Episode notes
Most of us dream of winning the lottery, right? We fantasise about the things we'd buy, the jobs we'd quit, and the places we'd see and for Bazil and Freda Thorne, this dream became a reality when the couple $100,000 pounds in the Sydney Opera House Lottery. However, that dream come true quickly turned into a living nightmare when their 8 year old son, Graeme, was kidnapped and held for ransom. What happened next shocked a country to its core and brought a new and unthought of evil right to our doorstep.
Join Belinda over a cuppa or a cocktail as she takes a look at the heartbreaking case of Graeme Thorne and how this young boy's tragic murder paved the way for a safer community for the children of Australia and lottery winners.
