Australian True Crime Shortcut: The "Sharpie" Gangs
This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.
The Sharpies were probably Australia's most fashionable gang in 1960s/70s Australia.
Their clothing was custom made from European tailors and their hairstyles were unmistakable.
Our guest for today's episode is Author and Social Worker, Julie Mac. Julie herself was a proud Sharpie in the 1970s, and she's here to tell us who the Sharpies really were beyond the violent headlines.
