What a cock up with the "justice system" that was, must have been terrible what that family went through, 37 years since Azaria's death now isn't it. I was a tiny kid at the time. Gary.

Not in a million years did a dingo sneak into that tent and eat a baby. 🙄

I also talked at length with him at Toranafest where his car was on show. A rather interesting and thoughtful person to yarn with.

Whilst not for me to pass any judgement on history, the judicial system of this country was certainly not congruent in its numerous subsequent verdicts.

 

I understand he car was later sold. Can this fact at least be verified?

Cheers Dave

The National Museum of Australia purchased the car in 2014:

Could've been an Ayer's Rockspider that did it.

 

Sorry to hear about the passing though, he seemed like a nice guy.

That's a shame. It was a privilege to see him in 2010. RIP.
