Institutional racism continues to be a stumbling block to justice for the Bowraville murders

In the early 1990s, three Indigenous children went missing from the town of Bowraville within a period of five months. The children were from three different families that lived on the same street.

Two out of three of the children’s bodies were eventually found. The strikingly similar evidence of all three cases point to one suspect.

However, 28 years after the disappearances of these children, The NSW Court of Criminal Appeal rejects to retry these cases together and the families continue their fight for justice.
