概要

 In 1838, on a remote cattle station in northern New South Wales, at least 28 Wirrayaraay people were murdered by a gang of convict stockmen and settlers. But unlike most such massacres on the Australian frontier, this time the killers were brought to trial. Lucas and Luna explore the events at Myall Creek, the role of Governor George Gipps and Attorney General John Plunkett in pursuing justice, and the aftermath that saw seven men hanged for the murders. They also examine the subsequent backlash—the settlers who petitioned for clemency, the racist press coverage, and the effect on the Aboriginal population. The episode touches on the Wirrayaraay people, the Liverpool Plains region, and the broader context of frontier violence in colonial Australia. It asks what this rare case of legal prosecution reveals about colonial justice and its limits. #MyallCreekMassacre #Wirrayaraay #JohnPlunkett #GeorgeGipps #FrontierJustice #AustralianHistory #1838 #LiverpoolPlains #AboriginalHistory #ColonialAustralia #NSW #Massacre #Gunnedah #HenryDangar #WilliamHobbs #MountedPolice #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
