Über diesen Titel

A teenage shop assistant goes out dancing on a Friday night. She never comes home. A coal miner on his buck's night meets her at the disco. Hours later, he returns to the party alone. Kim Barry is in his spare room with her skull shattered by a spanner.

The next morning, while his brother slept in the next room, Graham Gene Potter carried Kim's body to the bathroom. He used a hacksaw to remove her head and fingers, making identification nearly impossible. Her torso was dumped below a mountain lookout at Jamberoo. Her head and fingers were found three weeks later in a garbage bag, along with Potter's own dressing gown and bedsheets [citation:1].

Potter served just fifteen years for the murder, then walked free in 1996 [citation:3]. What followed was a descent into organized crime. He ran drug shipments worth hundreds of millions, allegedly conspired to kill underworld figures, and in 2010, he vanished. For twelve years, he was Australia's most wanted man, hiding in plain sight with fat suits, wigs, and aliases like Josh Lawson and Peter Adams [citation:6].

In 2022, police finally caught up with him in a squalid house in Ravenshoe, Far North Queensland. Asked if he ever thought he would be caught, Potter laughed. No, he said [citation:5].

Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play because the man who cut off a teenager's fingers to hide his crime spent twelve years running from justice—and got caught living as Ned.
