Catching Milat

Catching Milat is a period drama on the Backpacker Murders coming soon to Channel Seven.

Over two compelling episodes, Catching Milat will tell the true story of how the NSW Police Taskforce Air, and in particular Detective Paul Gordon, tracked down and caught Ivan Milat – the man responsible for the infamous Backpacker Murders.

Set against a backdrop of a public alarm, high level government pressure and an international press demanding a result, Catching Milat will be a pacy, physiological thriller – a real life whodunit with very real heroes and villains.

The fascination with this case is endless.

Who'll be watching?

If he decides he wants a day out he demands to see his lawyer.  The request must be granted as soon as practical and it takes at least 3 vehicles and 4 officers to take him to Sydney.  It really is a joke the way he can manipulate the system.

Does anyone know why he gets these privileges?     It's beyond me.

The 'accident' could happen inside.
Probably easier to organise.

Definitely a problem in that family.

Isn't it so that there are more deaths attributed to Milat that can't be proved because no bodies have been found?

Remember the 60 m programme where Milat's SIL claimed he was innocent, regularly visits him and talks on the phone with him.  I wonder if that still happens.   Creepy family indeed.

The world has gone a bit crazy. That man should never see the sun, much less visit Sydney. The powers that be are g**less.

[vicr3000]

Not just not see the sun, be buried 6 foot under.

Agree.

[***super_nova***]

No, i am not going to watch it. 

[azureline**]

I won't be watching it, there is probably nothing in it that we don't already know.

I expect 75% of it to made up drama, given he has never confessed, they don't actually know how it all happened, do they?

I am happy to pay to keep him in maximum security.................his punishment is life in prison. I bet he hates it!

Ivan is in SuperMax in Goulburn and if you knew half of what he gets up to it would make your hair curl.

If he decides he wants a day out he demands to see his lawyer.  The request must be granted as soon as practical and it takes at least 3 vehicles and 4 officers to take him to Sydney.  It really is a joke the way he can manipulate the system.

Lyndal, how do you know he gets outings? I wouldn't think that was possible.

It is not a privilege, it is a right according to our legal system.   No prisoner can be denied legal representation (even when he has been well and truly convicted.)

The whole family knows the system so well that all h*ll would break out if he was denied his "rights".

He also manages to find objects to swallow which necessitates a visit to hospital.  Believe me, many an officer wishes they could be a bit too late finding him and getting him to hospital.
