do you recognise these men?

0:23:140:23:16

No.

0:23:170:23:19

This is Dr Peter Levy.

0:23:190:23:21

October 1989, his body was found

0:23:210:23:24

at the base of the cliffs at Cardinal Park.

0:23:240:23:26

Did you push him off the ledge?

0:23:260:23:28

No.

0:23:280:23:30

This is Ned Davies.

0:23:310:23:33

December 1989, he went for a walk and he didn't return,

0:23:330:23:37

and I've been hearing stories that he met with his death at your hands.

0:23:370:23:40

HE SCOFFS

0:23:400:23:42

No!

0:23:420:23:43

HE CHUCKLES

0:23:430:23:46

Another young man was killed December 1989.

0:23:460:23:50

It was Christmas Eve.

0:23:500:23:52

The same night that Detectives Chalmers and Peel

0:23:520:23:55

pulled an improvised weapon off you.

0:23:550:23:57

That weapon...had his blood on it.

0:23:580:24:01

And that weapon...

0:24:010:24:03

has your DNA on it.

0:24:030:24:05

Your arrogance might almost be impressive

0:24:120:24:14

if it didn't make me sick.

0:24:140:24:16

And you thought you'd get away with

0:24:160:24:18

all those years of violence and murder

0:24:180:24:20

and it wouldn't matter.

0:24:200:24:22

That no-one would come for you.

0:24:220:24:24

Your brother...

0:24:310:24:33

..got what was coming to him.

0:24:340:24:36

Tori, outside! Now!

0:24:410:24:43

DOOR OPENS, CLOSES

0:24:500:24:53

You picked up Hammers. You had evidence. You did nothing!

0:24:540:24:57

We HAD nothing!

0:24:570:24:59

There was no body. There was no complaint.

0:25:000:25:02

Jesus, come on. It was Christmas Eve.

0:25:020:25:04

I thought the boys got in a bit of a scrap.

0:25:040:25:06

"Bit of a scrap"?

0:25:060:25:08

My father trusted you!

0:25:080:25:10

Did you even read Shane's autopsy report?

0:25:130:25:15

You did!

0:25:190:25:21

You thought it was a suicide!

0:25:220:25:24

Oh, fuck!

0:25:240:25:26

You can't go back in there.

0:25:260:25:27

I can't have you dealing with him or the O'Donohues

0:25:290:25:32

or Oscar Taylor's assault.

0:25:320:25:34

You go back in there, your participation jeopardises

0:25:340:25:37

any charges we want to make against Hammers.

0:25:370:25:40

Murder.

0:25:410:25:42

Davies, Levy and Shane.

0:25:430:25:47

HE SIGHS

0:25:540:25:56

We got him, Dad.

0:26:220:26:24

We got the guy that killed Shane.

0:26:250:26:27

He didn't drown.

0:26:310:26:33

He was murdered because he was gay.

0:26:350:26:37

He was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

0:26:370:26:40

-TORI:

-Are you OK?

0:27:450:27:47

One hell of a headache.

0:27:470:27:48

So, what you were doing?

0:27:500:27:52

You were out there hunting the Thrustr killer all by yourself, huh?

0:27:520:27:55

We got Hammers.

0:27:590:28:01

That's a result for Shane, it's a result for the others.

0:28:010:28:03

That's just it.

0:28:030:28:05

We're still dying, Tori.

0:28:050:28:07

And that piece of shit is responsible.

0:28:070:28:09

You need to promise me you're not going to do anything stupid.

0:28:090:28:13

You have to leave this to us.

0:28:130:28:16

NICK: I thought you were off the case.

0:28:290:28:31

I can't stop thinking about Pee-Sticks.

0:28:310:28:33

Sally said he was related to Hammers. Hammers denies it.

0:28:330:28:36

I'm wondering if somehow he could be a relative of the O'Donohues.

0:28:360:28:40

The only O'Donohues coming up are, um, Terry and Brett.

0:28:500:28:53

And their father, Bert.

0:28:540:28:56

He died inside Long Bay after the stabbing of a brothel owner.

0:28:560:29:00

What about on the mother's side?

0:29:000:29:03

Uh, mother's maiden name was Birnie.

0:29:030:29:06

She was sentenced for handling stolen goods.

0:29:060:29:09

I have seen that name before.

0:29:090:29:11

In here.

HE SIGHS

Tori.

0:29:540:29:55

Rhys Callahan.

0:29:580:30:01

Committed murder, 16, Newcastle.

0:30:010:30:05

Mother - Belinda Birnie, Deborah's sister.

0:30:050:30:07

The victim was a social worker in Newcastle

0:30:090:30:11

who was known for working with troubled youths.

0:30:110:30:13

He was discovered by a neighbour in a blood-splattered room.

0:30:130:30:17

His head had been caved in before being stabbed to death.

0:30:170:30:20

SHE SIGHS

0:30:200:30:21

Graduated from the School of Hammers.

0:30:210:30:23

Hello. He was released on parole three months ago.

0:30:290:30:32

PRINTER WHIRS

0:30:320:30:33

Guess he gave away the surfer look.

LIFEGUARDS CHAT AND CHUCKLE

0:30:540:30:56

-WOMAN:

-Rhys was assigned to me as a juvenile.

0:31:160:31:19

His mother was a prostitute and his father abusive.

0:31:190:31:24

He punished Rhys for being a "sissy boy".

0:31:240:31:27

And in fact was charged for sexual misconduct with a minor,

0:31:270:31:32

but the case never made it to court,

0:31:320:31:33

and Rhys insists his father never touched him.

0:31:330:31:36

Did you believe him?

0:31:360:31:38

He had all the hallmarks of a severely abused boy.

0:31:390:31:42

Rhys can be very charming. Charismatic, plausible.

0:31:450:31:50

He lives calmly in a controlled environment, like the prison,

0:31:510:31:56

but he's manipulative, psychopathic.

0:31:560:32:00

He was 16 when he committed the murder. Did he offer up any excuse?

0:32:010:32:07

The man hit on him and he panicked.

0:32:070:32:10

This signature -

0:32:160:32:19

it doesn't fit with impulsive lashing out.

0:32:190:32:23

He'd taken his time.

0:32:230:32:25

I think he'd fantasised about it.

0:32:250:32:27

When Rhys was 11 years old, he hung around with a youth named Hammers,

0:32:290:32:33

who held sway over a group of boys who hunted and bashed gay men.

0:32:330:32:38

He'd certainly witnessed murder.

0:32:380:32:40

Are we talking about a Kyle Hampton?

0:32:530:32:56

Rhys hated him.

0:32:560:32:58

In fact, a day before the murder, he had gone to visit Kyle Hampton

0:32:580:33:04

and been told to piss off.

0:33:040:33:06

So he went out to prove himself worthy.

0:33:060:33:09

That's why he meets his victims at the Green Room.

0:33:090:33:11

Rhys's dad fell off a cliff just five days after Rhys was released.

0:33:260:33:31

"Death by misadventure."

0:33:310:33:33

Yeah, sounds more like revenge.

0:33:330:33:35

Any address on the parole card?

0:33:360:33:38

Uh, his dad's address was in Gateshead.

0:33:380:33:42

What about the mother?

0:33:420:33:44

There's a Birnie in Ramsgate Ave, Bondi.

0:33:490:33:53

KNOCK AT DOOR

0:34:030:34:06

0:34:210:34:23

No need to be afraid.

0:34:230:34:26

Just want to speak to your son, Rhys.

0:34:260:34:29

Has Rhys seemed...distressed, disturbed at the moment?

0:34:420:34:46

Rhys would never have done what he did

0:34:460:34:49

-if the old man hadn't pushed him!

-SHE BREATHES LABORIOUSLY

0:34:490:34:52

And what has Rhys done? Where is he? Where can we find him?

0:34:520:34:55

Where is he?

0:34:550:34:57

You want Rhys, you find him yourself.

Do you know Christopher Toohey?

0:35:550:35:56

Never met the guy.

0:35:560:35:58

See, Rhys, the problem is, when you, uh...

0:35:580:36:01

when you tell a small lie, it becomes a big lie,

0:36:010:36:03

and then all of a sudden, you're in a big pile of shit.

0:36:030:36:06

Now, see, I thought you and Toohey were both members

0:36:080:36:10

of the Bondi Pointers gang back in '89.

0:36:100:36:13

You remember that far back?

0:36:140:36:16

Can you identify...this person and...that one?

0:36:170:36:22

Well, that was me.

0:36:220:36:24

We just went to Bondi on holidays.

0:36:240:36:27

In '89, I was 11.

0:36:270:36:29

That one was Toohey.

0:36:300:36:32

You can see he's quite a bit older than me.

0:36:320:36:34

Well, Toohey's been murdered.

0:36:360:36:38

And since you knew Toohey...

0:36:380:36:40

..I thought you might know why.

0:36:420:36:43

Well, Toohey wasn't... who he pretended to be, so...

0:36:460:36:51

And what was that?

0:36:510:36:53

HE SIGHS

0:36:530:36:55

Strong. Someone you can look up to. A real man.

0:36:550:36:57

Did you kill Christopher Toohey?

0:37:000:37:02

No.

0:37:020:37:04

Did you kill Haris Rexhaj?

0:37:040:37:06

No.

0:37:060:37:07

Adrian Cohen?

0:37:070:37:09

Who? No.

0:37:090:37:11

But you did kill a man in Newcastle, right?

0:37:120:37:15

Well, he was a...piece of filth who got what was coming.

0:37:150:37:19

How about your father? How did he die?

0:37:190:37:22

He fell off a cliff.

0:37:230:37:25

Did HE have it coming?

0:37:260:37:28

Some might say so.

0:37:280:37:30

Well, we've been talking to your cousins, um,

0:37:310:37:34

and I guess you know that Brett was convicted

0:37:340:37:36

of murdering a gay man in Cardinal Park back in 1990.

0:37:360:37:39

Well, the names of the men that I've asked you about, they were gay men.

0:37:410:37:44

And they were murdered.

0:37:440:37:47

What's this got to do with me?

0:37:470:37:48

Well, there were other murders back in '89, 1990,

0:37:490:37:54

and we have reason to believe that you were a witness to them.

0:37:540:37:57

Now, look, Rhys, we know you were a kid.

0:38:000:38:02

You were easily led.

0:38:020:38:04

See, the problem is, you've got this conviction in Newcastle,

0:38:060:38:09

so it's very easy to say, "It's all his fault,"

0:38:090:38:13

you know, point the finger at you.

0:38:130:38:14

It was such a long time ago.

0:38:170:38:19

Nobody cared back then.

0:38:210:38:23

Why now?

0:38:230:38:25

Have you got Thrustr on your phone, Rhys?

0:38:270:38:29

Why would I use an app for fags?

0:38:310:38:33

Where were you at midnight on January 25th?

0:38:350:38:38

Um...

0:38:400:38:41

HE CLICKS HIS TONGUE

0:38:450:38:46

He's tracking the investigation,

0:39:220:39:24

but there's nothing to actually link him to the killings.

0:39:240:39:28

We're going to have to let this prick go.

0:39:300:39:32

-That's no suicide.

-Uh-uh.

So, where IS your place?

Oh, it's not far.

0:44:010:44:02

HE GROANS

0:44:080:44:10

HE BREATHES WEAKLY

0:44:340:44:40

HE GRUNTS

0:44:460:44:48

The signal's here.

0:45:120:45:13

HE GRUNTS

0:45:130:45:15

The pain goes away.

0:45:300:45:31

HE YELPS

0:45:380:45:40

Did you hear that?

0:45:400:45:42

The phone's down the drain.

0:45:430:45:45

Nick.

0:45:490:45:51

Do we know what brothel Belinda Birnie used to work at?

0:45:510:45:54

0:47:010:47:02

Let him go!

0:47:020:47:03

Let him go or I will shoot!

0:47:050:47:08

You know, I know who you are.

0:47:080:47:10

And your brother, Shane.

0:47:100:47:12

He was my first.

0:47:140:47:16

BOTH YELP

0:47:220:47:24

Nick, talk to me.

0:47:300:47:32

Are you OK?

0:47:320:47:33

Yeah. Yeah, whatever.

0:47:330:47:35

KNOCK AT DOOR

0:48:020:48:04

Hey.

0:48:040:48:05

Well, well done. Well done, you.

0:48:060:48:08

You and Nick. Good work.

0:48:090:48:11

I...I think I know how you feel.

0:48:140:48:16

You don't know how I feel.

0:48:160:48:17

You don't know how any of the families of the victims feel.

0:48:170:48:20

Well, I know I'm a father myself.

0:48:200:48:21

SHE CHUCKLES

0:48:210:48:23

Do you know how many files I have on my desk right now?

0:48:230:48:27

Unexplained gay deaths and assaults

0:48:280:48:32

in Sydney over those years?

0:48:320:48:34

How does that happen?

0:48:340:48:36

Tori. Tori...

0:48:360:48:39

Sometimes...

0:48:400:48:42

things, they just fall through the cracks.

0:48:420:48:44

Oh, "fall through the cracks"? Right, right.

0:48:440:48:46

Or - there was indifference on a grand scale.

0:48:460:48:51

Hammers was your informant.

0:48:510:48:52

You look the other way, you keep your stats up,

0:48:520:48:54

he gets rid of all his enemies.

0:48:540:48:56

If I'd known he'd hurt your brother...

0:48:560:48:58

My brother? Anybody. Anybody!

0:48:580:49:00

Hammers got away with murdering my brother.

0:49:000:49:03

And other men. Good men.

0:49:030:49:05

Listen.

0:49:050:49:07

There were two kids in trouble

0:49:070:49:09

and they had a chance of a good future if I stepped in and helped.

0:49:090:49:11

I chose to do that.

0:49:110:49:13

One turned out to be a hero, the other didn't. I mean...

0:49:130:49:16

..what would you have done?

0:49:170:49:18

My job. I would have done my job.

0:49:180:49:21

It's for the 19 precious years we had you.

0:51:340:51:37

Who you were.

0:51:390:51:41

Who you would have become.

0:51:430:51:44

Son, I'm proud of you.
