1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 1: The public has had a long held fascination with detectives. 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: Detective sy aside of life. The average person is never 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: exposed her I spent thirty four years as a cop. 4 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: For twenty five of those years I was catching killers. 5 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: That's what I did for a living. I was a 6 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: homicide detective. I'm no longer just interviewing bad guys. Instead, 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 1: I'm taking the public into the world in which I operated. 8 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: The guests I talk to each week have amazing stories 9 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: from all sides of the law. The interviews are raw 10 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: and honest, just like the people I talk to. Some 11 00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: of the content and language might be confronting. That's because 12 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: no one who comes into contact with crime is left unchanged. 13 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: Join me now as I take you into this world. 14 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: In Part two of my chat with former bank Robert 15 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,599 Speaker 1: Doug Morgan, we delve further into his life as a 16 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 1: notorist armed robber, how he and his brother Pete were 17 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: arrested after a police officer was shot during an armed robbery. 18 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: We also discuss how he survived Penridge jail, how he 19 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: turned his life around, and the warning he has for 20 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: others that might consider following the path he took. I 21 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: also asked Doug how he now feels about all the 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 1: people he terrorized during his career as a bank robber. 23 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 1: It was an interesting chat, that's for sure. Okay, Doug Morgan, 24 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: Welcome back to part two of I Catch Killers. 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 2: Hang on, What am I doing on this one? This 26 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: is I'm not a killer? 27 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's a fine life, fine line when you 28 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: walking to a bank or a tab with a gun. 29 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 2: I totally agree, and when I look back the mistake 30 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 2: I made I was a bank teller. I believe that 31 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: anybody behind the counter and a TV or a bank 32 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 2: was trained the same as I was. Because I grew 33 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: up in a crime family, my capacity to handle things 34 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: is probably different to people who have been trained but 35 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: don't have the capacity to handle the actual live situation. 36 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: So I actually believe that they would be about as 37 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 2: stressed as I would be if I was the bank teller. 38 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 2: And a funny little story is I wasn't allowed to 39 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 2: have a gun because I was seventeen when I was 40 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 2: a bank teller. I'd been trained, but I wasn't actually 41 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,359 Speaker 2: physically allowed to have a gun. So I went down 42 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: the street to let's say, an army disposal store, and 43 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 2: I bought the biggest and longest and most offensive looking 44 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 2: letter opener I could have, and used to put it 45 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: on my desk, on my teller's unit. And if you 46 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: try to rob me, I'm going to stab you with 47 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 2: my letter opener. 48 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 1: Well, see, that's the thing when you go in there, 49 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: and that's why I talk about the risk or before 50 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 1: you go in, you do not know how people are 51 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: going to react when confronted by that situation. 52 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: Well, do you want to know how I felt about 53 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 2: all that being a bank teller? How I used to think, 54 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 2: hope they don't shoot me, because I'll probably be on 55 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 2: their side. And now I'll tell a joke that if 56 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: you had to try to rob me in those days, 57 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: I would have went one for you, one for me, 58 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 2: one for you, one for me, and we'll all go 59 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: home happy tonight. 60 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 1: What hope did that bank have had? Did you get 61 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: sacked or did you quit as a talent? 62 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 2: Well, I had to leave with my father. 63 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: Oh that's right. Yeah. 64 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 2: Now you said you want a real scoop, You want 65 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 2: a real scoop. 66 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, give us a scoop. We're always out for a scoop, right. 67 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: I was a brilliant bank teller, and in those days 68 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 2: it wasn't computerized, and it was up to me every 69 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 2: night to balance my books. And because I was pretty 70 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 2: good at it, the number one teller never used to 71 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: check my money, and I started to work this out 72 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 2: that I was pretty well trusted. We were on the 73 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 2: first floor of a building right in the middle of 74 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: the city in Melbourne. In the basement was a ta 75 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: b wow. What one of myself and one of my 76 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 2: knock about mates that was working at the bank who 77 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: became buddies because we were two of the let's say, 78 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: working class boys, you know me and I time the 79 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 2: other boys would say to me, Doggie, you want to 80 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: go down and look at tis in the shops. I go, 81 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 2: what the hell are you talking about? Look at tis? 82 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: I've got one tie, that's it. I got one suit, 83 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: that's it. Leave me alone. Anyway, So what we would 84 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 2: do at lunchtime is we would sort out some bets. 85 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: I would withdraw money from my unit and would make 86 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: a plunge. Now, in the old days, tabs pay you 87 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: out at five point thirty after the day's takings, so 88 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: I couldn't get the money back win or lose in 89 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 2: time to balance my books. So I would have to 90 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 2: falsify nearly every night my bank Telly's unit or would 91 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 2: call it, you know, was a unit, but that would 92 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: money would go back in the safe every night. So 93 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 2: I would falsify in my books most nights to cover 94 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 2: my bedding and the next day I'd get the money 95 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 2: the next lunchtime, so I'd work a day behind. So 96 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: I had the A and Z basically bank rolling Doug 97 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 2: Morgan Punter anything. 98 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: Well, I can't see how that could have gone wrong. 99 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: If you're lost, lucky you had something to get back. 100 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 2: But it did lose once and I had to sign 101 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: because this can be done just in paperwork. Yeah, so 102 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 2: I made a withdrawal the next day once out of 103 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 2: my savings account to balance the books because I only 104 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 2: remember losing once. Yeah, I actually did lose eighty dollars 105 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: out of my own account. You're juggling, but it felt 106 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 2: better when it was theirs. 107 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:36,119 Speaker 1: Well, doesn't hurt as much when you lose someone else's money, 108 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,920 Speaker 1: I suppose. Okay, I want to clarify one thing before 109 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 1: we go into this next part. Your brother's still around, yes, 110 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: and you two are talking. I don't want to cause 111 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: a rift in the family. 112 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 2: He came down to see me actually on the weekend 113 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: at rudolg Bar and Pendridge. 114 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: Okay, it's not going good. Well, talk us through the 115 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: police officer that was shot and Ray Koss. What's a 116 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: factual account of it? When your brother shot Ray Koch? 117 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 2: Okay, I wasn't there. There was never any planning for 118 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 2: shooting people that was off limits. If you got to 119 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 2: that point, you'd failed. You'd failed our rules of engagement. 120 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 2: We had rules of engagement that if the job was 121 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: too hot, you walk away. His ego didn't allow that anyway. 122 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 2: So he drags the copper out of the car. He says, 123 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 2: you're a copper. He takes his car keys off and 124 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: froze into the paddock next next to and shoves the 125 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:40,119 Speaker 2: gun into his stomach. This guy who was driving home, 126 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: innocent copper. And then my brother's got a way of 127 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 2: belittling people when he's got a gun in his hand. 128 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,799 Speaker 2: The next time he goes there, Ray Kosh got close 129 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: to him and the gun was again in the side 130 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: of a person's body, and this time the gun goes off. 131 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 2: The next day he allows another copper to get close 132 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: to him. Gun again goes into the stomach of a 133 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: copper but this time the safety was on and he's 134 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: left handed, so he couldn't get the safety off. According 135 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: to the copper, this was rick hasty. Yeah, forget about 136 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 2: everything else. Just as a common sense person, if you 137 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: keep sticking guns against people's bodies, when does it go off? 138 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, there's consequences and the risk. And you've said 139 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: you always looked at the bank if it's too hot, 140 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: and look at risks and try to mitigate mitigate the risk. 141 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 2: Let's say I've got you. You're a copper. Yeah, Let's 142 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 2: say I've got you. You've got no gun, Yeah, and 143 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 2: I've got a gun. I'd be foolish to let you 144 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 2: come within arms reach of me, wouldn't I. 145 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: Oh, you'd be in trouble if you did. 146 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:49,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, because you're going to have a go. 147 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 148 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 2: Just what my brother did. He used to walk up 149 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 2: and stick the gun in the side of which means 150 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 2: he went to three coppers and allowed all of them 151 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: to be within struggling range. Now, now I have a flip. Look, 152 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 2: I make jest of a lot of things, and sometimes 153 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 2: I even make jest of this. Guns are not for 154 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: wrestling over. 155 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: No, that's very true, very true. 156 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: I tell you something I'm going to tell you something 157 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: that I've never said to anybody. I asked my brother 158 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 2: why he had got out of the search area after 159 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: shooting Raykosh and robbing the bank, and look, I don't 160 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 2: know if it was accidental, you don't know. We'll never know. 161 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 2: I wasn't there. He didn't follow our procedures and continued 162 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 2: and that was the result of him not following our 163 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: procedures of engagement with police. Our rules of engagement should 164 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 2: not have allowed him to even be there when the 165 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 2: police was so hot. But he broke those rules because 166 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: his ego and he being the commander in chief or 167 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: general as he saw himself, he kept changing the rules. 168 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 1: Now that the rule's been the pac that you guys 169 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 1: had made, Yeah, we had rule, We discussed. 170 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 2: Everything was discussed and planned down to the we had 171 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: in the scrub. We had flash torches, not to be 172 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:08,079 Speaker 2: used because a helicopter would see them, but for a 173 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 2: pickup point if it was at nighttime. We have codes, 174 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: and I'll flash you the code if I'm picking you up, 175 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: and you will flash me back a code, even to 176 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: the extent if you don't flash me back the code 177 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 2: and you're in a car, I won't come out because 178 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 2: the coppers might have you in your car. So unless 179 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 2: you give me the real code, I'm not even coming out, 180 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 2: even if I know it's you. So we had over 181 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: a thing really well regimented for the safety of everybody. 182 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 2: Do you think we planned robberies to get caught? We 183 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:42,599 Speaker 2: planned robberies to go home. Now the next day he 184 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: breached your perimeter because O're planning even after shooting a 185 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 2: copper and you flooded the area or you or your 186 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 2: let's say you, well, keep it you, you and me mate, 187 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 2: it's you and me today. All right. 188 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm happy you're getting me excited. I'd like to be 189 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 1: going after you guys. Yeah, okay, we've set up the well. 190 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,239 Speaker 2: I think we can do a movie if I saw you. 191 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: If I draw first, don't draw yours, because I'll let 192 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 2: you go home, but you let me walk as well. 193 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 2: We'll be doing good that day. But the trouble is 194 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 2: you're going to shoot me. Do you know what I 195 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: planned once to make I was going to have on 196 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 2: the back of my bike a rack that was bulletproof 197 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: so you couldn't shoot me as I rode away. 198 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: I think ned Kelly came up with that a few 199 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: years ago or before. 200 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 2: But I'm not a Ned Kelly fan. I paint Ned Kelly, 201 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: but I'm not a fan because he broke my rules too. 202 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: He shot people. 203 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 1: Well, I'm glad you understand that, because I saw the result, 204 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,359 Speaker 1: whether it was in the stick ups or in homicide 205 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,239 Speaker 1: where people get shot, that's devastating. 206 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 2: Absolutely. Now, I said to my brother, you got out 207 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 2: of the search area, you got to the pickup point 208 00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: if it's too hot and I can't get in because 209 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 2: it's too many cops. Because there was a perimeter, and 210 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 2: he broke the perimeter, but he didn't bring he didn't 211 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: break the outside perimeter, so they had a first perimeter. 212 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: It was about ten kilometers, which was normal than those 213 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,559 Speaker 2: days either or the other perimeter, yep outer perimeter was 214 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 2: a lot wider. And I couldn't get back in to 215 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,319 Speaker 2: get him out of the pickup point. And our pickup 216 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 2: point was daylight the next day, because we're working in 217 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: the country. If you're hot, it's the next day. If 218 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: I can't get in because it's too hot. And I 219 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 2: actually went through a roadblock, and I was quick enough 220 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: to work out how to get back outside the roadblock 221 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: that i'd just driven through. That's the time for another story. 222 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 2: But if I don't pick him up at the pickup 223 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 2: point at daylight, he has to wait twenty four hours 224 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 2: because I'll come, I'll becoming I need to get you 225 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 2: out of there because. 226 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: We are we talking generally here? 227 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: Or is this no? This was on the last job. 228 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 2: This was the last job, but the same rules followed. 229 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 2: The pickup point was at a certain time. If the 230 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: pickup point was not accessible, wait twenty four hours and 231 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 2: go a bit like in the army where they have 232 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: to be at the helicopter pickup point, you have times 233 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 2: to be picked up. If it doesn't happen, it's twenty 234 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 2: four hours, pick up twenty four hours. Because if I'm 235 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 2: not there, there's a reason why I'm not picking you up, 236 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 2: because it's for your safety, my safety, and everybody's safety. 237 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 2: I'm not coming in anyway. So I said to him 238 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 2: a few years ago, I said, so why didn't you 239 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 2: stay at the pickup point? Because they would have never 240 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 2: found you, and the after dark band Heed could have 241 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 2: assessed what you've done and decided what the future was. 242 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 2: I would have been stressing to him that it was 243 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: over and we walk away and it's all over, and 244 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 2: the war is over with the coppers and the chess 245 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: games and all that. Thank you lucky stars that we 246 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 2: can still walk away. But hopefully everything will be okay. Now, 247 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:52,840 Speaker 2: do you know what he said to me, I played 248 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 2: by the rules. If I shoot one of you guys, 249 00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: what does that mean I have given you right the 250 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: shoe me on site. 251 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 1: Well, you're going to have a ton of bricks coming 252 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: down on you, that's for sure. 253 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: Do you know what I said to him? He said, Oh, 254 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: they would have They would have shot me. Now I 255 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 2: think that is so too faced. I said to him immediately, 256 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: but you shot one of them, And now you tell 257 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 2: me you're going to run because you're worried they're going 258 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 2: to shoot you. If I shot one of you guys, 259 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 2: I would take my punishment, whatever that may be. 260 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: The old head each lived by the sword, died by 261 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: the sword. If you want to start engaging in gun battles, well, I'm. 262 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: Certainly exactly, but I would have. If I had shot 263 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: one of you guys. It would have been by accident, 264 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: maybe a warning shot that went wrong or something like that. 265 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 2: But I don't think that would have happened. And I've 266 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 2: never been really tested. I like to think that I 267 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 2: would have been good enough to avoid a full long confrontation. 268 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 2: I like to believe, And that's maybe one thing I 269 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 2: really don't want to even answer or even think about, 270 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 2: because it's horrific if I had to answer that. 271 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: It's a hard question to answer, isn't it. What would 272 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: you do if a cop if I had fronted you 273 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: with a gun and that was freedom or put the 274 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: bullet in me? What you must have process that in 275 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: your mind at some stage when you're going. 276 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 2: I think I really had belief in my strategies because 277 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 2: the strategy were going pretty good up to twenty three 278 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: jobs without a skeeric of evidence. So probably the father went. 279 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: You started to believe your strategies were working and that 280 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 2: you were a good tactician, and you were really playing 281 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 2: a game of chess with the coppers and they kept losing. 282 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: You said with your brother, like an ego kicked in. 283 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: That was it a false ego or belief that you 284 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: both might have had that, Okay, we can get away 285 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: of this. We're out smartening them. Look they're running around 286 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: like headless choks. 287 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,080 Speaker 2: No, because what I knew, because he didn't see this, 288 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 2: what I knew every time we started stealing a motorbike, 289 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: we were giving you one up. You would go motor 290 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 2: like from a motorbike shop and they would usually be 291 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: country motorbike shops. So what would that mean if if 292 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 2: you're you're you would dealt with serial crimes in your life. 293 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, we might meet the sharpest pencil in the packers 294 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: as cops. But if in a lead up to a 295 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: robbery that the motor bike gets stolen in the country town, 296 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: then the bank gets robbed, Yeah, do it twice? We 297 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: might start to see something three times we'll be on. 298 00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, I knew what he was doing before I 299 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 2: decided not to do anymore. I'll be honest. I tried 300 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 2: to talk him into changing our moo, not striking as 301 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 2: often and not striking as the after dark banded. Because 302 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 2: what people don't realize, and it's still with me today 303 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 2: that I stopped. Do you think because I stopped, I 304 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 2: was free? 305 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: Yeah? When you when you say stop, But like this 306 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 1: last job where the shooting, because he got arrested after that, 307 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: what were you doing looking to pick him up? You see, 308 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: you're out of it? 309 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 2: What happened? I said, I would never carry a gun again. 310 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 2: I would never and I wasn't going to work with 311 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 2: him again. But a friend of mine asked me if 312 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 2: they could borrow ten thousand to put together an inter 313 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 2: state truck business, and I went. Then I knew he 314 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 2: was about to pull a job, and he'd been averaging 315 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 2: about fifteen thousand, and I said to him, I'll give 316 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 2: you assistance, but I'm not in ever again. I need 317 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: ten thousand for a friend. Now, that was also false 318 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 2: loyalty to my brother right through the whole thing. And 319 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 2: then again when I look at it, that was false 320 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 2: loyalty to my friend because I was willing to go 321 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 2: back against my own decision to get ten thousand for 322 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 2: not even for me, it was for somebody else. 323 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 1: So I've heard of too many old school guys like 324 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 1: yourself that have come unstuck because of that misguided loyalty 325 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: and getting dragged back into things because look, you, I 326 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: was a favor. Just do this one thing, and time 327 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: and time again, people sitting here having a chat tell 328 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: that story. 329 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 2: You want to know the real story? Yeah, and my 330 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: brother knows it, so I can say this. I couldn't 331 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 2: actually look him in the eye at one stage and 332 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 2: say he worked on me and worked on me and 333 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 2: worked on me when I told him I'm out, So 334 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 2: I thought just to end this continual harassment of you've 335 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 2: got to do a job, you can't get out. I 336 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 2: never planned the job. He told me a job, and 337 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 2: a week before he did the last job, I agreed 338 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:41,080 Speaker 2: to go to do his job. Nobody knows this, but 339 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 2: it's important because it's got a lot to do with 340 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 2: peer group pressure, which is evil. 341 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: For it's a lesson that pass on to others too. 342 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: Absolutely. So I we take a motorbike to the area, 343 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 2: same as we normally did, in the back of a 344 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 2: horse float. So you can drive all around Australia with 345 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,679 Speaker 2: a horse float and you've got horses, you haven't got motorbikes. 346 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 2: Nobody's going to suspect a horse robbing a bank. They're 347 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 2: expecting if you have a motorbike on an open trailer 348 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,960 Speaker 2: that I saw that guy this morning driving a Falcon. 349 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: GT, I say the logic of your thinking. 350 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, So he takes me the area of a job. 351 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: The job was up at Hayfield. And this is the 352 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 2: honest gospel and something I've never spoken about before, but 353 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 2: I think these things are important. I knew I wasn't 354 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 2: going to pull the job. I sabotaged the bike, didn't 355 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 2: do the job right. He knows that the bank didn't 356 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 2: go down. Now, in a strange way, I carry a 357 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,199 Speaker 2: bit of guilt. If I carry that job out and 358 00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 2: I do it safely, maybe Cosh doesn't get shot. 359 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: I see the connection. 360 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I carry that and when the job doesn't 361 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 2: go down, he comes back to get me and I go, 362 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 2: I couldn't get the bike going. There's something wrong with it. 363 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 2: I knew exactly what was wrong with it. I did it. 364 00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 2: So in a strange way, I have a little bit 365 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 2: of guilt. 366 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: And say, the job where Kosh got. 367 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 2: That would have gone down to. 368 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: That because he had to do a job when you 369 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: guys were doing this. And then there's the after Dark Bandits. 370 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 1: You became the bandit even though there was two of you. 371 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: You became the most wanted person in Australia. How did 372 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: that feel? No, they're not most wanted because everyone liked you. 373 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,719 Speaker 1: Most wanted by the cops because you kept robbing places. 374 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 2: Well, in a strange way, I suppose I wear it 375 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 2: as a badge. Yeah, but I see this. I see 376 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 2: the funny side to it that compared to a lot 377 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 2: of other criminals, I'm a nervous, very non dangerous. So 378 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 2: it just shows how exaggerated the tag can be. 379 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: And I would imagine that it would have hit the 380 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 1: media and you would have been following the media that 381 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 1: the Australia's most wanted bandit. 382 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 2: I was looking at my face on the TV, going, God, 383 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 2: you're an ugly basard. You better grow a beard. 384 00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: I was going to ask you this question, but I 385 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,880 Speaker 1: don't want to get anyone in the trouble. But there's 386 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 1: probably statute of limitations. Did anyone else know outside you 387 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 1: and your brother? 388 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,679 Speaker 2: No, and my wife didn't know. And I'll tell you 389 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 2: the truth. I discussed this. We have even friends. How 390 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: stupid would I be to tell a wife that I'm 391 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 2: a bank robber. There's two bad angles. One have you 392 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 2: have you got children that play sport and you're worry 393 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,440 Speaker 2: about them hurting themselves playing sport. 394 00:20:24,760 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: Yeah. 395 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: Can you imagine a wife sitting at home while you're 396 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 2: doing a bank Yeah, that's that'd be pretty stressful. That's 397 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 2: one reason why you don't tell them. The other reason 398 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 2: is I'm a professional trained by my father and I'm 399 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: more akrim than most crims will ever be. But I 400 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 2: choose not to rob banks now, so you don't include 401 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 2: other people because this is the lesson of life for marriages, 402 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 2: break in divorce. Would you like your ex wife knowing 403 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 2: you were a bank robber and asking for more alimony? 404 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,239 Speaker 1: No? And look, I've got to be on this here. 405 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk about my ex wife. But 406 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,680 Speaker 1: from a CoP's point of view, they were ex partners. 407 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 1: Let's put it just in that term. Ex partners are 408 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: a great source of information because vengeance can be a 409 00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: terrible thing. And ah, we haven't got a breakthrough, but 410 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: this relationship's broken up, and let's go have a chat 411 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: with one. 412 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 2: There's an angle. There's an angle. 413 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: Okay, your brothers, he's got to rest it in the 414 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: lame way by Rick Hasey the cop there, and part 415 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: of your agreement between that he doesn't talk and you've 416 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 1: got at least twelve hours to said. 417 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 2: Hang on, no, there's no agreement. We had a very 418 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 2: heated discussion on Sunday about this. I'm going to put 419 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 2: this to you. Yeah, Now, all the bank robbers and 420 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 2: all the crooks you've ever met, Yeah, could you imagine 421 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 2: two of them sitting down and reaching agreement where you're 422 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: going to lag each other after twelve hours. 423 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: No, I was surprised that if I've missed it interpreted 424 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: that I thought not even going to say a word 425 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 1: for twelve hours, because I've had crooks before me that 426 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: have just sat there and just not said a word. 427 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: Real hard ass. 428 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 2: On Sunday, he tried to convince me that I agreed 429 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 2: to that. 430 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: That you give him up after twelve hours, or that 431 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 1: he gives you up after twelve Yeah. 432 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 2: So what sort of fool would I be to say 433 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 2: to somebody, Yeah, I'm cool with you giving me up 434 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 2: after twelve hours? What the stuff am I going? I've 435 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 2: cleaned that up, haven't I? What the stuff am I 436 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 2: going to do with twelve hours? I haven't got a passport. 437 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: I'm not part of your crew, and I'm not your brothers. 438 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: But I would have expected that if you get caught, 439 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: I'm not saying a word about you, and if vice 440 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: versa like, keep your mouth shut. 441 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 2: Well, I'll tell you the real story how the whole 442 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 2: thing was set up. There's two parts to crime, and 443 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 2: you know this, all right, we do the bank. What's 444 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 2: the second part of crime? Having alibis and getting away 445 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 2: with it. Even if you get caught, you've got to 446 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 2: beat the blue in court. Otherwise, why did you do it? Now? 447 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,879 Speaker 2: The day he shot the copper, I drove his car 448 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 2: to his horse trainer's place. And back in those days 449 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,879 Speaker 2: we're twins, we looked the same set up. Ali, I 450 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 2: said his alibi up from the front gate. Because I 451 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,399 Speaker 2: tooted the horn, he came out of his stable. I 452 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 2: waved to him. Even our voices are similar, and I've 453 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 2: yelled out, I'll be back later. So I've just given 454 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 2: him an alibi an hour before the bank, and the 455 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 2: bank goes down two and a half hours away. Now 456 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 2: I went home and my wife usually in the afternoon, 457 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 2: after picking up the children, and the women across the 458 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,880 Speaker 2: road picking up the children, they would sit in her 459 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,159 Speaker 2: lounge room and have a coffee. So I will the 460 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 2: bank was going down, I'm sitting across the road in 461 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:49,119 Speaker 2: somebody else's house. Now it's like the old ad do 462 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 2: you want snake steak knives? As well? The house was 463 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 2: the home of a copper. 464 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: Okay, so you're setting up the alibi. 465 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 2: That's how we worked. Yeah, And the whole point was, 466 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 2: and I'm going to give it to you. I don't 467 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 2: know if this would work or not. The original plan, 468 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 2: which I was willing to stick to but he didn't, 469 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: was that if he gets arrested and they don't shoot 470 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 2: him and he has not id the other brother has 471 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 2: probably got a bit of time to think what's going 472 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 2: to go down, right, because he's dead. It could have 473 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 2: been me that was dead, by the way, not just him. 474 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 2: She's my hand is starting to shake a little bit 475 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 2: talking about this. Then let's say they arrest him or 476 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 2: they arrest me. There'd be a court appearance, maybe two 477 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 2: days later or whatever, a bit of slap around, a 478 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 2: bit of questioning with the old phone book. If you 479 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 2: don't talk where the phone book? Right, go to court, 480 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 2: because the other twin will walk into court and say 481 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 2: not a word and just sit there. Now, you if 482 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 2: you were the resting officer and you saw a twin 483 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 2: brother sitting in the audience and you're trying to pint 484 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 2: it on this bloke, you have to pint it on 485 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 2: the correct brother in the right bank. Not as a necessory, 486 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 2: but you have to put the right brother in the bank. 487 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:10,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, you asked me the question. I can see the complications. 488 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: I saw it in myin career. I won't mention the 489 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: actual murder, but the murder where some twins were good 490 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 1: persons of interest for it. Then they cause a lot 491 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: of problems by the fact that they were identical identical twins. 492 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 2: Well, do you know what happened once he got arrested. 493 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 2: Let's just say he was helping it in their investigation. 494 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: Co operating. 495 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 2: I think, yeah. But anyway, so we're going to now 496 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 2: try and beat it in court because you have to pinpointous. 497 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 2: Now you know that that's going to be rather difficult. 498 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: Well, you've just got to be on reasonable doubt and 499 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: you walk free. 500 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 2: Now what happened was because he was, let's say, making 501 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 2: enough confessions, and the solicitor came in the next day. 502 00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 2: He said, he see what's going down. He said, you 503 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:06,400 Speaker 2: do realize that he's cooperated so much that you're now 504 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: the bad boy. You know what they said to him. 505 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 2: If you make the statements and plead guilty, it won't 506 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 2: come out in court and you'll be able to sell 507 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: a movie. You're laughing. 508 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: I'm laughing. I think, if they're going to come up 509 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: with something, come up with something better than that. But 510 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 1: I understand. 511 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, they got him his ego, they got him. 512 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 1: Well, I've always said in an interview room, you play 513 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 1: the person's weakness or you exploit that weakness. Now, if ego, 514 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: and I'm talking generally here, I'm not saying that's Pete's thing, 515 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: but if that's ego that sometimes, jeez, you are a good, 516 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 1: good bank robber. You've got the way of all these 517 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 1: And then oh, I actually did more. Yeah, you play 518 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 1: the people's. 519 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 2: Well he did. He told them, he told them about 520 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 2: a job that we did as a two man job. 521 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: They didn't know about it. Now, so what should have 522 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: happened is we should have been a really interesting court battle, 523 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 2: because a court batter gives you power with let's say, 524 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: a plea bargain. 525 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: Well, that's true. If it's a week a case, it's 526 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 1: easier to bargain. 527 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. Now, my solicitor said straight away, he's given him 528 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 2: enough evidence that they won't get you on twenty five 529 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 2: if you fight it. But they're going to give you 530 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: ten years for the first one because they're not going 531 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: to let you go, he said, So you've got nowhere 532 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 2: to go. Now. The next step was the fact that 533 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 2: these statements were so strong and you know, I'm not 534 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 2: going to say you'll fit people up, but if you 535 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 2: know the story, because he's given you so much information, 536 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 2: you can then go to other people and say, where 537 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 2: was Doug on a certain night because his brother says 538 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,199 Speaker 2: it was over here. They would have went to my 539 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 2: wife and said, on the night of such and such 540 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,479 Speaker 2: does your brother or sorry, was your husband home? And 541 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 2: she would have said no, they built houses in the 542 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 2: country and he goes away for a week at a time. 543 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 2: So I was fitted because my wife goes, oh, no, 544 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: he wasn't home that night. 545 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: How did that make you feel like we're pissed off 546 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: with your brother? 547 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 2: No, I'm a very understanding person. I'm not even angry 548 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 2: at my brother. You have to take responsibility because if 549 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 2: you keep blaming other people for your life, that means 550 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 2: you've got no control. 551 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: Well, Doug, that answers a lot to me, because I 552 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: was looking at your store and your brother's story, and 553 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: I thought, oh God, we're going to have an hour 554 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,679 Speaker 1: of you going that doggie did this, he did that, 555 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Yeah, the way I think a lot 556 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: of people would react. But I understand where you're coming 557 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: from and that you accept your responsibilities. You're not going 558 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: to judge others. Everyone's different, so I do get an 559 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:38,520 Speaker 1: understanding of what you're saying. 560 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: The greatest moment would be in my life if my 561 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 2: brother would just accept what he did and stop trying 562 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 2: to script the truth to hide his failures in life, 563 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 2: because my life had a lot of failures. The robberies, 564 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: they're failures. You know what I really think about bank 565 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 2: robbers and people in prison. I don't like you. I 566 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 2: really don't like you. I knocked around with some of 567 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 2: the heaviest criminals in Victoria's history, and I played tennis 568 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 2: with them on a tennis court. We're tennis players. I 569 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 2: don't like what you did off this court. While we're 570 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 2: on this court, we'll play tennis, but we will not 571 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,560 Speaker 2: be friends off this court. 572 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 1: It makes sense. And the conversation we had the other day, 573 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: you were talking about criminals and even the way you 574 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: look at there's criminals that commit crime to make money 575 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: for money, crime for money. Then there's criminals that commit 576 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: crimes of violence, of vengeance and all the other things 577 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: that may evate people that commit horrendous crimes, and you 578 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: deviate between those. 579 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 2: I try to explain it to people. I'm mixed with 580 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 2: Victoria's worse or in the jail with Victoria's worst sex 581 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: offenders and child molesters and all sorts of things. I said, 582 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 2: how did I get here? 583 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: What? Well? 584 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 2: I'm not this is not natural for me. 585 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: That was your first stint inside? Yes, how were you arrested? 586 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: When were you arrested? And what were you convicted of? 587 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 2: I was convicted of about twenty four to twenty five 588 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 2: armed robberies, use of a firearm, stealing motor cars. I 589 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: was arrested unarmed by about forty coppers. I didn't surrender. 590 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 2: I ran down a laneway off a beach and ran 591 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 2: into the side of a divvy van right. They jumped 592 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 2: on me like a rugby scrum NRL style Up there. 593 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 2: All I could hear was grab the bag. Grab the bag, 594 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 2: there's probably a gun in it. And all I can 595 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 2: think of while I'm lying under all these coppers was 596 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 2: the grab the gun. It's another oswell. And then I 597 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 2: was handcuffed to two coppers. They take me back to 598 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 2: Frankstin police station. They were told not to talk to me. 599 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 2: I kept talking to one of them because he was 600 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 2: shaking so badly and he wouldn't talk to me, and 601 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 2: I said, look, mate, I knowin not thatw to talk 602 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 2: to me, but were just settled down. I'm supposed to 603 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,440 Speaker 2: be the one that's nervous, so it. 604 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 1: Was nerves, not anger who was shaking you reckon. 605 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 2: I don't know what and you know what I was thinking. 606 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 2: And this is how stupid I am. There was a 607 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 2: window behind me, and I'm sitting on a desk and 608 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 2: as hard against the window. I was seen it myself. 609 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 2: Like in the movies, you see all sorts of things. 610 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 2: I thought, I wonder what happens if I spring up 611 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: and I throw myself out through the window. Will the 612 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 2: cuffs come off before I hit the ground? 613 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 1: Well? Probably not? Probably not. 614 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 2: Well that's the conclusion I reached before I sprang out 615 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 2: through the window backwards. Yeah, and look, I make light 616 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 2: of it. This is how I went through my jail. 617 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: I do like the fact that, like, jail's a very 618 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 1: personal experience, and everyone's experience in jail is a little 619 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: bit different. But I haven't heard your winge about it. 620 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 1: You've got a smile on your face, and there's horrific 621 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 1: things that happen in jail, as you know better than 622 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 1: I do. 623 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 2: But I'll tell you something. Right here, I'll tell you 624 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 2: how horrific it is. See that there?

And that's 630 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: for the eight young fellas that hung themselves because they 631 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 2: couldn't handle the brutality from prison guards, screws, or prisoners 632 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 2: trying to rape them. I wear that in honor of 633 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 2: those boys. 634 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: So your brother did time in the same prison. 635 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 2: Yes, and there was talk that was going to get 636 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 2: him right. And when I walked in and went into 637 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 2: the yard, and they were animal yards like cattle yards 638 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 2: in those days, I looked around and went, there's seventy 639 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 2: people that I don't know, even my brother. Would be 640 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 2: better to have him on my side if something's going 641 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 2: to go down. So he was the enemy. That was 642 00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 2: Watterson as bad as the unknown enemy. So can you 643 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 2: now understand I'm not worried about what you have done. 644 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 2: I'm worried about the next twelve years. 645 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 646 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 2: But what I underestimated or overestimated was during that twelve 647 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 2: years he would never back me up. 648 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm confused.

I do 656 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: understand where you're coming from. I'm just a little bit confused. 657 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: You're a very forgiving, forgiving man. 658 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 2: Well I didn't say I forgive. I understand. Yeah, yeah, 659 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 2: but I would process it or maybe more disappointment. 660 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, fair cool. So your art you're saying you'd 661 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 1: already broken away from the life of crime when you 662 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: went in. So when you're doing your time, you're ten 663 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: and a half years or twelve, subject to debate. Let's go, 664 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 1: we'll add another year. 665 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 2: Yep, we'll probably just served it. 666 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: You might go back in after this. I don't think 667 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:09,719 Speaker 1: I can sense you. I'd try. You were always you 668 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: weren't going to go back to the life of crime. 669 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: It wasn't sort of thinking. So it wasn't a watershed 670 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: moment in the jail that you thought, no, this life's 671 00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 1: not for me. You knew at the moment you walked in. 672 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 2: I'll give you something. Yeah, this is a word of 673 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 2: advice to everybody in the world, run by Dougie's rules. 674 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 2: When you make a decision and you feel your weakening 675 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:32,280 Speaker 2: on that decision, stand up and look in the mirror 676 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 2: and you ask yourself, yes, perhaps I can lie to 677 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 2: other people, but what sort of man lies to himself? 678 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 2: So if you make a decision, you know it's right. 679 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 2: I'll be honest. Three or four years after I was out, 680 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 2: was really hard pushing, and it's a tough life coming 681 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 2: out of twelve years of jail and having to settle 682 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 2: back down to earning a living. And I had a 683 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 2: moment where one night I sat there and thought about 684 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:00,840 Speaker 2: the future and I was trying to make a decision 685 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 2: do I continue on this righteous path? And I said, 686 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 2: it's pretty tough, And then I went, try a bit harder, Dougie, 687 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 2: try a bit harder, because I'm not going to lie 688 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,240 Speaker 2: to myself. And that's it. Every time it gets tough, 689 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 2: go back to what you believe was the correct decision, 690 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 2: and don't lie to yourself. And it was the right decision. 691 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 2: I go and watch my grandchildren play football. 692 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 1: Now, yeah, well, you know I'm looking at you, and 693 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: you don't look like you're a man. That's been broken 694 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 1: by life. There's a lot of positive, positive vibes. 695 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 2: You know, they're saying the army makes and breaks. 696 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:39,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 697 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 2: I had so much adventure and fun in jail. I 698 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 2: got shot at during an escape attempt. You know. The 699 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,919 Speaker 2: screw came down to my cell and haste vision that night, 700 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 2: knocked on the trap and said, Dougie, am I okay? 701 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 2: And at first I thought what's he talking about? Then 702 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 2: I got it. Our family will police you. He might 703 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 2: think I'll retaliate in twelve years time. 704 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,080 Speaker 1: Ah, I see where you're coming from. 705 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:09,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, we used to sit down years later and laugh 706 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 2: about that day. 707 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: So tell us about because you do meet up with 708 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: a lot of the corrective, not a lot that you 709 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 1: have socialized. I suppose having a beer with former creative 710 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 1: services officers, because what are you doing at the now 711 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,360 Speaker 1: the new Pentridge jail or it's not a jar anymore, 712 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,440 Speaker 1: it's a you describe it the bar. 713 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 2: Well, what I like to think is on educating people 714 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 2: on the brutality what you're going to expect if you 715 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 2: cross the blue line. I like to call it the 716 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 2: blue line that you cross, or the cost of crime. 717 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:47,280 Speaker 2: There's a cost of crime to both sides. I guarantee 718 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 2: you've had the cost of crime. 719 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so you. 720 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 2: Know what I'm talking about. Yeah, there's not really a 721 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 2: good story anywhere on either side because prison officers became depressed, 722 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 2: they became oken, marriages, all sorts of things because of 723 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 2: the stress of the situation. I went out with a 724 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 2: prison officer for three years, ten years after I got 725 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: out of jail, and I learned about what it was 726 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 2: like for those guys. She wasn't a guy, she was 727 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 2: a woman. 728 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: But I mean, yeah, you run with that. 729 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:22,319 Speaker 2: This is show you. I'll show your photos later. And 730 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,280 Speaker 2: I learn a lot about the jail from the other side, 731 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 2: about all the heavies that were giving people up. I 732 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 2: have a great understanding for the overall picture. Now as 733 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 2: far as have you forgotten the question you asked me 734 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 2: that I have, Oh what do I do with brew 735 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 2: dog at the jar? It's a very good platform to 736 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 2: raise what the price is of crime. If I want 737 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 2: to talk about car racing, well let's do it while 738 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 2: we watch Ellen Moffatt or Peter Brock or whatever. So 739 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 2: let's take it to where we have some feeling for it, 740 00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 2: and you can come and visit me and you about 741 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 2: what it's really like and what the cost will be. 742 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,839 Speaker 2: So there in that situation, I've bumped into a lot 743 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 2: of ex prison officers and they all want to put 744 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:12,040 Speaker 2: their arm around me, and I just jested with them, 745 00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 2: and I give them the same lip. I had a 746 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 2: governor that punished me very severely once and put me 747 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 2: in Haite Division, and they were taking photos of us, 748 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 2: and I had my arm around his shoulder like you 749 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 2: normally do in the old photos with and I was 750 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,520 Speaker 2: whispering in his ear when everybody was too far away 751 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 2: to here, I go, Remember that jelly night. You never 752 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 2: got me? So I like to give people a slap, 753 00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 2: even forty years later. And he laughed. He said, yeah, 754 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 2: I know, and we both had a laugh about it. 755 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: But not everyone would be capable of that. I would 756 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 1: imagine there's a lot of people that there's a resistance 757 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: as a blue and the green, and people are. 758 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 2: Sure, well, I like to say this, and you'll look 759 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 2: because you're you're a understanding because you've been in the 760 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:03,800 Speaker 2: We're not much different really, because we both understand. Right now, 761 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:06,440 Speaker 2: I'd like to say to people, why would I be 762 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:10,360 Speaker 2: angry at a copper? I don't remember coppers coming to 763 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 2: my house and dragging me into a bank and making 764 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,880 Speaker 2: me rob it. Now I can go the other way 765 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,399 Speaker 2: because my brother told me that I would not come 766 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 2: in I would be heavily armed. The armed robbery squad 767 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 2: held my family hostage in my house for four days. 768 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 2: My three and five year old son and daughter had 769 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 2: to sit in the bathroom all day, and I sometimes 770 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 2: wonder if they were old enough to comprehend that if 771 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: I walk through that door, I was going to be shot. 772 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 2: So there's always two sides. 773 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: So yeah, and I understand it would have been an 774 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,360 Speaker 1: intense situation when the cops are after you, exactly. 775 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: But I don't give them much other avenue. So who's 776 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,240 Speaker 2: responsible for what my children went through? 777 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,840 Speaker 1: Well, you do impress me in the fact that you 778 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: take ownership all the stuff when you look back at 779 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:10,760 Speaker 1: all the places that were robbed. I know and speaking 780 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:15,000 Speaker 1: to other people that bank robbers from the past didn't 781 00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,919 Speaker 1: fully appreciate the psychological damage. You walk out. You haven't 782 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,800 Speaker 1: showed anyone. You think, oh, well, I'm not a bad person. 783 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:24,359 Speaker 2: Well do you reflate the damage is done? 784 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:25,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, you reflect on that. 785 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 2: So the actual stress is perceived stress. But guess what 786 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 2: that is real. That is far more damaging. I'll tell 787 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 2: you a story from my side. A young fella that 788 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:43,399 Speaker 2: believed he was going to be beaten up the next 789 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,279 Speaker 2: day by a heavy and jail was so stressed he 790 00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 2: went to his cell with no mother to turn to, 791 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,840 Speaker 2: no phone call to talk to his brother or his 792 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 2: sister or his father. The stress of being beaten up 793 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 2: and only by hand, he hung himself that night. It's 794 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:07,839 Speaker 2: the perceived situation that stresses people. I jokingly say. Now, 795 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,399 Speaker 2: people say, could you rob a bank? I go, I could. 796 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 2: I'll tell you how I do it. I will do 797 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 2: the job. Let's say jobs should still be done because 798 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 2: we've got to go back to that era. I will 799 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 2: do the job. And as I walk through the door, 800 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 2: as I'm leaving with the cash, I would throw my 801 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 2: water pistol back over my head and go, I'm sorry, 802 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 2: but it was just a water pistol. Don't stress. I'm 803 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:36,720 Speaker 2: gone because now I understand the stress. But I didn't 804 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 2: perceive that stress because you know, I'm jovial about even 805 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 2: if I was robbed. So therefore I believed all army soldiers, Navy, 806 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 2: Air Force, police, bank tellers are trained. What I didn't 807 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 2: realize is they all have different personalities and levels of stress. 808 00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 2: There's probably police officers that suffer worse than me. Oh 809 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 2: absolutely more. I don't suffer because I accept all this 810 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,759 Speaker 2: and so you can't hurt me. Nobody in the world 811 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 2: can hurt me. I carry the demons. I'm my worst critic. 812 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 1: Well, you made that point earlier on that. You know, 813 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: how's your life or judge of in the last ten 814 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: seconds of your life and look back and can you 815 00:42:26,719 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 1: face yourself in the mirror and done everything I can? 816 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: What's a message you'd give for young and like, I 817 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 1: don't think no matter what. Maybe there's a retro thing. 818 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: The music comes back in fashion, clothing comes back in fashion. 819 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 1: Maybe robberies and banks come back in fashion. I do 820 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: so that'd be crazy, but I doubt it. But the 821 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: currency of crime now there's different type of crime. And 822 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: then back in the day and back twenty years ago. 823 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 1: But what message would you give to know young blake 824 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,799 Speaker 1: or girls these days that think it's sclamorous a life 825 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 1: of crime and where the consequences might be you end 826 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 1: up in prison or sorry, okry the guilt. 827 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,879 Speaker 2: Over the last thirty five years, I've trained many, many 828 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 2: young men as apprentices. All of them talk to me 829 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 2: with total freedom because they know who I am. There 830 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 2: was one apprentice that was selling party drugs pills, and 831 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 2: he came to me one day. I know what they're doing, 832 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 2: and I'm not going to condemn them. It's not my 833 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 2: role to condemn people. I will try and point out 834 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 2: what you'll get yourself into. I won't condemn you, and 835 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 2: I won't tell you what you can do with your life. 836 00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:36,520 Speaker 2: For all I know you're a bad person, but that's 837 00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:41,439 Speaker 2: your business. Now. This guy he comes to me on 838 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,760 Speaker 2: I think it was a Monday, and he said, oh, look, 839 00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 2: on a Friday night he met with three guys with 840 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,959 Speaker 2: one thousand dollars for some pills for the week under sell. 841 00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,840 Speaker 2: And he said, but what happened was they had machetes. 842 00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 2: And this is about ten years back, so machetes have 843 00:43:57,920 --> 00:44:02,560 Speaker 2: been around for a while. They are very intimidating piece 844 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,759 Speaker 2: of equipment. Now, he said, what they did was they 845 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 2: took my thousand dollars and think of many pills. And 846 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 2: I said, well, you're about to learn the lesson of crime. 847 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 2: What happens in crime. You can't control this direction. What 848 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: will happen is you have to make a decision. Now, 849 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,359 Speaker 2: are you going to take the next step and rearrange 850 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 2: with somebody else to meet these guys and you'll turn 851 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:29,719 Speaker 2: up with a bigger machete And then what they'll do 852 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 2: is they will arrange get back at you with a 853 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,720 Speaker 2: bigger machete, which might be a gun. So so today 854 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 2: I want you to think about if you're in or 855 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 2: you're out. He came back to me at three point thirty. 856 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 2: He said, Dug, I'm out. I said, I'm very happy 857 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:48,360 Speaker 2: for you. You made the right decision. Now, what happens 858 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,720 Speaker 2: is young people they start selling a bit of drugs 859 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 2: so they don't have to pay for their drugs. What 860 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,360 Speaker 2: they don't realize is you slowly get in deeper and 861 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 2: deeper and deeper, and I'm going to use the great 862 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:04,399 Speaker 2: Carl Williams. Williams tried to use the press to make 863 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:05,880 Speaker 2: some drugs and make some money. 864 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 1: He's pill press. 865 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 2: What happened was they found out and they shot him. 866 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 2: Carle probably asked himself, when Carl was doing the drugs 867 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,880 Speaker 2: at that stage, he didn't perceive himself as being a killer. 868 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: You agree, yeah, yeah, I think this is a reasonable 869 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 1: way of describing it. 870 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,879 Speaker 2: Then they shot him, so he made a decision to retaliate. 871 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 2: If Carl Williams walks away when he was shot, a 872 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,440 Speaker 2: lot of people don't die. But what happens in crime, 873 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 2: it keeps escalating out of control. Like my brother when 874 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,720 Speaker 2: his ego escalated him out of control and he shoots 875 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:53,400 Speaker 2: Ray Kosh. It's not this crime or that crime or 876 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 2: that crime. It happens. That's what happens in crime. You 877 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:03,000 Speaker 2: lose control and you maybe stupidly go to the next level. 878 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 2: That's it. That's what you have to tell young people. 879 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 1: Well, I think that's I haven't heard it spoken that way, 880 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 1: but that's a good breakdown of of course, in their 881 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: detail of how it can escalate, and before you know it, 882 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: you're in deeper than you care to be and the 883 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:24,960 Speaker 1: consequences are pretty heavy. Look, I will wrap up on 884 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: that note. Just the stuff you do with your ard, 885 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 1: if people want to reach out to you, and the 886 00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:31,840 Speaker 1: type of things. What are you doing these days? 887 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 2: Well, probably the only important thing some of the money 888 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 2: that I raised from art. I don't know if you 889 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:40,239 Speaker 2: can see that. That's a bluestone key ring with Ned 890 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 2: Kelly painted on it. 891 00:46:41,600 --> 00:46:42,880 Speaker 1: Okay, yep, now. 892 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:46,160 Speaker 2: We sell these things.
