Stay tuned for the huge announcement! This transported convict in 1856 set the robbery record that still stands today, and he got clean away. Please read, listen, like and follow via the link on my profile for the story, "Dick Austin's Great Ipswich Robbery." In 1861 the Toowoomba constabulary allowed a lot of prisoners to escape, and it changed our society for ever. Follow the link on my profile to read and hear the story, "Runaways of the Range.
