“Twenty years ago a double murder shocked Melbourne – and the killer to this day has not been caught. The Easey Street murders became known around Australia as one of the most callous criminal acts of our time. On the night of January 10, 1977, Suzanne Armstrong and Susan Bartlett were repeatedly stabbed while in their Collingwood home. Suzanne was stabbed 29 times and Susan was stabbed 55 times. Police at the time were horrified at the frenzied attack. Greg Armstrong, Suzanne’s son, became famous at the time as the little baby sleeping in the house while the horrific murders took place. Now Greg is 21 and recently reunited with his father in Greece after many years. They Trusted Men is more than a story about an unsolved crime. It is also about an era that has long vanished – an era of comparative innocence”.
