Case 24
Russell Street Bombing
(Part 2)
Case 24
Russell Street Bombing Part 2
We left part one just after the government announced a 500 thousand dollar reward for any information to help solve the case.
It was hoped this large reward would be enough to entice a male caller to make contact again. He had already called numerous times before, claiming to know who the bombers were. Police weren’t sure if he was making it up or if he really did know something, but they needed to find out either way. Did the lure of the big reward work?
