Australian History

[DrDuck]

I thought it might have been the Bogle/Chandler case, but that was in 1963, not 1961.

My Bad, :8
Its yours Doc, I was thinking of the Bogle/Chandler case. I miss typed the year.

I was too intent of framing the question and didnt check the dates.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogle–Chandler_case

I tend to favour the swamp gas theory. It seems the most plausible.

Sorry everyone

Over to you Doc

 

[DrDuck]

Na mate, xcvator nominated the correct answer before me, so it's over to him!

 

[Balmain Bob]

Thanks DrDuck,
Im off to spec savers,

I did not see his post when I scrolled down the list

 

[xcvator]

Who am I, I shot dead my very good friend who was a policeman ?

 

[DrDuck]

Well, Senior Constable Bill Crews was accidentally shot by a colleague during a drug raid in south west Sydney in 2010, but I suspect you are looking for an older case...

 

[xcvator]

No prize there Duck and yes

 

[xcvator]

Another clue. I did it very deliberately, it was not an accident

 

[xcvator]

Another clue
I avoided capture for 3 years mostly because my mob thought I had mystical powers

 

[xcvator]

No One ? ok another clue
I could disappear into the ground in what is now a famous tourist attraction in WA.

 

[xcvator]

After I was shot and killed my head was cut off and paraded around Derby in WA

 

[mardymoose]

was it Jandamarra?

 

[xcvator]

Bingo, your turn Mardy

 

[mardymoose]

I was well known for my chosen job in Queensland way back when

Russ Hinze "the minister of many things" and amongst those Minister of Racing.

[mardymoose]

sorry Casper,
I will give you another clue
I was an indigenous Australian

 

[xcvator]

I'll try Jerry Jerome

 

[Rockhunter62]

I would think by the few clues that we have that it would be Galmarra (Jackey Jackey). Edmund Kennedy's guide and companion.

Cheers

Doug

 

[mardymoose]

All good guesses
Will give another clue
