Sydney Stories: True crime stories

  • Summary

  • Three of Sydney's best storytellers — investigative journalists Kate McClymont and Amber Shultz, and Jack the Insider columnist Peter Hoysted — take us on a trip through the harbour city's seedy underbelly.

    Hear the hilarious story of a botched arson job in the city's eastern suburbs by two incredibly stupid criminals. Relive the murder of boxer Bobby Lee by Australia's first gangster Chow Hayes. Look back on a conversation with a young priest in a Sydney seminary about addressing the crimes of the Catholic Church.

    This first Sydney Stories event was hosted by comedian Rebecca De Unamuno at the Judith Neilson Institute, as part of a collaboration between JNI, Phoenix Central Park and Vivid Sydney.

    Listen at JNI is a production of the Judith Neilson Institute for Journalism and Ideas.
