In September 1988, 20-year-old Janine Balding was making her way home from work in Sydney when an ordinary evening took a horrifying turn. Abducted from Sutherland railway station by a group of young offenders, Janine was subjected to a brutal attack before being murdered and left near a dam at Minchinbury. The shocking nature of the crime — and the young ages of several of those responsible — would make the case one of the most confronting in New South Wales history.
In this episode, we look at who Janine was, the events surrounding her abduction and murder, the investigation that quickly led police to those responsible, and the controversial legal aftermath that continues decades later. We also explore the convictions and extraordinary sentences handed down, as well as the more recent questions raised around the conviction of Stephen “Shorty” Jamieson and DNA evidence in the case.
