Utilizing court transcripts and interviews, this is the gripping account of a
courtroom drama that titillated the public during an era of crooked cops and
corporate fraud. When the Perth Mint was swindled out of more than a
half-million dollars worth of gold, the local police thought they had the
culprits: the Mickelberg brothers-Ray, Peter, and Brian. Already accused of
defrauding Australian millionaire Alan Bond by manufacturing a phony gold
nugget, the Mickelbergs were tried and convicted despite the fact that the gold
was never found. A cutting-edge analysis of the legal process and the trials and
tribulations of seeking justice in a corrupt system, this chronicle depicts the
nearly 30 years the Mickelbergs fought to prove their innocence and the
mysterious death of Brian and the violent and untimely ends of two corrupt
officers.
