Killing Jodie: How Australia's Most Elusive Murderer was Brought to JusticePenguin Books Australia, 2007 - 280 sider When women looked at him, what they saw was a little old man who couldn't possible hurt them . . . By the time he was arrested for the murder of Jodie Larcombe in the late 1980s, Daryl Suckling had escaped conviction more then once for his brutal assault on vulnerable young women. But without Jodie's body, prosecutors struggled to prove a homicide, and once again he was allowed to walk free. Unwilling to give up, two Sydney policemen spent nearly a decade fighting to bring the psychopathic killer to justice. Frustrated by legal obstacles and sheer bad luck, one officer resigned in disgust, but detectives eventually closed on Suckling as he stalked his next victim. |
