About this listen

On a crisp winter morning in July 1960, Sydney awoke to the kind of horror that would haunt the nation for decades. Eight-year-old Graeme Thorne had vanished, snatched off the street just blocks from his new family home in Cremorne. It should have been an ordinary school day. But instead of sitting in his classroom, Graeme was already the victim of a sinister plot, one born not out of personal vendetta, but out of greed and envy for a lottery ticket. His parents' lucky win had turned their lives into headlines… and made their young son a target for ransom. What followed was one of Australia’s most chilling crimes, a case that would grip the country, break hearts, and change laws forever.⚠️ Warning: This video discusses disturbing topics, including violence and crimes.
