The Gold Coast Hitchhiker Killer

A bus driver came forward to report that on Sunday, October 6, 1974, he'd been completing his route on Ipswich Road in Western Brisbane. As he passed the Oxley Police Academy, he saw two young women who matched the descriptions of Lorraine and Wendy sitting on the side of the road. A faded, light green, E.K. Holden pulled over and the women got in. Two men aged in their early 20s were sitting inside. Detectives appealed for anyone who had seen a similar vehicle in the area to come forward. The appeal caught the attention of Brisbane resident Anthony Doherty. He overheard them disagreeing about whether or not they should accept a ride. This sighting
