Sin City: Crime & Corruption In... |
| 10am - 5pm @ Justice and Police Museum$4 - $8 | |
Sin City: Crime & Corruption In 20th-century Sydney In the second half of the 20th century, Sin City was in every way a fitting nickname for Sydney. Organised crime held a grip on the city and corruption was rife, infiltrating the top levels of politics, law and justice. Focusing on the 1940s to the 1980s, this exhibition will examine some of the audacious crimes, fascinating people and various vice trades - from suburban SP bookmakers and sly-grog sellers to narcotics dealers and flashy illegal casinos - that bankrolled corruption.
