The Deadwood Dick Murders — Part One
Forgotten Australia - A podcast by Forgotten Australia
Categories:
Deadwood Dick was the first pop culture superhero – 50 years before Batman — and he was the first such character to spark widespread moral condemnation as a "cause" of crime. In Australia from the 1890s, Deadwood Dick was blamed for everything, from truancy to... mass murder. In this two-part episode we look at the role Deadwood Dick did — and didn't —play in three horrific murder cases. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
