The Silk-Miller Police Murders

18, July 1998. The Green Papaya Restaurant, Surrey Hills,
Victoria.


A dozen staff were closing up for the night in the safe suburban
upper class neighbourhood in Melbourne’s East.


Just as the restaurant owner, Leon Dong, had his staff clear the
last plate of devoured lemon chicken from the tables, a pair of
masked armed robbers stormed into the venue. The older of the two
bandits, wearing a Richard Nixon mask, bellowed orders while
waving a Smith and Wesson revolver around. The younger bandit,
wearing a Ronald Reagan mask, bound the staff in the middle of
the restaurant with filament tape.


As Reagan scooped up their loot and wished the bound victims a
nice day, the older Nixon, with his paunchy belly and white
velcro tab runners turned back and said; ‘Tell the coppers
Lucifer was here...'


Join Shaun and Chloe in the second of a two-part episode
