In 1969, 20-year-old Lucille Butterworth disappeared from a bus stop in Tasmania. At first police thought the Miss Tasmania aspirant had run away to the mainland, and it would be weeks before they officially started a murder investigation. Seven years later, Geoffrey Charles Hunt was arrested and questioned over the rape and murder of a 24-year-old woman from Hobart, a crime he would ultimately serve 22 years in prison for.

Hunt confessed to the murder in plain English, but Aub Canning was so fixated on Lonergan that he disregarded it. If it weren't for Canning, there would have been justice for Lucille Butterworth and her family.

One might consider that Canning and Hunt’s father were friends. It was stated that Mr. Hunt had friends in high places. Perhaps he had some information on Canning that made it possible to get him to exclude his son. Either way, it is disgusting that the Butterworth family and poor Lucille will never get any justice.

When a case is spoiled early on (as this one was) and many years are allowed to pass it’s almost impossible to get a conviction. I think that Lucille’s brothers have made an extraordinary effort to have this man prosecuted. However at this point I think they have to be satisfied that they did their best by their sister and try to pretend that the 26 years he spent in prison for murdering the other girl will stand for Lucille too. He will live a miserable tortured existence until he too passes away and God will sort out the punishment.

Sadly the cops' tunnel vision has tainted the investigation, possibly beyond fixing. Cops listen to me, you need to be CAREFUL when you investigate. Question everything means question yourself as well. Your actions have consequences far downstream of your career. Make sure you do your job in a way that you have no regrets when you go.

I have nothing against the detectives who most recently interviewed Hunt, as they did the best they could with the methods they learned, but knowing what we know now far more advanced techniques may have been used to trick the man into giving up information. I pray that someone gets the chance to do this at some stage or that further evidence comes to light so the family might get some comfort before they die.

Fantastic documentary. Great tribute to the great Lucille soul. Now everyone know who killed her, but cannot prove it. One time police got chance but it was wasted just because of a police officer's ego. This video should be a lesson for all police training in all countries. What the inmates of a jail told about Hunt is perfectly correct, my instinct clearly telling it. My request to Hunt is Mr Hunt where ever you are, please go to the police and confess it. Otherwise God will not pardon you. My salutes to the brothers of Lucille for their great concern still after so many years. This is what we need right now in this world of artificial intelligence.

Hi Adam, this is the second case of gross miscarriage of justice that I know of which involves the Tasmanian police and DPP. The other one is the Sue Neil Fraser case where she was wrongly convicted of murder in 2009 for killing her husband Bob. After 13 years in jail she was released on parole in October 2022 and still maintains her innocence. She still has 10 years before her sentence is complete. Her full case is revealed on the podcast called who killed Bob along with mini TV shows that all prove that she could not have murdered her husband on board their yacht. Once again the Tasmanian police and the DPP all focused on her as the person who killed her husband and would not look into other suspects even though the DNA showed there was others. What is it with the Tasmanian authorities that get fixated on one line of inquiry and will not pursue other options when the facts prove it to be the case. These two cases cry out for an independent inquiry into the Tasmanian authorities and their gross miscarriage of justice in both cases. I hope you look into it and maybe do a Docco on it. Cheers from Newcastle Australia.

What a miscarriage of Justice Detective Inspector Canning I can only hope he never received one penny any type of pension after all he's failed to do his job on so many levels. This one family served many years of Injustice, as a mother I cannot imagine what his mother and father went through day-to-day year-to-year not knowing where this daughter was it is despicable anyone could do this to a family let alone a mother and father and brother. One can only assume this is not the only case or family the he failed miserably to do his job. It appears that he had a one-track mind I don't believe I would be too far off and thinking that this would be the only case this happens with. My heart truly bleeds for this MOTHER and FATHER not just for the Lost Years but the tears the moments without her the nights that they could not sleep...such a miscarriage of Justice. This detective was supposed to do his job and did the opposite turning his face the other direction one can only wonder if he had children of his own. What action would he have taken had it been his own child? My heart breaks for this family!

So they're gonna trust 3 different prisoners that could have made up the story just because they were in jail with the guy just so they could get out of prison on good terms. There's guys that confess to certain murders all the time and yet they're perfectly innocent they're are been known to be false confessions and yet they've ended up in jail for many years because they gave up and gave in to the cops interrogation after many hours of being stuck and yelled at. I'm not saying that hes not guilty but I'm not saying that he is either especially when they don't have enough evidence to prove that he actually did anything wrong. How do they know that he didn't lend his car to a friend or to Maybe one of his family members the night that she disappeared. And how do they know that there wasn't more than one of those cars at that time with the same color they don't know that for a fact that somebody else didn't have the same exact car in the area or could have been traveling through the area with the same exact car. There just is not enough evidence to put this guy behind bars in all honesty it's all complete hearsay.
@annpeerkat2020
@annpeerkat2020 Год назад
It sounds like you're threshing about to find reasons why Hunt is innocent. I understand that it's beyond doubt that hunt worked for the fiancee's family in the shop. It appears that hunt strenuously denied owning or driving the vehicle discussed in the video.... so the question how did we know he didn't lend the car to someone fall pretty flat!. Hunt isn't suggesting that he lent the car to someone. To flatly deny things that are clearly true creates great doubt about someone's credibility. Proof of a crime requires beyond reasonable doubt. How many trails of fact do you reckon should be ignored, to create reasonable doubt? "In all honesty it's all complete hearsay" is bullshit... perhaps you know that, perhaps you don't. When a person is prepared to testify in court about things they directly know from their own experience.... that's called a witness giving evidence.... not hearsay. It's not hearsay that hunt drove the car around that time, that he knew the victim, that he told prisoners about killing the victim, that he made a confession, that a car matching the description picked up the victim from the bus stop.... and on and on and on. In summary melvinn... you're either not very smart, or playing smart talking crap. If it's the first, you shouldn't be talking crap about something like this. If it's the second... you are a despicable person who hopefully will sink to the bottom of the pond of life soon.
