The Rack Man - Australian True Crime - Unsolved Mystery
In August 1994, a squid fisherman trawling the lower Hawkesbury River, north of Sydney, pulled a steel crucifix from nine metres below the surface. Strapped to it were the remains of a man.
For twenty-four years, the man had no name. An open coronial verdict. A hundred thousand dollar reward nobody claimed. A forensic reconstruction of a face that matched no one in any database.
This episode covers the discovery, the forensic investigation, the long cold-case years, and the theories that have surrounded this case for three decades.
