Summary

"He was going to kill somebody from the age of 10. It was built into him…I knew he was on a one-way trip. I knew that it was just a matter of how long.” (Boris Milat, Ivan’s brother).

Detaining a man like Ivan Milat would be a monumental challenge. His obsession with firearms and hatred of state power were a highly volatile combination. Sending just a couple of men would result in two dead officers and a prime suspect on the run.

Fifty armed police officers surrounded Milat’s home on the day of his arrest. He would pay for practicing his favourite sport: hunting humans.

Backpackers were his favoured prey, lured into his car with an unassuming charm and taken to his gruesome playground, the Belanglo State Forest. This was where he subjected his victims to unspeakable torture before ending their lives in the most brutal way imaginable.

Outback Outlaw is an unflinching and uncompromising account of a man forever cemented in the annals of Australian true crime. Ryan Green’s riveting narrative draws the listeners into the real-life horror experienced by the victim, and has all the elements of a classic thriller.

Excellent

After listening to this story, you somewhat feel sorry for this chap! Grief is a raw emotion that can lead to all kinds of outcomes.
Ryan again has not failed to keep you on the edge of your seat waiting for chapter after chapter to go by finding out more and more about Ivan Milat! Don’t take my word for it, listen to it yourself, or read it for yourself, Ryan is the Michelin Chef of his chosen genre he never fails to captivate the listener or reader, you won’t be disappointed.

Fascinating

I have recently found Ryan Green books and have started listening to true crime mainly set in Australia, as a the time I didn't appreciate all the intricoes of the case. This was a deep dive into the story and part of me felt a little sorry - again the nature v nurture debate was there. I got involved in the story - it was the the perfect length no fluff. The narration really worked.
