Underbelly Files: Tell Them Lucifer Was Here Page #3

---

Centre at 0439 hours.

You will catch these men.

PAu:
I would like you aboard

Lorimer, if you're willing.

You'd be running your own crew,

reporting to me and Graeme Collins.

Thank you.

Dean Thomas is on board.

Is that "Bull' Thomas's boy?

How old is he? He's old enough.

Donald, you know Graeme Collins, my 2IC?

Graeme. How are you?

So any developments, Paul?

It's early days.

Just wanna let you know my boys are

ready and willing to man the phones

if you're shorthanded.

Special Operations Group swapping

assault rifles for phones? Nice.

When you can start? Oh, immediately.

Here we go, here we go.

From interstate and overseas.

Family. friends. colleagues and

strangers gathered to farewell

Sergeant Gary Silk.

It was a heartbreaking return to

the academy from which he graduated

13 years ago.

Outside. Thousands heard Ian Silk

tell of his brother's dedication

to the force.

Finally. the utimate honour

- shouder to shouder for more than a kilometre.

Hundreds of officers reflected

on the utimate sacrifice

they're all at risk of being asked to pay.

?? He will my shield

And portion be...

Premier Jeff Kennett

had for the killers this message.

Just be assured that all

the resources of the state

will be brought to bear to find

you out and to bring you to trial.

Endures...

I can't promise an arrest.

But what I can offer is a guarantee that

we will never stop trying to find them.

We can't ask for more than that.

Gary wouldn't expect more than that.

No, nor would Rod.

He understood how difficult

investigations can be.

PAu:
You know the score.

If we don't identify the

offenders within 48 hours,

it could take years.

I need a team that can run all day,

people who never get tired of chasing the ball

- is that you?

Yes.

Uh, Dean Thomas, everyone.

Remember, you are working for your mates,

not just Gary Silk and Rod Miller.

You are working for every

serving officer in Victoria.

You're also working for

Constable Damian Eyre...

...and Constable Steve Tynan.

You know their names.

10 years ago, they were

murdered in cold blood

in Walsh Street, South Yarra.

And we never locked

anyone up for that one.

This time, we will.

I've asked these gentlemen to help

us. Introduce yourselves, please.

We're from Armed

Robbers. Mark Butterworth.

Steve Beanland. Joe D'Alo.

Hamada was our op,

and before anybody says we're

responsible, we already know that.

No matter how hard you blokes

work to solve this thing,

we'll work harder

- that's a promise.

Graeme.

OK... the first rule of Taskforce Lorimer

is do not assume anything.

You check everything. You

check everything twice.

At this moment, we've

got twin lines of inquiry.
