Why the Ghost Train Fire is more Sinister than we Thought | PART 3 | Aus Crime

[@pioneercynthia1]

I'm completely torn between teary sadness and unmitigated rage.

[@lovingmayberry307]

Phenomenal journalism, I was glued to the screen! My thoughts and prayers to all the families effected by this heinous act, done for no other reason than greed! 🙏💙

[@beverlyhitchon4901]

This has been the most gripping documentary that I have watched in a long time. The research that all involved have put into the making of it, is true testimony to what real investigative journalism is all about and you have my utmost respect for what you have done. I have cried so much watching this, my heart just breaks for all the families and victims of this horrendous disaster. I'm also so angry at the injustice that those corrupt monsters involved will never be held accountable for what they did! It's just disgraceful. 🙏❤

[@helenoharawhite7704]

Such a powerful documentary and my heart breaks for the families. Justice needs to be complete and apologies given. Well done to all who helped bring this to the attention of us who knew nothing.

[@StephanyChills]

This is my newest obsession. The story telling is just another level compared to here in America

[@lovebutten87]

i agree !! im here every day watching a new one.. peace and blessings from easter oregon

[@marygoff3332]

This is one of the finest documentaries I've ever seen. Well put together, riveting.

[@nyteshayde1197]

The collection of interviews and evidence is just stunning. This was a masterclass.

[@MichelleHenry-lu9tn]

I've been waiting for part 3, I'm so enraged and saddened by this horrific betrayal. Injustice. Thank you for being a voice for the victims. I'd like to think the case will be reopened but corruption runs deep it appears. Disgusting.

[@loua1519]

If they were intent on setting a fire why not when the park's closed, not filled with kids? How the perpetrators continued on with their lives is beyond me.

[@jparker59able]

I was wondering the same thing. He still would have gotten away with it just like all the other fires. What a dark legacy Saffron and all his goons left their children and grandchildren.

[@cathybassett6432]

Clearly they wanted deaths.

[@mariekatherine5238]

@@jparker59ableThese type of criminals don’t care about kids or anybody but themselves.

[@Sunar87]

I think if they had done it while no one was at the park, the ride would have been rebuilt. With deaths, the park would have to close and the community would want it destroyed. which is what happened here. This is just based on my observation on a zillion of documentaries I have watched over the years. Once you see the pattern you know where its heading.

[@loua1519]

@Sunar87 I get it. Evil reason to intentionally burn little kids. This whole story, the entire lot of despicable people in charge, the coverup, got me sick.

[@chazoshea01]

I found this to be extremely hard to watch because it made me so angry. Innocent people died and their families are forever without justice because the authorities were corrupt and mobsters just wanted the land. It's sickening. I feel so sorry for everyone involved. Fantastic investigative work from the makers of this documentary. I found it enthralling

[@toomanythings]

What an incredible job Caro et al did. I was on the edge of my seat tonight here in Memphis TN, so very far away. You've done a spectacular thing, and I'm so sad but grateful that these loved ones got the truth. And Jason, you lived to help tell the tale, and get to the bottom of this. Love to you, sweety, I wish you and the families every good thing. I am off to Google so I can see if there's any progress on reopening the case. Thank you Australian Crime for sharing this.

[@cathybassett6432]

Excellent 3 part video. Thanks!

[@ejtappan1802]

It is very telling how many people were still afraid of bad things happening to them if they talked about the corruption of dead men.

[@barbdixon7785]

This is the best investigational journalism team I’ve ever seen. Amazing work! 🏆

[@AlexandryaJones93]

I’m absolutely floored right now, my heart goes out to the survivors and the victims loved ones as well… Just genuinely heart wrenching!!!

[@stephanieanderson2263]

I am completely torn between absolute sadness and absolute rage. Not only did the police cover up what actually happened to cause the fire but caused unimaginable pain for the families who lost someone important to them in that fire! It's just despicable

[@marygoff3332]

Very well said. Indeed.

[@deanas7063]

What a tragic story. Prayers for all the victims. Heartbreaking. Excellent journalism! Thank you for being a voice for those poor boys and the father, and families..💔 prayers for all involved. May justice e be served!

[@inipin510]

Thanks to all the people who were investigating this insane story. All the best to all the familymembers ands friends of these poor victims who are suffering to this day. ❤ I am very curious what Pt 3 brings…. Hopefully there will be some peace for everybody. 😔

[@lovingmayberry307]

This is part 3, I hope there is a part 4.

[@inipin510]

@@lovingmayberry307i commented before I saw the video. And yes there definitely has to be part 4: the interrogation and conviction of all the scumbags involved in this terrible act!

[@senoritoburrito2224]

this story is so tragic and absolutely infuriating. It seems so crazy, so spider-webbed in so many unexpected ways that it seems like some kind of tv drama with all its twists and turns. I could totally see it being dramatized under better circumstances i.e. if it wasn't so raw for the families. and man, my heart goes out to those families. I can't begin to imagine the grief and heartache, and the anger and relief of this truth being discovered after all this time. May those boys and that father rest in peace

[@angelcoleman4447]

Thank you for working so hard to find the answers. You’ve given a lot of people peace.

[@VintageMillyBooks]

Disgusted but not surprised. When it comes to money and power, these kinds of vile people are ruthless and uncaring. My deepest condolences to all victims.

[@pamelaleannefreeland9025]

I sincerely hope that a new inquest will open on this case. However, with the amount of high level corruption, even decades later, makes me think that justice still will be suspended. I truly hope I’m wrong. These people deserve justice. Finally.

[@loripassos4514]

Just finished watching this part 3. I watched the other two the days they came out. Literally glued to the TV. First of all Excellent documentary and a fanominal piece of investigative journalism! Blew me away! And so freaking Heartbreaking 💔😭💔 My prayers are lifted for those poor 7 innocent people, 6 of them children murdered for power and money. So horrific! My prayers are lifted for the family and friends of the victims and everyone affected by this act of perpetrated evil. But I get it. I understand this wicked world system and it's corruption and how all these types of heinous acts they all feed to the top and at the top is the Devil. The ruler of this world. Humanity's only Hope is Salvation through Jesus Christ. He is our Blessed Hope and He will return someday soon and rid the world of all this evil and wickedness! Believe in Jesus his death burial and resurrection for eternal life for we are all sinners fallen short of God's Glory. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@cathybassett6432]

One adult was also killed. A father hovering over his two boys, trying to protect them, as all three perished in the fire.

[@Juliett-we7tc]

Amazing...AMAZING documentary!!! If there are awards for these types of film this definatly should get top honors. We would hope that half a century after these horrible crimes happened, we would learn from the suffering it caused and make changes so it can't happen again. But sadly, corrupt government, justice systems, big businesses and elected officials corruption has only gotten far worse. No matter how many people die, or how many families are destroyed, it's all worth it to them so long as they can keep their precious power, and line their own pockets.

[@loridegrande2350]

You did a great job in this documentary thank you

[@dottierandall2475]

Great investigation‼️‼️‼️‼️. I watched all three videos, great, great‼️‼️👏👏👏👏

[@susanwaldron6831]

A very well put together documentary. I read that the Police have since offered a reward for any information but after this documentary what more information do they need? I couldn't find any information about a new Coroners Inquest. It's all so very sad and the victims, survivors and relatives all deserve an official answer and closure

[@LibbyAnn]

This is so heartbreaking and infuriating at the same time! All over a piece of land that someone wanted! God, please bless these families and grant them Your grace to move forward. 🙏🏻❤️

[@larrypaculdar3255]

I'm not even from there, and to hear how high up the ladder it went, is.. I can't say what I Really think of it, as YT would ban me. Those poor kids. sad. Thank you for the work on this.

[@ennds4636]

Unbelievable. I cannot imagine losing family members over something so shady and disgusting.

[@suegeew9727]

So was or will this be reopened to, if nothing else, correct history? Infuriating that those people died horrific deaths and the survivors have had unending grief all for some crook to get his way. This documentary makes it clear that corruption was as rampant then as it is now.

[@andrewgallier6452]

children died over land to develop my heart goes out to the families the total disregard for human life in this matter has put a lump in my throat R.I.P the poor victims of this crime

[@tacitusromanus8239]

Wow! Such a well investigated documentary. Always follow the power and the money. I hope that there will be a new inquest for these families so that they can finally get some closure.

[@niagee]

I originally watched this docuseries on Netflix. Best I’ve watched. It is superbly investigated and documented, and I hope it brings some final justice in this tragic case. Organized crime, corrupt judiciary and politicians. All scoundrels.

[@grahamsawyer831]

'crook as Rookwood' after i LMFAO made me curious....i find there is a Rookwood cemetery in Sydney. a most interesting place it would seem. good old KZbin eh? (+ many thanks for posting; a fascinating case)

[@marleneschulz118]

I truly wish that I could say I was shocked by this event, but unfortunately, it’s not even a small surprise. Honesty in financial matters has become an extremely rare commodity and sadly, we have gone so far as to honour those very people because they have financial success. If honesty were an animal, it would be on the critically endangered species list, yet we are doing nothing to protect it. When that happens to an animal species, it becomes extinct.

[@Richardjaymz]

Its disgusting, them poor kids lost their lives and that is uncalled for ...... all for land !

[@edmirgomes]

I've been waiting for this... finally.

[@vahvahdisco]

Please tell me there is a part 4 ?! I need to see justice prevail, so that those families can finally release the years of hurt

[@livingstone3718]

These families deserve justice in any form that can be had. We live in an evil world where people don’t care about anyone but themselves. I can only imagine all the things WE don’t know about that actually happens around the world each day with the people in power and higher positions. I know this can’t be the only story like this.

[@muffyjohnson7458]

Wow great documentary 👏

[@Sol-Cutta]

Wasn't the first time, would and will not be the last, the only difference , now it's billions and multi corps not single men with ambitions, and now it's not a few kids but the potential of all of us.

[@maryfrancesbeckerhaggerty5353]

It is totally incomprehensible to me how any human being having had been in any position of - law enforcement whether top dog all the way down to the bottom rung could have slept at night knowing that this cover up went on and no justice was served. I would of had to quit my job as a cop, lawyer, etc. Animals have more of a conscious. Shame on all of them. They will answer to a higher judge some day.

[@mariekatherine5238]

Who had the most to gain by this fire? Owners or managers of Luna Park? Insurance payouts? Corrupt cops using bikies (sp?) to torch the place, the mob, all greasing one another’s palms? What are the lives of a few kids and adults when there’s big money to be made?

[@sandrahunter5749]

Corrupt cops using bikers or it was the owner of the park staged this for insurance money using bikers. Big cover up in this horrible crime.

[@PredictedCyborg]

People's enjoyment, memories and even lives mean nothing in the face of money. Same story, repeated for years and years. :(

[@lisalappe6942]

Something that I don’t understand is why the fire was set, when the ride was running. Wouldn’t it have made more sense to wait until the park was closed?

[@AliValentine143]

I wonder if the tragedy of children's lost lives was their way of making sure thru P.R. the Abe Saffron company could for sure get the place shut down, combined with it being an "electrical" issue too boot they could claim the entire place was in need of too costly repairs for safety.

[@CAMDEC1217]

I have no words for the devastation here. So did this case ever get reopened?

[@theaverageDon]

17:34 with the advent of social media, especially these last couple years where Musk now owns Twitter/X and alternative media platforms for free speech, it has become increasingly more noticeable by a growing percentage of the public, specifically in developed Western nations, the ways in which land-grabs are being done in the wake of disasters. Whether these disasters are due to natural phenomenon, purposefully instigated by protected criminals, or simply allowed to occur through purposeful negligence. Maui, California wine country, Western NC and East Tenn, and countless other tragedies where it seems like the government is apathetic to the victims of these tragedies. Meanwhile, the victims who have perhaps lost everything in these tragedies, are pounced on by land vultures, like Blackrock and Bill Gates No different with this tragedy at Luna Park, where a piece of property is so valuable that if these unethical corporations can't simply buy it from the people they're willing to burn everything to the ground before swooping in and declare ownership, commonly backed by corrupt government bureaucrats and judicial officials
