ABOUT SYDNEY CRIME MUSEUM

Sydney Crime Museum is an online history of crime in Sydney, which has often affected the lives of ordinary people and popular culture as well as corrupting the processes of policing, justice and government.

Sydney was founded by criminals who for years formed a majority of its population. Various prohibitions have caused many citizens to engage in criminal behaviour over the subsequent years, most commonly illegal gambling and drinking. Today the War on Drugs continues to affect many lives in ways ranging from the trivial to the profound. Crime is an essential part of the city's history.

Our contributors include the great investigators Bob Bottom and Al McCoy, and the wonderfully insightful Sydney artist Michael Fitzjames.
