Why did it take five minutes for a carload of police officers to attend a call from Jodee Rich when nine parishioners at the Bomaderry Uniting Church had to wait for more than one hour on the police assistance line to report that nine cars parked on church grounds had been broken into, only to give up in disgust when they could not get through? Mr CARR: Why would the Leader of the Opposition mention the name of Jodee Rich—one of her strongest supporters in the business community of New South Wales? When the Government had all but sealed negotiations to locate a One.Tel call centre in Wollongong, the Treasurer enjoyed a tour of the One.Tel offices in Sydney and, thinking the deal was concluded, stopped at the boardroom to have a cup of tea. Mr SPEAKER: Order! I call the honourable member for Wakehurst to order. Mr CARR: Jodee Rich swept in and said that the deal negotiated was off unless the Government could come up with $3 million. When the Treasurer said that that was not the way we do business, Jodee Rich replied, "I'll negotiate with Kerry in March." Jodee Rich was one of that small circle of business leaders in New South Wales who for two years busily touted the Leader of the Opposition for the job she currently has while the distinguished member for Willoughby, who is sitting behind her, thought he was safe. By the way, on the subject of performance bonuses, I hope the Liberal Party is not paying a bonus to the Leader of the Opposition. Mrs Chikarovski: Point of order: The Premier might find it highly amusing that the people of Bomaderry are unable to get assistance from the police assistance line. However, I am sure that the nine parishioners whose cars were vandalised in the marginal seat of South Coast would be interested to hear what the Premier has to say about what he is going to do to fix the problem, rather than trivialise their concerns. Mr CARR: What a pathetic performance by the Opposition on a day when students of Granville South high school are in the gallery. I will seek advice from the Minister for Police. GREATER METROPOLITAN SERVICES IMPLEMENTATION CO-ORDINATION GROUP REPORT Mr McMANUS: My question without notice is to the Minister for Health. What is the Government's response to the report of the Greater Metropolitan Services Implementation Co-ordination Group? Mr KNOWLES: Earlier today I received the report of the Greater Metropolitan Services Implementation Co-ordination Group. The group is chaired by Professor Kerry Goulston and John Blackwell and is made up of 42 doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, consumers and health administrators. The group has consulted with literally more than 1,000 of their colleagues over the past 12 months to develop a single, long-term plan for key metropolitan hospital services in the greater Sydney region. The report is but one component of our work following last year's Health Council report, which focused on the broader issues of chronic illnesses, out of hospital services, rural services, information technology and much more.

  • Reliving the Horrors of the Ivan Milat Case
    Reliving the horrors of the Ivan Milat case John Thompson | ABC, The Drum | Updated 31st August, 2010 "Police are investigating the discovery of human remains found in the Belanglo State Forest". Seven times I said those words as a former police reporter. Twice I broke the news to the world that another body had been discovered. But that was the second half of 1993. This week's news of one more discovery has brought the horror of the backpacker serial killings back to the present. I remember driving into the Belanglo State Forest for the first time. I nearly missed the turn- off. There's only a small sign on the right side of the Hume Highway, heading south from Sydney just past Mittagong. It's a rough dirt track that goes past a homestead. I remember trying to imagine what it must have been like to have been one of the backpackers: Deborah Everist, James Gibson, Simone Schmidl, Anja Habschied, Gabor Neugebauer, Joanne Walters and Caroline Clarke. The sheer terror each of them must have felt when this seemingly pleasant man with small eyes and a beard, who had offered them a lift, suddenly turned off the highway, pulled out a gun and drove into bush far far away from civilisation and any possible help. Knowing that this track, this bush, were some of the last images each of the young backpackers saw gave me more than a slight chill - to this day it still makes me feel sick. What gives someone the compulsion to kill like this? And to do it over and over again? How do they live with themselves? The man who knows most about Ivan Milat and what he did to each of his seven victims is cautioning the public not to draw too many links with the weekend discovery by trail bike riders.

His murderous spree took place over a number of years in the early 1990s. While the film does show something of how Milat is thought to have operated and managed to escape detection for some years, the program is more concerned with the police enquiry (catching Milat); how the investigat- ing team were able to link his movements and behaviour to the murders through a meticulous process of gathering INTRODUCTION evidence and following up earlier leads. Catching Milat is a two-part drama based on the events surrounding the investigation that led to the arrest and conviction of serial killer Ivan Milat. Most characters play the roles of actual people, but certain events and charac- ters have been created or changed for dramatic effect. Incorporating stylised flashbacks and archival footage, Catching Milat is a television mini-series that returns viewers to a time when backpacking was a rite-of-pas- sage for young people eager to explore the world. Ivan Milat was arrested in 1994. Catching Milat is the story of the men who brought him to justice.

  • Belanglo State Forest
    Belanglo State Forest Lucien Alperstein Do we all have the same pasts? If not, do we all exist in the same present? The Belanglo State Forest is a non-native pine plantation surrounded by natural forest. It lies an hour and a half south of Sydney, just west-southwest of Bowral. The first introduced trees, radiata pines, were planted in 1919 (Primary Industries, 2012). I feel it’s common knowledge but just in case you weren’t aware, Ivan Milat is serving seven life sentences and another 18 years after being found guilty of killing seven hitchhikers and dumping their bodies in the Belanglo State Forest (Kennedy and Whittaker, 2001). Belanglo is synonymous with Milat and with misadventure at large. But beyond that dominant reading, Belanglo is a sensual portal back home for Polish and other Eastern European migrants in autumn and yet another stain on our European-Australian flag. 1. Dumping Ground. Belanglo State Forest is where people go to hide the bodies of hitchhikers they kill. Ask anyone. Tell someone you’re hitchhiking and they’ll say you’ll end up at Belanglo. Ron Fry picked me up just past seven in the morning, driving a white ute and wearing an orange hi-vis jacket. “Jesus, Ron!” said a voice over mobile phone loudspeaker. Ron had opened the door to the car and announced that he had just stopped for a hitchhiker. “He’s going to kill you.” “Not I’m not,” I replied. The three of us laughed, and my total physical contact with Ron amounted to one handshake at our meeting and one again at our parting.

  • The Making of an Outlaw
    Link: http://www.futureofmankind.co.uk/meier/gaiaguys/Call.me.Laure.O.htm Be advised that this matter deals with extreme violence, sexual references and adult themes. A message for the REAL backpacker murderers It is quite likely that those involved in the backpacker murders in Belanglo Forest are reading these articles. I have something to say to you. The man serving time for these crimes is innocent of them. At the very least, leave a letter with your attorney to be opened after your demise, or make a deathbed confession, preferably with plenty of witnesses because the State of N.S.W. wants this covered up. After all you won't be the 'famous backpacker murderers' unless you do this, and every serial killer wants attention. I challenge you to contact the good people who run this site, or me, and talk about what you have done. I know you are out there. I am not afraid of you. Most likely you have an interest in the occult and satanism. So who are you scared of? Talk. "Alice Smith" Please scroll right down for late breaking February, 2007 updates on this story which will not go away. - Belanglo Murderer DNA Found on Recent Murder Victim "Ivan Milat was not the only suspect in this case. There were other suspects, in particular one from Wollongong of European origin whose children saw him doing suspicious things. The man from Wollongong had a long history of violence against women and many criminal convictions including convictions for paedophilia. He was obsessed with guns and had been in the armed forces overseas.
