Docudrama about the trial and its impact, of the Waterloo Push's rape of 16 year old servant, Mary Jane Hicks, on 9 Sep 1886. As with the other programmes in the series, the focus is on both the trial and it's impact on Australian society.
In the third and last episode, Massacre at Myall Creek, we see the trials in 1838 of seven European settlers involved in the killing of about 30 unarmed Aborigines in northern NSW.
