Murder victim
Graeme Thorne was an Australian child who was kidnapped and murdered in 1960 for part of the money that his parents, Bazil and Freda, had won in a lottery. The crime, regarded as one of the most infamous in Australia's history,[3] caused massive shock at the time and attracted huge public attention,[4][5] and was the country's first well known kidnap for ransom.[6][7] The police investigation that led to the capture and conviction of his murderer, a Hungarian immigrant named Stephen Bradley, is often considered as pioneering, sophisticated and the beginning of modern forensic investigation in Australia.[3][8][9]
